Watched LINCOLN , Would not have seeked it out but it was the secret screening at NYFF so we had to make do.
Daniel Day Lewis is amazing as always but the film was lackluster ,it was also 3 hours too long ( supposedly not finished I would say Mr Spielberg knock it down by 1 hour) The film is mainly about his political strategy and the build up to passing the 13th ... too much sap
Maybe Iam just not a Spielberg fan he is like the Frank Gehry of film!
When Spielberg isn't making a film for children, he's making a film for manchildren.
Re-watched Carlito's Way the other day. That film is an underrated masterpiece. The final portion leading up to the scene at Grand Central is brilliant. Better than Scarface imo.

agreed, much much better than scarface which is overrated. I re-watched 'Obsession' (1976) recently, it's a nice mannerist thriller (typical of De Palma's hitchcockian period). It features the young John Lithgow who is a fantastic vilain (he also plays the main character in Raising Cain, which is my favorite DP's movie).
Fuck you and your viewpoint, I hate this depoliticized environment where every opinion should be respected, no matter how moronic. My avatar was chosen just for you, die in a ditch fucker.
^I remember seeing "Brother" years ago. My brother was just starting to learn Russian so he had a culture binge. I love the main character's weird obsession with trying to find a Nautilus Pompilius CD. Good movie nonetheless.
I thought this documentary was an interesting commentary on the modern democratization of culture and how it effects art/music/literature/etc.
