“People on this board are so conservative. I bet most of you couldn’t allow yourself to think of one bad thing about Welles. Ridiculous.”
this mightbe the dumbest thing yet said on this thread. conservativism has nothing to do with this. are you fckng serious with that shit? nottomention, everyone who’s been attacking your godawful opinion has already conceded at least one welles film they’re not so fond of. your opinion is useless because it has nothing backing it up other than ‘i no like it’ + ‘others gooder’ = weetard.
bottle rocket is stoopid. it doesnt have that flare for design. i swear wes anderson is gay. all that attention to detail on the outfits and set design. rushmore is where his flat as cardboard style started. i like that one. its so precise its adorable. his other films dont do anything for me.
“I think that the sex in Nicolas Roeg’s early films is great. Even if the sex is a major part in the story (as in Bad timing) or if it’s not, (like in Don’t look now) Roeg treats it with sensibility and respect.”
the silence. first time i saw it, in theater, i was totaly blown away by how sad,sexy,subtle,seductive, sensational the actresses were. theres so much going on in that film just thinkng about it blows my minddddd . luv it
helllllooo, my name is rachel, but you may call me SHE. i bide my time in either newyork or la, because i have great love/hate for both cities at different times of years. i love film and filmmakers and i hope one day to be an actresss extraordinareee.
i think its basterds just because of dialect. when you pronounce the word bastard do you say bass-tard or bass-turd. meet in the middle and you get basterd.
i think tarentino is a moon faced dork whos style only sells because its fast paced and typically deals with drugs sex and murder.
