The Conversation. Freak. Yes.
Savvy
haha, Zach, I just watched that TODAY!!! Great film!!!
I know, Rocky! Great as effing hell, man!
It was four bucks over at Blockbuster, barely used! Good deal, if I must say so!
Savvy
That’s neat-o cool awesome!
Haha! Very interesting phrase!!
Also, although I didn’t buy these, I rented Apocalypse Now, INLAND EMPIRE, The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant, and La Bella Noiseuse from Vulcan Video last night, so I’m excited as hell.
Savvy
What is this, Vulcan Video??? Sounds cool…
Rocky, it is cool as hell. Basically, it’s a video store in which they have virtually everything you could want when searching for movies. I mean, if there’s a copy of it out there in the US (even if it is now discontinued), then they have it. They also have VHS’s, but, sadly, I don’t have a VHS player, or I could watch Celie and Julie Go Boating…
Savvy
I think I have a VHS player in my attic
Nice. My mom has one, but I just moved out on my own, and so I, sadly, do not have that piece of hardware. Seeing Celine and Julie is worth it, though. Maybe I’ll rent it, and then go back home three hours away to watch it! HAHA!
Savvy
Just got The Leopard…on blu-ray!
WHAT!?!?!?
I didn’t know they put it out on Bluray…
Savvy
It seems it’s a BFI release, and can only be got in HMV.

A Nos Amours
Europa
Fat Girl
First Criterion BN sale purchase. There might be one or two more purchases on my horizon before the sale ends but since Xmas is coming up, I’ll probably have to keep my DVD buying down to a minimum.
Thanks to the 25% coupon for non-members, these were all $15 each!
Star Trek on BD
Last Chance Harvey on BD
Downhill Racer
Star Trek is one of the few fun Hollywood films to come out this year. Downhill Racer is a total blind buy. And Last Chance Harvey was surprisingly good if you like Thompson and Hoffman as much as I do (and the BD was only $10 at Best Buy).
It’s Christmas time!
