Master and Everyone is one of the best albums of the past 10 years, I think. One of my top 10 favorite of all time. He owns being a prick in his music. "Why can't I be loved as what I am? A wolf among wolves and not as a man among men." is one of the lyrics. "Hard Life" is just a great great song. "I'm a hard man to…

Mulholland Drive is the story of a woman's obsessive, unrequited love for another woman, a love that ends in the tragic deaths of both. Camille is the star of a movie and Diane is an extra. Camille rejects Diane sexually as she is having an affair with the director. After they announce their engagement, Diane goes…

I guess I'm one of those that found the American Ring much scarier, but that might have been because I saw it first. However, I don't have high hopes for the American version of LTROI. I just finished the book and I think it's unlikely the director of Cloverfield will deal with all the graphic pedophilia. Really, the…

Bonnie and Clyde
My favorite S.G song is the one he did with Brigitte Bardot, "Bonnie and Clyde." That is all.

"I wish my peers would get out of my head — I'm trying to sleep!"

I love Elliott Smith and was as disturbed and horrified and saddened as anyone to hear about his bizarre suicide. But I still love listening to his music as much as ever. To me, it is amazing that someone in so much pain could use it to create something so beautiful. The only song that makes me incredibly sad,…

Yeah, he's kinda funny-looking but "Master and Everyone" is a fucking great album.

I totally agree that these remakes, and the newer horror movies in general, are somehow less scary for being so polished and pretty. There was something about the graininess and that weird 70's lighting that made everything so creepy. Plus, the actors were usually not the now-requisite fashion model types. They looked…

Oh Sweet Nothin' would definitely be on my top 50 list. Candy Says, Rock n' Roll, the live version of White Light/White Heat, and I'll Be Your Mirror are great to me as well.

Nice to have some fellow ELO lovers (or at least appreciators) here on AV. My uber-hipster brother got me the boxed set for X'mas in 2001, and I am eternally grateful. I discovered the Time album on my own. I've got a soft spot in my heart for concept albums about the future, robots, and whatnot… I am a woman, btw.

I agree it's a great song but I love the Dylan long version better. Not even a big Dylan fan but that song and the way he sings it is completely awesome.

Impossible
Impossible to pick just one, so three will have to do. "Blue in Green" by Miles Davis, "I'm a Man You Don't Meet Every Day" by The Pogues, and "Yours Truly, 2095" by ELO.

Oh, shit. "When the Wind Blows?" I saw that in high school and will never forget it. Anyone remember the movie "Testament?" Another 80's everyone-dies-slowly-and-painfully-from-nuclear-fallout-it-could-happen-any-minute film. Happy days.

I don't know about that, but he's interesting. I loved Breaking the Waves, Dogville and The Idiots, but Dancer in the Dark left me cold. Still I gotta love him as a fellow Dane. I think I read he's terrified of flying and has never been on a plane. Also, his surname is really just "Trier" but he added the "Von" to…

I saw it at the Angelika theater in Dallas on opening night. Fanboys galore, no walkouts and applause at the end. I didn't hate the film. Actually, I thought the beginning was very strong, Jackie Earl Hayley was amazing, and the story potentially compelling. However, it WAS far too long and I fell asleep about 2:15…

I actually really liked the music from Koyaanisqatsi they used during the Dr. Manhattan backstory.

Whoa, I remember seeing some of Brimstone and Treacle with Sting when I was about 13 years old and it kind of freaked me out. Was it possibly on Night Flight? Became a HUGE fan of Potter after seeing The Singing Detective as a freshman in college. It's probably the best place to start, although the original Pennies…
