RT @mattsinger: Long line for BEFORE MIDNIGHT tickets and an even longer one inside for seats.
RT @GlennThrush: Why does everybody on Ira Glass sound exactly like Ira Glass. Cacophony of voices converging on a single point of smug.
RT @AwardsDaily: So there were many female directors in Un Certain Regard but did any of those movies win anything? Just wondering.
DP: @BumbleWard But I am not a great fan of the cinema of negative drama… plenty of critics feel otherwise
DP: The 6 hr version - w/ a story - might’ve been great RT @BumbleWard: @DavidPoland that makes me sad Dave! The confession scene blew me away.
“The true punk film of the festival.”
~ Romain Blondeau On Claire Denis’ Les Saluds in Les Inrocks
“It’s also defined commercially by the difference between a colorful, Hawaii-set comedy starring George Clooney and a black-and-white, prairie-based old-age odyssey featuring a straggly and unkempt Bruce Dern. All the same, Paramount Vantage should be able to ride accolades for this very fine Cannes competition entry to respectable specialized returns in fall release.”
~ McCarthy On Nebraska

Just as an instant first impression with nothing but the 37 seconds of footage above to discern an entire television show from, the needle on my chemistry detector is firmly in “too nice” territory. Aren’t we nice, aren’t we clean, aren’t we cozy and middle class? Aren’t we NOT going to lower ourselves to the level of actually fighting over a movie and fighting FOR a movie? I want critics who actually care too much about movies and don’t care if you can tell they do. I don’t want a critic who realizes that these are “just movies” and nothing worth getting all worked up over. God…fuck those reviewers. They can go hang out at Starbucks and gently chide people with blood in their hearts who get really excited and passionate about a great actor or a fantastic script.
Then again, 37 seconds is 37 seconds and I don’t have a clue what these two do with the rest of the show.
