The Beat That My Heart Skipped

Good story, beautiful camera work.

last night i rented firefox, directed by and starring clint eastwood.

i remembered it as being better, tho i knew i was in for some cheese. the intro scene where he has a seizure, due to his post traumatic stress, is classic cheese.

I heartily recommend Russ Meyer's Supervixens! to anyone here that likes a movie that includes the following:
Naked, buxom women.
The occasional hotrod (more often than not there are a lot of old trucks).
Naked, buxom women.
The promise of an explosion or two (I forget how many times something was supposed to blow up).
Naked, buxom women.
An old German guy (being old... and German).
Naked, buxom women.

A simple plot, like a good deal of Russ Meyer flicks, and, in my opinion, is second only to Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! in Meyer's "body" of work. Do not confuse this movie with Vixen (which sucked) or Beneath the Valley of the Ultravixens! (which looks like it sucks, I'm holding off on that one).
I'll put it like this: Before you watch this movie, flip a coin; heads = pint of ice cream, tails = pint of beer. Which ever way the coin lands, you can't miss.
Something tells me Marsupialized would dig this flick.

I had the day off, today, and I watched Videodrome. I'm not in the mood for anything in particular, just something that goes good with frozen pizza.

Since you said "Videodrome"...

La Jetee
Un Chien Andalou
Eraserhead

(note: definitely see these if you are a Pixies, Elliot Smith, or Tortoise fan)

Maborosi was so good I'm going to watch it again tomorrow, sober.

weekend at bernies II
