Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.
Also very relevant today, but Shia is totally miscasted here. Ryan Gosling would have been so good. Douglas is awesome. Kinda funny there are a few actors from the first one as well.

It was cute. It gets a little too ridiculous at the end, but I enjoyed it. It feels like a throwback, but at the same time doesn't stick to the same old romcom formula.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I feel I should defend my decision to eat at Subway yesterday: it's the closest food place to my apartment besides a poke bowl place, which as far as I can tell, consists of assorted grasses and raw fish in a bowl. I can't seriously be expected to eat that.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Just catching up, here's the last week of movies -
Barry Lyndon (1975) - just fantastic. I wasn't expecting Barry to be such a shit heel, or for the movie to be so funny. Beautifully shot. My favorite character was Quinn
Wild Things (1998) - I saw this movie quite a few times as a teenager, but only remembered a few scenes. It was a lot better than I expected. A really trashy good time.
Cape Fear (1991) - I watched and enjoyed the original a few weeks ago. This one was better, mostly for the slightly more fleshed out the story.
From Here to Eternity (1953) - Loved this. I wasn't aware that Sinatra won an Oscar for this when I watched it and was surprised by his performance. Burt Lancaster and Montgomery, Clift were great as well.
The Killing (1956)- I've watched quite a few noir movies lately and this might have been my favorite. A tight story, interesting structure and a great ending.
Atlantic City (1980) - this was a strange movie. I enjoyed it a lot. Burt Lancaster did a great job playing a washed up loser, while still maintaining his dignity.
3 Days of the Condor (1976) - just a fantastic paranoid 70s thriller. One of my favorite genres. It's hard to believe how handsome Robert Redford is.

I loved Barry Lyndon. Had no clue what to expect going in.

I started to watch Condor a few months ago but didn't pull the trigger. I'll put it back on my list that I don't really have because of Tom.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

But Subway has some good cookies though.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I really loved Barry Lyndon as well and was also surprised by it. I always unfairly assumed it was a boring period piece, and that it might be a bit of a chore to sit though. But it was quite the opposite. I should have known better. I'll never doubt Mr. Kubrick again.
