Dumplings by Fruit Chan is good...Miriam Yeung is usually annoying but she's pretty effective in a surprising dramatic turn. haven't watched the other two entries in that trilogy, although i'm tempted to check out the Miike i love his work

Call me crazy, but I saw Speed Racer and absolutely loved it. I saw it opening day and went out to get another group of people to see it again the very next.

That's good to hear, did it do the cartoon justice? I was going to see it yesterday but my father and uncle want to see too... it will be a family affair.

A Film Worth Watching: Le Scaphandre Et Le Papillon (The Diving Bell And Butterfly)



I think all fashion aficionados would enjoy this movie. Its hilarious, deep, and meaningful. It taps into all the major parts of your emotions....</p>

</p>

The Diving Bell and Butterfly</p>

The true story of Elle Magazine editor Jean-Dominique Bauby who suffers a stroke
and has to live with an almost totally paralyzed body; only his left
eye isn't paralyzed. Jean-Dominique Bauby, who, in 1995 at the age of 43, suffered a stroke
that paralyzed his entire body, except his left eye. Using that eye to
blink out his memoir, Bauby eloquently described the aspects of his
interior world, from the psychological torment of being trapped inside
his body to his imagined stories from lands he'd only visited in his
mind.

Hmm, I didnt like it much. I found it quite flat, emotionally, perhaps I was expecting too much or am too sentimental.I found it difficult to engage with the guy, I think partly because the direction was so overwrought. It seemed like a little art project just extended out into feature length. It also has a totally ludicrous Austin Powers type sceneinvolvoing a photo shoot and Azzedine Alaia - yeah baby!

Yes, it's really quite something. We were walking to the Rusty Knot and he was hanging out in front of the house in his bathrobe..had moved one block to the restaurant by the time we were heading home. Absolutely classic. [86]

Watching Heart of the Dog for the nth time. What an incredible film - I wish there was one with English subtitles. The book is a must read - another Bulgakov's masterpiece.
