See, the thing is, in Scotland, funding is paid for Scottish students and European students I think. The problem is, I'm not sure about post-graduate study! I'm not at all sure of scholarships. The University is the second best in the city and they were quite demanding for law, but for PhD students I'm sure they'd be open (again, not sure about scholarships though!)

Ahhh, I dunno, I was more forgiving in that regard! On Quantum of Solace, I completely agree that it's massively flawed, but I kind of fell for Bond in it, haha. I mean there was something animalistic about him, it was a really magnetic performance for me, especially following the brilliant Casino Royale. I kind of see Quantum of Solace as an epilogue to Casino Royale, rather than a fully-fledged sequel. But yeah, I love Bond, haha.

A PhD in the UK in something so simple as nanoscience, hmm... Nope! Haha. I couldn't think of anywhere, at least in Glasgow for that sort of area. Besides, Britain is so expensive to study in, and cold(!), why Britain?

Haha, hey man! Oh, the relationship didn't work out, but no regrets, was fun while it lasted! I loved Skyfall, which I noticed you enjoyed. But like, I've been so excited for this movie, right, and I did love it, but I was oh so disappointed that it entirely dropped the Quantum thing they built up over the last two movies. But man, Craig is brilliant.

And yes!! Just let me get this degree business out of the way first :p

Fuck! It cut like literally half my message off! I was saying that the website is a good idea, but that I worry a little about SEO and getting hits, etc since we lack technical prowess. Also that I think we would probably need at least one writer! I think there was something else! Oh, yeah, Love Exposure. By Sion Sono. Might have mentioned him before, but you should give Love Exposure a watch when you have time! Be interested in your opinion!

Hey you! Thanks for nominating! I swear, so tired of writing arduously crafted reviews only for them to literally just disappear, even when there are only like 10 other reviews altogether!

Yeah, my relationship. Just one of those things you know? I don't really like to get involved just because I like to spend a pathological amount of time alone, haha, not in an emo way or anything! I just like my own time, you know?! So I get cramp easily when I'm in a relationship. But we just met 'n all so it's still infatuation, you know?

I gave Bel Ami another watch, and you know, you're right. It was not like I remember, and Pattinson is so awkward to watch. It's not the fact he plays the character like some bumbling idiot- I actually sort of appreciated that about the movie, this guy who purely by virtue of his looks gets whatever he want, thought it made him even more unlikable but still believable- it's just his facial expressions. He's always trying to do something with his face, maybe to show he can actually move his face for those who wondered after seeing him in Twilight. Either way, you're right, didn't like it!

The Dark Knight Rises! Man, was I disappointed! Felt Nolan had been given a mandate to make a 'film' after 'The Dark Knight', but that instead he produced nothing more than a 'film'.

Yeah, the website's proving difficult, and I won't be able to convince this guy. Computer people! They're pretty boring! Either way, even if it takes time, it's fine, if not in fact a good thing, because it means we'll build a repertoire of strong analytical reviews.

Now you! How ya been?!

I saw Stewart in a pre-Twilight movie called The Messengers. She was horrible. Seriously.

Pattinson was dismissed in Bel Ami by critics, but I felt he brought a certain fecklessness to the role that was required, many actors would have made the character a little too 'Sebastien Valmont' and he didn't which was good. I'll reserve my judgement on Pattinson until his next serious film, but I'm optimistic about him.

I am on vacation finally!! I start back in August, so I'm just trying to consume as much art as possible. Subsequently, I've quite my 20 cigarette a day, bottle of vodka a week habit, lol. I don't smoke or drink anymore, and I run too. Like, I'm going through this health phase right now. Probably not for long, but I feel great! How have you been?

chrissm1
Chriss M 11 months ago

Hahaha, yes! But my grades paid off, so it was worth it in the end!

