yup, J&J does indeed have narration… I actually think Children of Men is Cuaron's Godard film; the quick cuts and off-center camera focus — there is a scene in which Clive Owen is walking down the street, his is in the center of the shot, and an explosion happens right at the edge of the screen, that screamed Godard

Watching it, I realized: holy shit, this is Cuaron's homage to Truffaut's great New Wave classic, Jules and Jim. So I can never untangle the movie from my perspective of, is he….??

I'm kind of weirdly in love with Catherine Breillat's Fat Girl recently; weirdly because the first time I saw it, I was mildly traumatized. The ending made me shriek with.. well, it just made me shriek, ok. It was shocking and I thought the twist ending didn't quite work and it made me feel weirdly betrayed.

Thank god I don't love Anna Kendrick.

ah, but only if one of your first actions after traveling back in time was cockblocking your creeper of a dad.

no lie. His last monologue in Angels made me tear up and I am pretty hardcore when it comes to movies and crying.

@avclub-ffc905126015cdc6758873970fb59828:disqus think of it this way, Ralph Bellamy's character is saved from a lifetime of being led by the nose/manipulated and browbeaten by Rosalind Russell, while she gets to be married to Cary Grant, who is as manipulative, wily and competitive as her.

yeah, I always forget about the lady who freaks out and commits suicide; that was the one weird note in the movie, wasn't it?

A ton of kiddie pics qualify now, which is actually kind of depressing. The Social Network mention obvs led to pre-Bonnie & Clyde movies, back when the Hays Code was enforced (and movies oddly better).

Seriously, get on with TS3. I was talking to a friend about the shittiness of TDKR (yeah, I said it) and I was saying it's not surprising because there have been like no movie trilogies in which all three movies are great. Even LotR had an uneven run (2 > 1 > 3). Then like three days later, a lightbulb went off: Toy

HA! Maybe as an alternative, you could watch Cuaron's homage to the movie, Y Tu Mama Tambien… oh wait, the threesome was explicit and you see boobies.
