Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

Very long, with some great performances, and some very surreal moments - in an almost down south Twin Peaks manner. Enjoyed it!

Best line ... "this place (Savannah) - it's like Gone With the Wind on Mescalin".

Lovely sunny day... so I went to see The Witch

Excellent and completely unnerving.

Sorry to say, I found this very disappointing. It was nicely atmospheric in places. As a period film it looked the part, it was well acted and the attention to detail was good, but as a horror film it wasn't anywhere near scary enough. Nothing more than mildly creepy. I quite liked the ending though.

I've thought about it a lot since I watched it. I was initially a bit underwhelmed but it's grown on me considerably since then. Yeah, good movie.

Spoiler: The scene with...

Sounds right up my alleyway. Might go see it today if I can face the outside.

Just back. Loved it. Much more of a creepy folk story than a horror.

Two Movies in the last few days

Anomalisa
The latest from Charlie Kaufman. Clever and technically impressive stop motion animation, but it left me on such a downer afterwards. 2.5 Stars

Sing Street
The latest from John Carney. Good craic, nice performances. The music/ songs were very school-band - but that was the point I suppose. 3.5 Stars

Saw two movies back to back last night. 10 Cloverfield Lane was really good. John Goodman was great in it.

Triple 9 wasn't good at all.

 

[David Kronenbourg]

High Rise. I really liked it. Dark and funny. Good performances and a great soundtrack.

 

[Hector Grey]

Compliance. Film wasn't terrific, lost momentum a bit, but the story it's based on is fucking nuts. I question the intelligence of these people.

Saw three movies recently...

Joy starring Jennifer Lawrence was thoroughly enjoyable, well acted true story.

Hachi: A Dogs Tale was another true story based on a loyal Japanese dog starring Richard Gere and Joan Allen. Again this was another enjoyable little tearjerker of a movie. Didn't think I'd like it - but enjoy it I did
.

The third one was The Intern with Bobby De Niro which was over long , a bit schmaltzy and not my cuppa tea.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

it left me on such a downer afterwards.

I think that's the point

 

[Jim Daniels]

I think that's the point

Yeah, but I usually get a bit more out of his movies... on an emotional level