Good point about the Lynchian feel, you're absolutely right. The sort of disconnected style of acting reminded me very much of Mulholland Drive. I don't know why, but Cosmopolis really hit me. It's also like the second movie with Pattinson that I've thought he's really excelled in. The other being Bel Ami. I think he has real presence on screen. His girlfriend, Kirsten Stewart, not so much. She's like a massive block of wood!

chrissm1

IT'S ME!!! Haha, sorry! I'm back! I've had my final exams and it's all been pretty killer lately, sorry for disappearing like that! But I'm back!! Saw Cosmopolis two days again, and man, it blew me away. Read your review, saw you didn't quite like it as much as me, but I was struck by it. Although, needs to be said, how funny was it when Pattinson was getting a prostate exam in the limo as he spoke with the woman? Haha.

chrissm1
Chriss M 12 months ago

I agree with you on the tangential conversations, and the dead space is indeed hard to fill, as it were. But yes, I believe this is achieved in Plan B. I think the problem with Weekend is that I simply did not like the characters so any tangential conversations they were having did not enamour me.

Ah, but you see, I do think it is absurd to see a straight guy falling for another guy! However, it could be argued that he merely hadn't realised, or had denied, his sexuality, but this isn't what I meant by absurd. What I was actually referring to was this whole 'I'm going to seduce my ex-girlfriend's boyfriend to prove he's gay so I can win her back' thing. These types of things are buyable in films like Dangerous Liaisons or Cruel Intentions, etc, but not in a film which is striving to be so naturalistic; added to this is the fact that the film is, in my opinion, a little ham-fisted in advancing this, well, narrative device. The conversations the hairier fellow has with his friend I found to be a little obvious in their intention and that grated on me.

The cinematography! Well! The thing is, I didn't feel a sort of gritty realism in it, as in say, 'A Beautiful Thing', I found it to be more akin to a drunken 20 year's old digital camera footage from a crazy week in Malaga.

Haha, I sound like I hated it! But I really didn't! I actually really liked it. The characters, acting, and, somewhat, the script, really were quite brilliant!

chrissm1
Chriss M 12 months ago

I'm 21! And, haha, you're right, you've never asked me. Btw, your English is pretty amazing. Also, when I get home, I'll respond to your previous message more fully. Can't be bothered typing out long responses on the iPad- it's a little annoying,you know? I watched Raging Sky, Raging Sun, by the way. And I really think you should see it. It is hardcore Arthouse, with a director almost as good as Bergman with his use of black and white. And, also, I think you'll like it even more than me! Watch it and you'll see why, haha. Send you another message when I get home.

chrissm1
Chriss M 13 months ago

So I watched Plan B! My opinion is ambivalent! Although there is no doubt that I don't like it as much as you, I'm somewhat torn. I think the film had two very strong good points and three bad points.

The acting, and direction of the actors, was spectacular. Like, the characters were incredibly believable, you don't doubt them for a second. There is a real depth to them. And secondly, I thought the script was good in characterisation. What surprised me was how much I felt myself thinking of Weekend when I was watching this. I think this is much better, however. Like, those tangential conversations that I felt were pointless in Weekend I think added to this film's naturalistic approach.

Three things I didn't like: the premise I found to be quite unbelievable, if not a little absurd. Secondly, the ending felt by-the-books, almost a little banal. And finally, the cinematography! At some points I felt like I was watching some cable news broadcast. It was really quite bad. Although, ignoring the awful camera used, there was some nice, lingering shots in there.

All in all, however, I was really glad I watched it. The characters and performances really made the movie stand out, and I think it was a good bit better than Weekend, all in all.

My other friend recommended a film for me. I had asked for a hardcore art house recommendation, and it just so happens he recommended another gay film! It's called Raging Sun, Raging Sky. You heard of it? Apparently it's like literally watching wallpaper for three hours. Can't wait!

Chriss M 13 months ago

Chriss M 13 months ago

By the way, sorry for any typos or formatting issues! I'm typing on an iPad, haha.

chrissm1
Chriss M 13 months ago

Ah, you see, I very much liked Xavier Dolan's Heartbeats, as it's called here. It was mostly style over substance, but it was very watchable. Also his other film, I killed my Mother, was good, but less good. Both of his films have lead characters who are gay without the movie being overtly concerned with the state of being gay, you know? I prefer films in which gay characters can be without the focus of the film being his or her gayness. on the matter of the film sort of referring to itself, I did actually like that commentary, but just, again, not what I was wanting from this film. Another film, Glue. Has an arguably gay lead which is bout more than just being gay. Unfortunately I know nothing about website design, or know anyone with that skill set! I think we need, like you were saying, someone good at that, but it would be helpful if we had someone with skills in journalism for an editorial role.

chrissm1
Chriss M 13 months ago

Haha, thanks regarding Salo!

