About Me

1st note :

Hence I`m not a film critic, I don`t always seek to align my comments with the others, pretending that I fully agree/understand some allegation/representation in form of a cinematic idea, even when I don`t do so .Or that I am forced to fully embrace that director`s vision/idea (which by the way could be that experimental – that any assumptions with one reality that cannot be otherwise than dark and ferocious would utterly be dismissed ) for the sake that it`s avant-garde and experimental . If it expresses (dares to) some universal truth I`d like to see how that speaks to me.

counter – note No.1: some universal truths come from cinema. some others don`t, therefore are enjoyable (mis)interpretations.

2nd note : i still believe there are some universal truths ( values) waiting to be re-discovered.

counter – note No. 2 : the good news: some of the universal truths lay in cinema ( waiting to be re-discovered. )

Buffalo Soldiers

I agree with you, quite a cool and smart film. I remember seeing it some years ago . It`s obviously no masterpiece, but the burning flames in the end really fitted well in an otherwise burning & melting conclusion. I will put it honorably alongside a shelf with "Fight Club " and "Three Kings ".

Thanks, I appreciate it. Great "Illusional Attempt" list by the way, underseen essentials indeed.

Hey did you find me through my Buffalo Soldier's post? I'm glad you enjoy it as well too. Too bad it was released right before 9/11 and didn't get much exposure because it was pulled from theatres for fear of any criticism of the US Military. Even though it's not really a specific indightment of the US Military. It's a story that could have happened in any military or any instituation where people were thriving for conflict.
