I never regret watching Ang Lee's stuff just because it's at least always different. I'll have to check it out.

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.

Joe.

David Gordon Green's best movie? Im not sure, but hell if this one is fucking good. Nicolas Cage is amazing here...absolutely amazing. The score is great, the photography is great...wow, what a somber, violent, quiet movie he did.

I like Joe. It's sorta like if Mud didn't suck. But I don't love it. I doubt Green will ever top George Washington.

You know how you can tell it's too early? You read something like this and have to think about it seriously for a moment.

The cruelty between the couple I could live with, even though their relationship is clearly toxic and terrible. It's the cruelty they dish out to everyone around them, and the way the movie sets up a perspective in which this is is supposed to be funny and the people they abuse are made to look crazy, that I can't stomach. Ugh. What a despicable movie.