Now, regarding Weekend, I absolutely take your point on the characterisation, however, I would say that in the film's attempt to be naturalistic it often meanders into tangential conversation which really didn't add much for me. There is the fact that I didn't like either of the main characters, if I'm honest! That didn't help.

Secondly, and worst, was thefilm's political points. I mean we're all liberal he so of course we're politically for gay rights, etc, so it's not that I oppose this inclusion- just that I oppose the inclusion in this film. A film that was supposed to be a movie about relationships, it just so happened this one was about a gay couple. Well, I think when you start including questions of how gay people should act and how society reacts to how gay people act it begins to narrow the scope of the film. A focus is created.

Don't get me wrong, these questions are imortant, but again, just not in this movie! It was very frustrating, I found it distracting. I also found the conclusions the artistic character reached to be obnoxious. He wanted the freedom to discuss his sex life in public, which is fine, but he demanded that passers-by be happy to hear about his sex life. That was the problem. People- anybody- that sits around shouting about their sex life is obnoxious, you know?

As for a website, the other advantage we would have is the fact that we have a pretty expansive back catalogue of reviews already written (mine's being of varying quality!). On the other hand, I've written for a website before, and it is very hard to get any kind of real circulation.

chrissm1
Chriss M 13 months ago

By the way! Did you get to vote in the French election?

chrissm1
Chriss M 13 months ago

Hahaha, I may end up having to hold you to that offer of creating a website for film reviews, by the way! Not certain university will work out as it should yet!

Wow, you read my Salo review? Haha, thanks. Very long and rambling! But yeah, one of my favourite films of all time, so important! Pasolini is pretty brilliant, Theorem was great too.

Weekend, ah, well, you see... When I first watched it, from all the reviews I had seen on TV, I was expecting like sort of a transgressive film. Like, a gay movie that was only gay in the sense that the characters were gay, but I don't think that's what it is, actually! I felt it was very much a 'gay' film, if that makes sense. I wanted a film that just happened to have two gay characters in it, and from there, explored their relationship. But in the film, underneath that, is a sort of thematic questioning of how a gay person should be, if that makes sense. Haha. It wasn't what I had been expecting, unfortunately! I think I prefer Xavier Dolan's films and Alexis Dos Santos's as gay movies. The fact that their characters aren't straight is just incidental.

Knowing you, you might try to lure me into phone sex! And if I do give it to you, like I said, I doubt we'll ever really talk! Do you have Skype? Maybe that would be more convenient.

Hi Carlos i was really impressed by Tom Ford's film "A Single Man", it was really poetic, with amazing performances. A genuinely pleasant surprise.

I saw Milk of Sorrw before the oscars, really liked it, not as good as White Ribbon, A Prophet, or Secret in their eyes, but better than AjamiI have been wanting to see whatever works, glad you liked it, I've heard some mixed things, but I am a fan of curb your enthusiasm. Last I talked to you I saw Harry Brown and City Island, both great, Harry Brown a 8/10, City Island a 9/10 Since then I saw the Douglas Fairbanks Robin Hood, Date Night, and "The Complete Metropolis" which was AMAZING! I saw it in theaters, the orignal version was found in an Argentinian film museum, with 25 minutes of lost footage. I also saw Up, and Requiem for a Dream again.

Thank you for understanding my point Carlos, and i see your point as well. It just what you said about Moore is very true, you love him or hate him, in my case it's pure hate. Have great weekend Carlos.

Dannyrovira
Danny Rovira 2 years ago

My dear friend there is nothing to be sorry about, I am not upset with you, and you did not know until now that I cannot stand that fat clown! The reason I call him anti-American is because of the way he slams my country, you say he hates capitalism, yet when he made 100 million dollars with 911 film attack on the Bush administration, I did not see him give any of that loot to the poor of America! Carlos my friend you know why he won't leave America, it not because he loves America, it's because it's his meal ticket, and it's because he got rich bad mouthing America. Don't you see that every film that he makes is an attack, a put down of America, alway negative and never positive. That is why he is anti-American, and that is why I hate his fat ass! Take care buddy.

