YouTube - Sansho the Bailiff (1953) - Part 1/12

^watch that too, it's nice and depressing. And the 90's version of Lolita is on youtube (unhidden) aswell, if anyone's curious

speaking of depressing, have you seen Dancer in the Dark? it's possibly the greatest musical ever made, starring bjork.

Molecules 01-18-2009 01:16 PM

yes, that's in it's own league of depressing. I felt so sorry for her when she kept working in the factory even though she was going blind. Lovely Bjork =(

It's one of those films where things go from bad to worse and you watch out of morbid fascination. Lars Von Trier and Mike Leigh (with the exception of his latest) films are always sure bets for a downer. edit: i should add their films are more often than not depressingly profound rather than just an exercise in misery... did Bjork have a hand in the glitchy minimal music for that movie?

The last movie I saw was Choke.
It's based on Chuck Palahniuk's book with the same title. It's about a guy named Victor, who's a sex addict.
Perfect movie for people with dark humor ;)

I rented this expecting something totally different...as in something with a lot more blood and guts. But...I wasn't completely disappointed as the movie turned out to be pretty good. It doesn't 'blow the horror genre to bits' as the above picture claims...but it was suspenseful and I enjoyed the ending.

I was so dissappointed in this movie. I expected something on the level of "Hero"...what I got was a love story that wasn't even that touching (IMO) and same-ole-same-ole marital arts moves. It kept my attn until the end...but just barely.

All over the cover of this movie is plastered the word "comedy". Comedy,comedy,comedy. Seriously? I mean, yeah, it definitely had it's comedic moments. But I actually felt depressed after watching it. It was a decent movie, but I wouldn't recommend it to someone who wanted a laugh necessarily.

Predictable and boring. Barely finished it. 5/10

^^ I've not seen Changeling yet (by all accounts it's brilliant) but I think Clint's overrated these days, the last truly satisfying film I saw by him was Unforgiven... ''the Duck of Death'' :laughing:
