Blind Beast: Yasuzo Masumara
1 recommendation
"It could have been a first date, I don't know, but there I was at the video rental place with, uh lets just call her "Golden Eye", "Golden Eye" turns to me and says " I need a movie suggestion, something that's like 80's, something penetrating, something thats eye opening, maybe naughty...". I turned and a few minutes later returned with "Blind Beast". About the film: One of the chief purveyor..."
Giants & Toys: Yasuzo Masumura
1 recommendation
"In 2008 many big businesses failed, some of us took our trade to the street to tout our products directly to the people. In the market place one is directly confronted with a roaring competition which has been playing out for generations. All those who choose to enter this world should take note from "Giants & Toys". About this movie: This visually stunning satire from Yasuzo Masumura on th..."
Manji: Yasuzo Masumura
1 recommendation
"Some times your wife or your girlfriend finds themselves attracted to women but they just don't know what it's like, seems like a new trend but it's not, for a fictionalized look at this subject Yasuzo Masumura's "Manji" is spot on. It's from the radical 60's Japan, but it the story is as relevant today as it was a thousand years ago. About the film: The dutiful, unhappy wife of a lawyer falls..."
JOSE SARAMAGO Blindness
1 recommendation
"I'm a bit dissapointed that the film adaptation of this disturbing book changed the lead character from a man to a woman. Which makes me imagine that the changed a lot of other things as well. If your interested in the story, I highly recommend you read the book first. Its the story of a man who has retained his sight in a world paralyzed by blindness. This doesn't necessarily turn out to his adva..."

"I have fond memories of this 80's comedy. In a nutshell Goldie Hawn is a snobby, wealthy woman of leisure. During one of her yacht trips she falls overboard and is rescued by a backwoods blue color worker that she has rubbed the wrong way. They hate each other. Lucky for him, she has amnesia and he convinces her that she's his wife and the mother of his mangey kids. Hawn then goes on a wild ride f..."
To Die For
1 recommendation
"This is a 4-star thriller by Gus Van Sant! Theres only 3 films with Nicole Kidman in them that I can stomach. This is number two. She does an outstanding job playing a wickedly ambition small town woman with ambitions of newscaster fame. She seduces a naive teenager, Joaquin Pheonix, who becomes entangled in her web of deceit and murder. Naughty thriller/ comedy."

"Infidelity. Lust. An affair. Shame on YOU! But, you know what? I can see how it might happen."
Malcolm X

"Training Day? Training Day?!!!! Pffffft. Denzel Washington was robbed of the recognition he deserved for his portrayal of one of the most seminal figures in American history. This movie is absolutely stellar. Spike Lee at his best."
Dancer in the Dark
1 recommendation
"This is a REALLY good movie...... one problem. Its depressing. And I don't mean make you cry depressing. I mean existential, sleep for 24 hours, apathetic depression. With that said I highly recommend you watch this film immediately after something really, really great happens. That way when you crash you won't fall into the deepest chasm of despair. You'll merely just tumble down a slightly steep..."
Election

"Reese Witherspoon has actually done a few highly entertaining dark teen comedies. This is another goodie about an obnoxious teenage over achiever running for class president, and the teacher who would like nothing more than to see her fail. (Reese Witherspoon, Matthew Broderick and Chris Klein)"
There Will Be Blood

"I love movies. I love good movies. I love bad movies. I love loud bad movies. This is an ASTOUNDING, quiet movie. The best movie I saw this year. Action heads, slow your roll and switch gears because its time for some food for thought. Daniel Day Lewis cannot be challenged. He's the master of his craft as a sociopathic oil tycoon who will go through anyone who gets in his way. His nemesis, a youn..."
Stardust
3 recommendations
"I'm a huge Neil Gaiman fan, and his novella Stardust, illustrated by Charles Vess, is really fun and definitely among the best. The movie is a nice adaptation of the story, and they do a very good job of keeping the heart of the story intact, while re-writing it to make sense on screen. In the process you get a minor character reworked to be Robert DeNiro as a flamboyant pirate of the sky, which..."
Jawbreaker
1 recommendation
"As far as the onslaught of teen movies go, theres only a handful worth taking note of. Jawbreaker is one of them. A dark teen comedy."
