I enjoyed it as well and I agree about the plot, there were times were I was a bit lost. They were also a bit tiresome with the whole relativity thing. We heard it once, twice is fine but no need to say it over and over again. But I came out of the theatre pleased because it´s a good movie and it´s breathtaking to watch. And all the nods (or pretty much blatant references) to 2001: A space Odyssey were more than welcome, specially in that cheek-in-tongue kinda way.

Most recently saw "Force Majeure" -- one of the most visually meticulous, almost geometrically organized films in recent memory. A very simple premise is taken to great lengths to examine the characters' psyches and to create truly agonizing, thornily awkward, hilarious moments.

Watched Raging Bull finally. What was supposed to be so amazing about it? Was it a time/place thing? Because it certainly did not age well, the way say Deerhunter has.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Saw Inherent Vice -- the film directed and screen-written by Paul Thomas Anderson, based on the novel by beloved author Thomas Pynchon -- at a screening at the Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles last night. Staggering cast brilliantly directed by PT. Every time a beloved face came on screen, the crowd applauded preemptively; by the scene's end, the actor had earned it. Anchored by Joaquin Phoenix and Josh Brolin, the film also features Martin Short, Benecio Del Toro, Joanna Newsom (who also narrates, a shrewd use of her talents), Jenna Malone, Michael K. Williams (aka Omar Little aka Chalky White), Owen Wilson, Reese Whitherspoon, and others.
Pynchon's plot is frenetic and convoluted, but even when you're lost (and you likely will be at points), you'll be laughing. (This is especially true if you enjoy narcotic or sexual humor; ideally, both.) The movie sits somewhere between Pulp Fiction and Fear And Loathing and Anderson's own Boogie Nights for its mix of vice, eccentric characters and shag carpets.
Recommended, if only for to know the contours of what will likely be a (sub)cultural touchstone.

Originally posted by kurta View PostJake Gyllenhaal was nominated for an Independent Spirit award for his work in that film. At the very least, you have to admire his physical commitment to his craft: From wan in Nightcrawler to jacked beyond belief in the forthcoming Southpaw -- this image just circulated this week (via Deadline):
