BONE TOMAHAWK IS pretty good.

I don't know why I haven't watched that yet.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Room.

Well, it was fine..the kid is amazing, Brie Larson is good..Joan Allen too (what happened to her face though), and its well shot and paced. But why the fuck did they ruined everything with that over the top score at the end? AWFUL. My god, are americans so stupid they need fuckin violins??? CMON CRY, CRY SOME MORE, CMON WE ARE SHOWING YOU VICTIMS HERE...CMON THIS IS SERIOUS. ITS FUCKIN OSCAR BAIT WE NEED THIS.

Stupid hollywood.

The score is part of the child's inner mind. It's to let us know the movie is from his perspective. It's definitely a stylistic and narrative choice, not just there for no reason.

What? At the end of the movie/?? You are kiddin right...The only reason is to underline what an intense moment they are living.
Of course, the filmmaker dont trust the audience so...LETS GO GUYS, VIOLINS FOR EVERYONE!!!

To the best of my recollection, the score only plays when her son is thinking about his conception of the world. So in this case, it represents a moment of closure. That's how I thought about it, anyway.

Re-watching The Master today.

It's been about 2 years since I've watched this. Still rules.

"Bone Tomahawk" was fun. I have developed some weird affection for Kurt Russell now that he's older.

This may be strange to say, but he does a lot of good acting with his eyes.

[Orpheus]

Spotlight was so good. Just a total naturalistic acting master class.

Very nice take, friend. And it helps me with the final moment a bit. So thanks for that.

I desperately wanted quiet in those final moments. No music. Just the sounds of the wind and the trees and the grass. I thought that would have been powerful and profound. The score at the end bugged me. But your interpretation makes good sense.

Continuing with my Spielberg kick. Amistad was magnificent and War Horse wasn't far behind. This guy's body of work is staggering.

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. 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.

I've never been a big Spielberg fan. I'll revisit him someday and see what I see. But I'm glad you're finding a lot to love in his work, verm.

Next up are Duel (haven't seen since I was a kid) and The Sugarland Express (never seen). Then I'm gonna rewatch Minority Report, War of the Worlds, and Munich, none of which I've seen since my teenage years.

Of everyone here, I would expect you to connect with him the most. I'm surprised you haven't. I hope you revisit him soon.

Joey, let's hang out and watch Spielberg together.

Sure! Sounds like a good time. I'd be all a bout that. But can we skip Jaws, though please?
