June & July Videos
Jul. 29th, 2004 11:21 pmEverything here but the last three were from Greencine. Join them. I love them... I never have to leave my apartment. Ever. Except to work.
May - If I ever decide to date again, this will be on my "you must appreciate this movie if you want to spend any amount of time with me" list. That should keep me pretty much single til I'm dead.
Session 9 - Creepy as hell movie FILMED in the abandoned Danvers State hospital. Brilliant. Subtle. Haunting.
Six Days in Roswell - A documentary about the culture that's built up in Roswell NM in the wake of "the crash".
Don't Look Now 1973 Donald Southerland atmospheric thriller. Nice for the footage of Venice. And oh yeah, THAT scene. Not all that scandalous in the wake of what's come since but ground breaking for its time.
The Core Journey to the Center of the Earth for people who know what's really down there: lava. Cool pseudoscience, good acting. Fun.
Possession Two literary scholars, two Victorian poets. Four lives linked by journals and notes, mysteries and desire. An amazing adaptation of what I would have imagained an unfilmable novel- poems, diaries, and scholarly papers don't make for the best movie material, but they did it. Worth the rental. THEN read the Booker Prize winning novel.
Wendigo - Cooler in premise than execution. Not badly executed, but with a title like Wendigo, well, I expect quite a bit.
The Whole Wide World - Vincent D'Onofrio as Robert E. Howard, romanced by Renee Zellweger. Yes, THAT Robert E. Howard. It gives a degree of tragic depth to Howard's writing that makes it much more readable.
The Weather Underground - Damn. The world I was born into was seriously messed up. Homegrown hippie terrorists. Another docu.
Reno 9-11- It's like cops, but DELIBERATELY funny.
Millennium - "This is who we are."
The Universal Frankensten Movies - always classics. "Love Dead, Hate Living."
In the theater:
Fahrenheit 9/11
I, Robot
The Stepford Wives
