Yes. I remember when Blue Velvet was in the theaters and one of my parent's friends watched it and he told me that it was terrible and all the acting was really bad. He told me the audience was laughing at it because the acting was so bad.
I suspect the audience was laughing at the funny parts but he might've been

I thought that was when he was being influenced by Bob.

I feel sorry for those two poor farmers. Jerry too. I think Jerry might be the new body for the Arm to attach to? The voice and subtitles, or was he just way too stoned?Everyone will soon head to Twin Peaks. The Arm might want to be there to help. I don't think marijuana does what he's going through. Poor little

I liked Noah too. Fountain was good. I have to see it again. Addiction can lend itself to extreme cinema because it can be an extreme behaviour. When he had his arm decapitated? that scene was so disturbing. Those scenes with him walking down the street with the T.V. while that excellent music from Kronos quartet

That's a reduction of the art of film that you don't really believe. It all depends on whether film is an art or just an entertaining way to spend time. I'm white and find Sophia Coppola's view of life alienating too.The typical Hollywood movie is made by rich white people like her but they are so devoid of the

I think Sophia Coppola always disappoints story-wise but excels at the mood and the photography.

Write what you know is good advice for every writer. Where e do you find it doesn't apply? Even a super-hero movie should be written by a writer that is injecting an understanding of real life. Sophia Coppola is a film-maker with limitations, like all film-makers. Other film-makers might get someone to help them out

Why despise Requiem?

So with your logic, an inuit person that lives in the NorthWest Territories is artistically failing if they only write Inuit people into their stories? There is a piece of artistic wisdom: "write about what you know."

I'm not really dealing with the racial politics with my answer. A director of a na adaptation has to gut most of a novel out. I just philosophically believe and artist can choose to adapt a work the way they want. If she had racist intentions in leaving the characters out, that's not very good. I'm not saying that. I

I don't think I assumed that you we're saying she is a racist from your original comment. You are assuming about my comment. I'm not defending the movie in particular all that much really. I'm just defending the right of an artist to pick the thematic structure and characters they see to be important to the story and

I think Sophia Coppola might just be making art about what she knows. Is it a good thing for her to put racial diversity into her movies if her real life is populated by super rich white elites? That's her life. Wouldn't it be false of her to just add people of colour? Her films can be considered auteur pieces. I grew

It is Lynch.

Music and sound design is so important to the show. I liked the song being there but I can understand how people think it is a diversion.

Funny. My problem with modern movie making is that the film-makers cut way too quickly. We rarely are given the luxury to see any long scenes.

I like it even more when people start writing their own story with their predictions. The show causes a particularly creative brand of speculation.

I was actually thinking that it would be a great thing to fall asleep watching.

The first episode starts with Cooper at 'the White Lodge,' talking to there Giant. The Giant tells him he is far away and Cooper disappears.

I like to go to art galleries. I can look at a painting for a long time. My understanding of cinema isn't stuck to the three act structure used for most movies. I love novelty and getting outside of the way I usually think. Is that why I greatly enjoy this episode?

The bomb is like electricity in that it empowers and enables them somehow.
