Thanks for the trailer JLB. :) That’s the best post of this awful sewing circle of a thread.

So what’s the response at Cannes been then?

Good but not ecstatic. Some say it’s too “talky” which means that it might get the same reception as A Dangerous Method. I’m all in.

^^Yeah but talky with a bit of strangeness is potentially good!!

Dangerous Method was too dry for me.

^ It definitely has strangeness but I think it’s still fairly subdued (Cronenberg said something to the effect that a subdued style is not an absence of style). Apparently, he reproduces much of the Delillo dialogue straight up (and the final scene with Giamatti and Pattinson that takes place in one room and is almost 15 minutes long). Yeah, I seem to be one of the select few who really dug A Dangerous Method.
