I apologize if it seems some things were perhaps cut short, but I edited out an hour of material, so some things HAD to be cut short.

ReplyDeleteHope it lives up to your expectations, Simon!
DeleteAw, I loved Hunger! Maybe I'm seeing something that you didn't...or maybe I'm just a snob. Haha.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I LOVE the new show format. And that you talked about Michael Fassbender. He has been in a lot of quality films.
I definitely agree on Fish Tank. I love that movie as much as the next person, but I didn't like the direction that it was going in towards the end. Katie Jarvis was really good, wasn't she? Apparently she was invited to audition when one of the casting agents saw her fighting with her boyfriend at a train station. What ever problems she was having with her boyfriend, I'm glad they happened.
I just watched Shame last week and I pretty much love it more than anything else in my life right now. Which may sound sad, but WOW, what a movie. And what a performance from Fassy. How he wasn't nominated for an Oscar is beyond me.
Really fine episode!
Thanks for the feedback, Stevee! Glad the new format is welcome. It was a pretty good week of watching overall. As for Hunger, I give it the Into the Wild award. I don't necessarily think it a bad film, but one where I couldn't get behind the protagonist's choices, though I'm suppose to be sympathizing with him. Granted, I wasn't as impressed with the quality of Hunger, but had I liked or at least agreed with Sands' decision to starve himself, I could have overlooked some of the lesser qualities of the filmmaking.
