The Film Club

For those who like movies

The same idea as a book club only with movies. Once a month a movie will be chosen by me for everyone to watch after which they can post comments on what they thought about the movie.

All right, i have an interesting movie you should check out: Fur with Nicole Kidman and Robert Downey Jr. It was really wierd but great. Tell me what you all think. It came out, i believe in 2006, so it shouldn't be hard to find.

Ok. so I think I have let this slide a little bit, mostly because I am lazy, but also because there didn't seem to be a lot of interest there except for a few people...

I think what I will do is let someone else pick the movie for the month of August, so anyone interested, please make some suggestions...

So I went and saw Shrek the Third last night and while it was good, I don't really think it was as good as the first or second one. It did seem to have some positive messages in it though, with a focus on women as role models, believing in yourself and of course children. Anyway, it's worth a look if you like the series...

Hmmm, I will have to look around for this one. I haven't heard of it, but the synopsis online seems pretty interesting.

i guess this is a really old thread, but i'll respond anyway.

i got to give a presentation on _In the Mood_ and _2046_ at school, and one thing that i became fascinated by while viewing the dvds over and over, was how different things seemed after i decided to cheat and watch all the deleted scenes on the special features. it was sort of amazing because some of the really big ellipses that are left open in the film make a bit more sense after you see what was deleted (like when mr. chow suddenly falls sick, or when mrs. chan starts feeling guilty), but after you go back and re-watch the original cut, you see that everything that got removed is there anyway -- only it's told through a turn of the head, a cloud of smoke, a slight gesture or hesitation.

this is one of my favorite movies of all time, with or without the deleted scenes.
and though it may be cheating (i don't know, is it cheating? where does the film end?), i'd still recommend watching the special features just to see mr. chow in the 70s with a mustache and some wicked shades!

Well, that movie is a classic. I figured you would start with something harder to find, or new to theaters. Oh, well, i love movies. This one makes Audrey Hepburn a star! I love her in this film, she was funny. I want to watch it again now, that i'm talking about it. Ok, next movie.
