Just saw this movie on the weekend. Its an lo-fi arthouse thingy by Vincent Gallo who's got an album on Warp - (thats why I got it) Its pretty cool. Ok the basic story is a tad far-fetched but then its not a real story-driven piece but a moody abstract montage of americana imagery with really fucking cool lighting and an excellent soundtrack. Gallo has got real presence and the film reminded me of Vim Venders "Paris Texas" - one of me all time faves, or the Coen Bro's "Blood Simple" in atmosphere and mood. another thing, during the film in the shootout/stripclub scene, there's a funky ass kicking tune that Squarepusher plays on his 96 breezeblock set. Who the fuck is this by? Gallo himself? checked the soundtrack but couldnt find a sample of it to hear. Maybe its by "Yes". Does anyone know? |
||||||||

found it "Heart Of The Sunrise" - by Yes. A fucking gorgeous jazzy track played by squarepusher on the breezeblock '96. |

|
umm |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
couöd someone please explain to me what arthouse actually means. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i tried googling but the results are mostly companies. this term has bothered me quite some time already. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd guess: "a house with art in it" ( = museum) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't mean museum.. I meant gallery... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wasn't asking for guesses or associations. i too can make those. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its when the "house" ie the cinema is filled with people who would rather see something as art than a traditional film |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't think Buffalo '66 was very artsy, just very well done. I watched it twice in 2 days because I liked it so much... "PI" on the other hand... that was artsy and gave me a terrible headache and I almost needed to vomit with these crazy cameramovements and black/white combination. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what a weird bunch of people that would be... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jesus.... arthouse, indie, lo-fi, non-mainstream etc e...you get the gist.... i watched it twice too- love the colours and the editing and the peripheral characters. The freeze-frame shootout piece was incredible and a perfect example of using it in just the right context. Was Gallo the first to do this? It was 1998 after all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Gallo looks extremely haunting on the posters/advertisements/packaging. Really creepy, his eyes are tools of the Devil. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
strange movie |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apperantly he's quite aware of that. in some interview, he said he knows he's ugly...the interviewer replied that women find him attractive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sweet. i didn't know vincent gallo had a cameo in goodfellas. |
||||||||
|
|

explain yourself this instant |

i have huge excitement for his new film: the brown bunny. him and chloe sevigny. again he wrote, directed and starred in this film....it played at cannes last year., many said it was the worst film ever shown, i believe it was still good. it was in an unfinisheed state. gallo vowed to never work again. he put a curse on roger ebert after he said nasty things. it was quite a lot of excitement, it is now finished. it has played in asia, the trailer is beautiful beautiful http://www.galloappreciation.com/media/trailerbb.html gallo is a genious his music is gorgeous. the brown bunny plays in august in new york so does he. thank you |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, Chloe Sevigny, now I know why he doesn't like Harmony Korine. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think harmony doesn't like him... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. looking forward to "brown bunny". tis strange it getting the abuse it did at Cannes. Did he shit on a frenchman or something? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess ppl at canes didn't expect to watch porn during main festival. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No he just decided to look like Charles fucking Darwin wherever he goes and act like the biggest pompous asshole you could ever imagine. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
apparently Chloe Sevigny sucks off Gallo in the film, on camera. and it isn't acted. if I remember correctly, afterwards Sevigny felt Gallo had abused her, she never really wanted to do it, something like that. even Gallo has come out and said himself that the film sucks. that crazy, overrated hipster (himself doing the most of the overrating, btw).. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he walked in to booing for his press conference but left under applause, wich is cool. apparently after cannes he went on to change bits and edit it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
like the music we love.. who gives 2 fucks bout the hype. if it appeals to me, like B66, cool... if not...no worries. (the real-felatio angle is a bit titilating though...got to be done i guess!) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's kind of funny, because Gallo himself does seem to love the hype, being very instrumental in creating it. the. a. one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, people who grow up on the street, and become successful (famous) later in their life, are usually that way... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm... i couldn't tell if the trailler looked really nice, or like total pretentious wank. i kept thinking easy rider lo fi handheld and whatnot. i'm really curious now. "he walked in to booing for his press conference but left under applause" could you offer a bit more info? link? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wouldn't know where to look for a link, a mate of mine is a radio journalist and he was there. and he said there was booing but that in the end they applauded him !! (though not the film i think :) ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the "brown bunny" trailer looks cool. i'm a sucker for sun-spots and road movies and shakey cams and 8mm. cool. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it's the only info i know.... but it says it all no? what more do you wanna know? in cannes . i get annoyed by all this "prove yourself" business you know? or was it just kind curiousity? i dunno anymore, i loose it sometimes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha. just idle curiosity, i wasn't challenging you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
sorry for the confusion. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i just read of bb that sounded pretty bad. basically, the guy says the blowjob scene at the very end was it's only redeeming factor. now i'm even more curious. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah sorry sir.......:) bit to sensitive sometimes |
||||||||
|
|
