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.

The Beasts, a Spanish thriller now playing on MUBI. Extremely tense and well made

Yep. Definitely caught me by surprise. And really I didn't care if it "worked" or not. I enjoyed the journey too much.tragabigzanda wrote:Corker of an ending. Want to watch it again with the twist coloring things.tragabigzanda wrote:No Way Out (1987). Wanted to try this after it was featured on the Rewatchables. It’s very good! Even Costner does a solid job. I miss when Hollywood made movies like this.

Manhunter. A bit of a mixed bag, but overall I enjoyed it. Tom Noonan looked 57 years old.

Wow Love lies Bleeding was really excellent. Both leads are phenomenal and the A24-ness of it completely works to its advantage

Re: What movies are you watching?
Well I generally really enjoyed the style (minus some of the music but that’s not really fair). Around the middle it just lost some steam for me, as I was really into the first 45 minutes or so. It’s really just some minor quibbles with some of the dialogue and screenplay. Mann is a great director though.tragabigzanda wrote:when you say mixed, what didn't you like?lennytheweedwhacker wrote:Manhunter. A bit of a mixed bag, but overall I enjoyed it.

I felt like Petersen could have been better in scenes toward the end when he’s trying to channel Leckter. He was okay overall but the worst of the main actors

Re: What movies are you watching?
I love Manhunter, specially if you compare it to Red Dragon and you see how pale and mainstream that version is. Mann´s is on full aesthetic mission on this movie, and it works beatifully. Noonan is amazing on this one. What an amazing actor he is.

It always surprises me how little Noonan has actually been in.VinylGuy wrote:I love Manhunter, specially if you compare it to Red Dragon and you see how pale and mainstream that version is.

I remember nothing about Red Dragon, aside from the cast
