Dark and unordinary films
Posted on April 15, 2011 at 7:30pm 26 Comments 0 Likes
I've watched a lot of films and I've noticed that there are sometimes film that you just can't put your finger on them, all you can say is that they are dark in atmosphere, unordinary, unhollywoodlike...
No particular order:
The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey 1988
Tenshi no Tamago (Angel's egg) 1985
La Cité des enfants perdus (City of lost children) 1995
Tideland 2005
Paperhouse 1988
The fall 2006
The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover…
Friday and Winning
Posted on April 10, 2011 at 7:32am 1 Comment 0 Likes
Don't you ever get that strange feeling that worlds have suddenly changed their meaning like Winning (because of Sheen) and Friday (because of R. Black).
I mean, this are common words, but when ever someone utters them I get this horrifying flashback of how you are minding your own business and the stupidity just forces it's way in, and then you become a part of this great carnival of stupidity we call popular culture. You just feel unclean like you are still a toddler with…

Anne said… Oh yes! I shall go look now... I have enjoyed what you have already posted and am working my way through that list.
(Wherever did that comment go? I am glad that it reached me via email since it disappeared from the comment section.)
Thank you for your kindness. I am glad you enjoyed the small selection I posted. I have some of them now on my playlist. Richard Moult just released a new cd. I had made a video clip of it (containing his artwork) some time ago.

- Thank you for the list... I will have to watch all of the clips you have kindly shared in due time. Why should I be disappointed with your list of books? Disappointment would indicate a presumption on my part and I presume nothing... I just enjoy life unfolding in all of its fantastical mysteriousness. Each person is a new world to discover.

I no longer have the extensive collection that I did at one time but I will surely think of some others.
What about you?

- At 9:38am on April 16, 2011, Anne said…
- Thank you most kindly. Yes... music! I will have to think about that and let you know. Art (including GOOD films) and music are such wonderful landscapes in which to wander the depths of our humanity. I look forward to discovering new vistas each day.

Mo Trauen said… - OH, MY, DOG! The Pope declared that monster to be a martyr! I didn't know that. Wow. I am stunned. I thought I was beyond surprise when it came to the monstrous actions of the religious, but you surprised me. Or, rather, the Pope did. The religious have no shame.

Well, this won't make you feel any better, but it might help put the actions of the idiotic leaders of the U.S. in perspective:

Like I said, every country has its shameful secrets and inhabitants. The good thing is that every country also has people who are very different from those shameful ones.
