It's not very graphic, don't worry about that side of things. It IS very emotionally raw and kind of spirals down into horrible tragedy though.

Ivan Reitman produced Shivers and Rabid, fact fans. Canada: small film community.

Why should we listen to you? YOU'RE HITLER!

'Crab paaaaaaste!!!!'

And Irons should have gotten TWO bloody Oscars for it.

My favourite Cronenberg, by a LONG chalk.
t's an absolutely DEVASTATING movie. I saw it when i was about 16 and I remember thinking it was the very first TRULY 'adult' movies i'd ever seen…not just the subject matter, but the tone and intelligence. It takes sex and sexuality incredibly seriously, and treats the…

He's good as the 'Hollywood agent' (ahem) in To Die For….

a Zed and Two Noughts. I love Greenaway, because I habitually saught his films out as a teenager on TV and VHS because you were guaranteed excplicit nudity in them. Turns out that got me interested in modern art, modernist/minimal music, the cinematography of Sacha Vierny (and subsequently the films of Resnais and…

My date's enthusiastic reaction to Chris Nolan's Memento was the first clue that she was a keeper. And 8 years later, she still is.

I just teared up at your description of that scene. Even harder to take is the previous 'cake and pop' scene, where they both revert to toddlerhood. It's interesting that Elliot, who's always been the pushier and more confident of the two becomes the weaker and more subservient when the drug psychosis really kicks in.

MotherFUCKER I will punk Jerry O'Connell's ass for sayin' such shit!

Seems to me like o'Connell's got one hand in his pocket and the other one on the dick.

Yo String where's 'acting' at?
Yo String, where's Acting? where's Acting, String? Where's ACTING? WHERE'S ACTING???

Damn you Jidges, i ain't seen it yet.

My stock answer to all those 'which is better' arguments is always that it's art. One of the main things I enjoy about art is that it IS unquantifiable. If I wanted to argue endlessly about stats, I'd be a sports fan.

Nothing of substance to add, really.
just wanted to say it was a great interview with what seems to be a genuinely stand-up guy. if i hadn't just tanked all 5 series' of The Wire recently (culminating on Saturday night) I'd have had to say that Mad Men is my favourite of the recent crop of Golden Age of American TV…

Oh. In that case I may as well fess up and tell you man to man that I've been fucking your wife AND your teenage daughter for quite a while. You'd better break it to them, they don't know about each other. I'm off for a 'sabbatical' in California.

It's his delivery, the gritted-teeth vitriol with which he growls it, and the way he's framed. It's just always been my favourite line from that movie. I also lke 'Match me Sidney' 'Not right this second, JJ.'

Really glad to see….
…How To Get Ahead In Advertising on here, one of the mosy authentically bitter, outraged, batshit-weird movies to emerge from the tail-end of Fatcha's Britain. I don't think it's quite the masterpiece that Withnail almost unwttingly is, but it's a fuck sight better than the complete disaster it's…

'I'd hate to take a bite outta you kid….yer a cookie full of arsenic'.
Best line of dialogue ever. Alexander Mackendrick was the Scottish Orson Welles and clifford Odets was the real Barton Fink.
