Let's do it!<BR/><BR/>Well you write very incisively and evocatively about "Querelle" and being an English Postgrad has obviously helped your critical faculties...as with me too! Okay some might call us pretentious, but, like, whateeeeeever!!<BR/><BR/>See ya<BR/>OC xxxOld Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13386055.post-74400457508995130092007-05-12T12:35:00.000+02:002007-05-12T12:35:00.000+02:00Hi Simon - yes, you must see them all :-) I actual...Hi Simon - yes, you must see them all :-) <BR/><BR/>I actually haven't seen at least half of the films on your list either so that's some home work for both of us...<BR/><BR/>"Querelle", "Big Lebowski" and "Hustler White" I've got on DVD so you can borrow or we can arrange a viewing evening like the old days ;-)<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure I could be a film critic but I do like seeing movies, just tend to miss a lot of stuff. <BR/><BR/>thanks for checking out my list! see you!thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03359229225093878440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13386055.post-27165809196316940552007-05-10T01:47:00.000+02:002007-05-10T01:47:00.000+02:00Hey Thomas!Thanks for taking up my challenge and p...Hey Thomas!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for taking up my challenge and posting up your list! A really interesting and unusual group of movies, with a definite...artsy angle, wouldn't you say?<BR/><BR/>"Querelle" sounds intriguing and I would love to see it some time. Jean Genet was quite a dirty guy anyway, with his adoration of all those virile working class men, so I can imagine the film doing justice to his vision...it sounds like it from your description anyway. Incidentally you write about the film very evocatively, excellent description and comments! (Ever thought of becoming a film critic? Or it must be the "Sexual Dissidence" lit crit days kicking in...!!)<BR/><BR/>"The Big L" - started watching that one but never saw all of it, might have to revisit it some time! I know it's got a real cult status.<BR/><BR/>"Blow Up" - pretty creepy from what I remember, and the whole thing about the subjectiveness of the camera is kind of fascinating...<BR/><BR/>"Rosemary's Baby" - on my list too, a brilliant movie! Oh my Goodness Thomas, does this mean you are devil spawn??!<BR/><BR/>"Polyster" - aaah yes, I watched it with you once I think! Francine Fishpaw is a fabulous name for a character. I love John Waters too, although his recent movies haven't been so great...the last truly good one for me was "Serial Mom".<BR/><BR/>"Spirited Away" - never seen it!<BR/><BR/>"Lost Highway" - I saw that one at the Duke of Yorks in Brighton! And was thoroughly confused. But then you've said that's how people react to his stuff. Personally "Blue Velvet" is one of my faves. And I loved "Twin Peaks"...<BR/><BR/>"The Garden" - aaah Mr Jarman! Again another one I haven't seen.<BR/><BR/>"Prospero's Books" - not really acquainted with Peter Greenaway's stuff. Does he still make films?<BR/><BR/>"Hustler White" - Mmmm, sounds...steamy!<BR/><BR/>Well done - great stuff!!Old Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.com
