demarcated: Filmography

This film holds the dubious honor of being the worst I've ever seen. Nothing about it even makes sense. It's great.

The Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massarce

Heathers

I remembered this as being funnier than it is. Well, Winona is great.

Heathers

This was some dark shit for Disney. I was a weird kid though and loved it. I still enjoy it now.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

The Pacific

If we have to compare to Band of Brothers, I have to say I found that series so incredibly boring I couldn't finish. There was a kind of nostalgic, softened distance to its portrayal of war. This series however has a terrible emotional intimacy to it. Just searing and relentless, grisly business. The scene where Sledge goes into battle for the first time was incredibly well done.

The Pacific

overlong but it's a really fantastic portrayal of anxiety on olsen's part. she really sells the film for me

Martha Marcy May Marlene

Midnight in Paris

It's magical that people like this movie so much. Okay it's mildly amusing but really really limited in scope and characterization and the whole nostalgia thing is just embarrassing.

Lancelot du Lac

Everyone in this film is terrible at acting. Also horses whinny every five seconds. There's something about it though. I like the dialogue if not always the delivery, and how it is patently staid while still impressing the fact upon the viewer that 'shit is getting real'.

    Haha that's because Bresson used non-actors in his films later in his career. Which I find distracting at times to be honest.

    You don't know anything about Bresson's method.

    lol thank goodness I have ALL IS GRACE to inform me about the truth of cinema. truly I know nothing nothing nothing! (I hope the sarcasm is detectable here)

    I have no interest in what you know about cinema (or cooking either) or what you don't know. All I see is that you don't have any idea of Bresson's method, obviously. He made 13 masterpieces and in each film he developed what he had in mind which is evident perfectly in his last film, l'Argent. He was truly an auteur, writing with camerawork and sounds with a distinuished style. Thanks God we have Bresson films.

    Actually I am well aware of Bresson's method and I still maintain that the fact he didn't use actors in this film was distracting and detrimental to the overall quality. Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean I "know nothing of his method". Come on dude.

Bridesmaids

I feel like I would have been more into this if it weren't so insistent on humiliating its central female character. I wanted to like it more but I got such terrible second-hand embarrassment I couldn't finish.

Bridesmaids

I'm a bit obsessed with this film; to me it's sort of a noble failure. Saw it at two in the morning at a time in my life where I was depressed. I don't believe all the fragments come together but there's something about it all.

Je t'aime, je t'aime

Attack the Block

This film deserves so much more credit.

Attack the Block

I just love the female lead in this

Young Goethe in Love

Waiting for Forever

I don't think this film realizes fully what it's getting into. Not much of a romance, but on family and dying childhood idealism it's not bad. Also I firmly believe we're supposed to read Will Donner as not all there mentally.

Waiting for Forever

Jane Eyre

It's an overall decent version (really nice colors, but maybe it overly focused on them?), but W O W at Mia Wasikowska. She's exquisite in this.

Jane Eyre

The writing is kind of lazy in parts, but the parts with John Lithgow are moving and the special effects are mindblowing. It makes for genuinely discomfiting viewing until the final half-hour, which does stretch credibility. They gave Freida Pinto NOTHING to do though. She was like set-dressing, which is pretty disappointing. WHAT R WOMEN WE DON'T NEED ANY IN OUR MOVIE

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

The Notebook

I award this film no stars, despite the appeal of Ryan Gosling, in general and shirtless, and the hilarity of the mustache worn by the actor who played Allie's father. It is not so much a movie as it is a horrible montage of every romantic-movie cliche of the past several decades. I wasn't expecting much, and it still managed to disappoint.

The Notebook

This film is so emotionally resonant...and yet I feel it could have been EVEN better. I will still be thinking it over for days and weeks to come.

Seven

Brad Pitt cannot act and David Fincher hates women. That's all I can conclude from this movie (combined with my analysis of Fight Club and The Social Network).

Seven

The Happening

Quite honestly this is one of the worst films of all time.

Scream

This movie holds up pretty well. One of the rare horror movies that manages to be both scary and INTENTIONALLY funny.

Scream

Crash

This film's depiction of complicated social-racial issues is like being talked down to by an unintelligent and petulant child.

Robin Hood

It was so inexplicably dark that I couldn't see what was going on half the time. My two stars are for Cate Blanchett, mostly.

The Social Network

Unbearably mediocre, shallow, and sexist. For me, the only highlight was Andrew Garfield.

L'eclisse

I was looking forward to this film and I greatly enjoyed it... up to the unexpected (for me) blackface scene. Wow. No.

Band of Outsiders

How great is that moment when they all decide to be silent and Godard cuts all the sound. This movie is truly cinematic joy. Yet, it's not my favorite of his- there are many I like more.

The Lady Vanishes

This film is such great fun. I'm in love.

The Fighter

Not brilliant but very solid, realistic and moving, and with some great performances.

The King's Speech

I actually found the cinematography unimaginative, but Firth gives good performance as always.

Nights of Cabiria

I want to build a shrine to Giulietta Masina's face.

Nights of Cabiria

Bacall totally makes this film. She steams up the screen and I loved her effortless cool. It's like Bogart and Bacall invented sexual chemistry.
