Have you seen any of his pre-Prisoners stuff, and is it any good?

I haven't. I've heard good things, but I don't trust them.

I loved Enemy. Its just nonsense, but it looks amazing and yeah, there is a very creepy feeling that i adore.

Stalker on the big screen last night. God this fucking movie is so incredible.

My problem with Stalker was that I read the book first. The movie was brilliant but it was just a case of seeing one before the other.

That new restoration looks revelatory

Day of the Outlaw. What a fascinating movie. Some of those scenes are going to be seared in my memory. Robert Ryan and Burl Ives were remarkable actors.

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.

Probably my favorite kind of movie. I never tire of them. And there are so many good ones.

Speaking of, I rewatched The Naked Spur yesterday. Hadn't seen it in a long time. That movie is staggeringly gorgeous to look at. And filmed in Colorado! I think I might try to find some of the filming locations.

Yeah Naked Spur is a good one.

I am also excited to see Life. However, 47 Meters Down holds no interest for me whatsoever.

I gotta tell ya, the trailer had me scratching my head. I've been avoiding it. It looks very different from the book, which is fine, but has me concerned. But I really dig Villenueve. And Gyllenhaal. So I feel like I should give it a shot.

Especially now that I'm more removed from the book. It's not so fresh in my mind.
So I just read some quotes from Villeneuve in which he talks about some of the bold choices he made that deviate from the book. His rationale seemed totally reasonable. So I'd enjoy hearing your thoughts on the film if you ever get to watching it.

Also, this film was like a watered-down cocktail of Hitchcock and Cronenberg. Which is not to imply that it was bad; just that the two influences loomed large, even if Villeneuve couldn't quite match their execution.

Nice. I've been thinking more and more about this movie recently. I'm reading Saramago's travel guide/journal about Portugal and it's got me revisiting his fiction work in my mind. My wife mentioned The Double and I told her about this movie. So, I think we might try to track it down sooner than later. I'll let you know how I feel once I see it.

Still kicking myself that I missed the restoration at Alamo last month.

Man, I have a ton of fun with Mike & Dave. I get why someone would hate it but I think it's really fun.
