Kinda going movie nuts. Yesterday saw Uncle Buck with the wife & kids, then watched the Gene Hackman double bill The French Connection and Night Moves. NM is pretty good.
The Godard-effect; but not necessarily a bad thing, given the constantly-accelerating sensual mess named "American blockbuster."
This is excellent, a movie worth watching multiple times. Those are my favorite kinds. The director Martin McDonagh's Seven Psychopaths is great too. His most recent movie, Three Billboards has a fine cast but I'm not so sure about it. A friend, whose movie opinion I trust, didn't like it too much.In Bruges
It's interesting you should say that because Jarmusch took the title from a 1964 novel abt out of control teen agers running wild in England to be adapted into a movie staring Mick & Keith and be directed by Nick Ray of Rebel Without A Cause fame...and for further connections. Early on Jarmusch worked with/for Nick Ray. Jarmusch kinda befriended him at the end of his career.I think the title is kewl. The movie itself was okay but not astounding.
