Lone Audience, I think the problem is the BS reasons people are knocking them with, such as being "white sissies." And it becomes even more ridiculous when the person knocking them as white sissies is probably a white sissy.

Good move!
Now I'm sure people will go buy the DVD instead of just torrenting it!

The "SEE ALL" link provides you with the in-order list. The five on the front page are just randomly taken from that list.

My hipster ass lives in Williamsburg and my "neighborhood" favorites right now include Contempt, A Woman Under the Influence, L'Eclisse, Day for Night, Scenes From A Marriage, El Topo, Pierrot Le Fou, Killer of Sheep, Solarias….

Do not EVER EVER EVER question Busby Berkeley. EVERRRRRRRRR

Holy shit, do we really have multiple assholes calling Metropolis a bad movie? Evil Maria owns your asses.

HANNAH SCHYGULLA in "The Edge of Heaven"

tell me about it. i've been waiting for this film to come seemingly forever.

Well, I personally think Snow Angels is an amazing movie. Anything done by Green should be moved right to the top of your queueueueue.

500 Days
My guess is you won't be cringing at 500 Days of Summer once you actually see. Do not doubt Joseph Gordon-Levitt my good man.

It's all about "Apartment Story"

I guess I'll join in. My favorite song is

Rififi is not New Wave

With Fassbinder start with The Marriage of Maria Braun, Lola, and Veronika Voss. Then Ali: Fear Eats the Soul.

I can't get behind Woman in the Window because I find the ending to be crap, which I have to believe was tacked on at the insistence of the studio.
