Outstanding.

Just watched this, courtesy of the new Masters of Cinema release, and what can I say other than it was great. I expected it to be a schlocky b movie, but it was technically a bit of a marvel, and soundtracked by one of the most interesting scores I've ever heard.

I'm fed up of writing about this.

After a bumpy start I found myself engrossed for 90 minutes or so, only to wake up this morning filled with nothing.

35 Shots of Rum

The finest film of the year, with perhaps the single most wonderful scene of the decade in the shape of the "nightshift" sequence.

As a major fan of Gilliam's work I really enjoyed The Imaginarium, alas I don't think it will play particularly well to an audience of non-believers!

Mischief Night

this was shot near my house, and is the follow up to a tv special.

Mischief Night

i was pleasently surprised to find just how rounded this film was, especially as i was expecting it to be flawed as a debut. i absolutely adored a film that managed to outdo even von trier's own europa. it was such a rich and beautiful looking film.

The Element of Crime

saw this tonight and really enjoyed it.

Europa

an absolutely beautiful and unique looking film. visually reminds me of the work of guy maddin, a compliment if ever there was one.

Funny Games

i found funny games to be incredibly patronising, and almost judgemental towards the viewer. its a shame because i adore hidden (cache).

My Winnipeg

probably the best film of 2008, in my not so humble opinion! an absolute joy.

Bottle Rocket

there is a moment during 'bottle rocket' that portrays joy in possibly the most pure and beautiful manner. the point in question involves luke wilson's ''anthony'' having a telephone conversation with a translator, and without ruining the film for anyone is simply wonderful.

Bottle Rocket

the final act of this film has an overwhelmingly emotional effect on me. im not sure what it is exactly, chances are its the father/son relationship element, but its very powerful. aside from that 'the life aquatic' is perhaps anderson's weakest film, although considering its company within his body of work thats not a particularly bad thing.

The Red Shoes

i had the honour of spending an afternoon with cinematographer jack cardiff a few years back. this is by far his greatest achievement, a stunning piece of cinema.

Breathless

seeing breathless at 16 years old provoked a response in me that resonates still.
