I just don't like this illustrative cinema. You know, where
every scene moves the story forward and there is no place
for atmosphere, just events. Kind of like novels for reading
on a train. It's a very good example of how you should make
your films to able to afford another one, but for me it's
just empty and boring. Another example of such cinema is
Lang's Scarlet Street, which gets a 3/10 by the way.

But coming to think of it, it easily deserves 8/10, since it
is exceptionally well done for the genre.

i think it's not a film meant to contain much "atmosphere" .
to me it's something like a story about ambition and
resistance. you can't let big corporations kill people. the
message and the way roberts performed that character - both
were most entertaining. she's not my fav actress but she
deserved that oscar for sure.

and, oh, it's actually 5/5 but my co-viewer kindly asked me
to add her points to my review.

I had a Jean Vigo night recently:

À propos de Nice - 10/10 - It's basicly a shorter french
version of "A Man Wih a Movie Camera" with a Windowlicker
dance scene.

Jean Taris, Swimming Champion - 9/10
Zero for Conduct - 9/10
L'Atalante - 8/10

Obara, you know what I want to see here... a 10/10!!!

I just saw The 40 Year Old Virgin: 9/10

It sure is an exceptionally funny film! That's just what I
needed to restore my faith in American comedy, now that
Arrested Development is sadly off the air.

So many running gags and jokes, it was difficult to keep
track of them. Romantic comedies were supposed to be unfunny
by a rule!

I don't want to give out a spoiler here, so I'll just say:
What a great way to end a movie...

...

Also, I saw Sympathy for Lady Vengeance: 8½/10

Quite a fitting ending to Park Chan-Wook's "revenge
trilogy". Not the best of the three (Sympathy for Mr.
Vengeance is), but the film is saturated with so many
stunning shots, actors and ideas that to remain
psychologically intact after this emotional rollercoaster is
an achievement in itself!

Good stuff, though I'm aware that it actually wasn't that
fast. The camera was placed very low and it created an
illusion of speed. But it was a piece of pretty dangerous
driving nonetheless. And the whole idea, hehe, it should be
put to practice more often. Every director with a good car
should have a mandatory drive though his city.

Cuntychuck, just for information, "Partir, Revenir", another
Lelouch's movie has a similar sequence at the beginning. I
think it's faster, but he drives across rather rural
landscapes, so the danger is not so great. The amn sure
loves driving.