Dannyrovira
Danny Rovira 2 years ago

Thanks Carlos, but no thanks! If there is anything in this world that I cannot stand, it's that fat anti-American moron Michael Moore! I know there is a lot of things wrong with my country, but I don't need this bloated idiot to tell me, while he lines his pockets with money from the poor suckers who go see his bullshit documentary! Take care Carlos, and please don't ever send me anything dealing with fat bastard! Thanks buddy.

haha eu adorei Freaks, apesar de o som ser um pouco mau. mas é compreensível para um filme dos anos 30. gostei bastante porque desafiou bastantes convenções não só do cinema, mas também da forma como se via o mundo, e mais ainda, as ditas "aberrações", aderindo à realidade de que estes também são gente. o final é o complemento visual do que é dito no início, de que qualquer pessoa poderia nascer,ou tornar-se, numa "aberração".

ah é? vens estudar para aqui ou algo assim? eu sou de Coimbra, ainda algo longe de Lisboa.

Glad you're a fan! To be honest, I'd rather he just re-release Titanic in 2D. I think this whole 3D thing is an overblown novelty, and it's already getting tiresome.

Ultimamente não tenho tido muita paciência para ficar a escrever. venho aqui ao site, faço o rating, e fecho a janela. 'Alice...' é do Scorsese sim. é muito bom, apesar de não ser o meu favorito. Para mim, Taxi Driver é a verdadeira obra-prima de Scorsese. Apesar de tambem gostar bastante de Goodfellas. e The Wackness não é nada de novo, mas eu gostei. bastante até. :P

jmankas

tudo bem? sim tenho visto bastantes filmes, apenas não tenho dito muita coisa sobre eles aqui. Wackness, Barbarella, Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, são alguns dos que vi recentemente. ;)

michaelcorleone
Mike T. 3 years ago

Absolutely. The problems with the writing really separated me from the material, and I was unable to have any sort of personal attachment. This is coming from someone who loves Titanic. It's actually one of my favorite films. What did you think of it?

Putz, eu não vi nenhum outro dele! Eu aluguei faz um tempinho Clube da Lua, tava adorando, mas com uns 40 minutos de filme começou a travar, tava todo riscado, até hoje não terminei... Já que recomendou todos vou baixa-los mesmo...
Não tinha ouvido falar nesse novo dele, vou procurar. Só só assisti o Filho da Noiva, mas já sou fã do trabalho do cara.

Danny Rovira 3 years ago

Hello Carlos my name is Danny from Brooklyn, New York City nice to meet you. I would very much like to be added to your friends list, I am try to build a circle of friends who are serious about the cinema. Hope to hear from you soon, thanks!

rebvodka042099

Sorry I didn't get back to you earlier - I exchange messages with lots of people and it gets chaotic at times - I don't remember to whom I've replied and whom I haven't! So excuse my lateness!

Haha, yes, you have a Southern smile. It has that sweet crooked quality about it.

So which side of Brazil is actual when it comes to the ones that soap operas show? The heavenly paradise one, or the violence and villains one? Which one do you see?

There are a few things to see in Greece. There's the White Tower. The bay area around it is just splendid. There are many more things to do in Athens though. We have a great market as well. And definitely a lot of ruins and history. And the seas if you come during the summer. And the sun, no matter when you come! It's 65 degrees here now (in Fahrenheit - that would be 18 in Celsius - I don't know which one you use there!)

France? Would that be Paris or another city? I've been in Paris twice. I never really liked it - and always wondered why others do. It's one of my least favorite cities, but maybe if you visit it as a student rather than a tourist it will be different.

I'd like to go study and live in London as soon as I finish school (which will be the third college I'll be finishing!) I've studied photography for 2 years, and I have a degree in Speech Communication/Theater from North Central College in the States. But...I only want to be a writer. I work as a film critic in a Greek newspaper but get paid like...nothing!

Wait. Physics??? Does that mean you're brilliant and have 150 IQ??
