The film ends with her sacrificing him to Nyarlathotep.

I'm still amused by that rumour from a few years back that Skip Woods didn't actually exist, but was the writer version of Alan Smithee.

Not at all. I can send you a copy if you want.

I found a copy of the script for this a while back (it was on the Blacklist), and this is how the sex scene between Thomas and Johanna is written:

Is anyone else suspicious that the latest prestige drama from the director of The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty isn't coming out in Oscar season?

I thought that took place in Morocco.

I'm not a fan of Greengrass' action style because it seems to me inherently dishonest. It's meant to mimic the aesthetics of documentary filmmaking, which Greengrass started in, but if you made a documentary look like that it would be considered utter shit. No documentary cameraman is that bad at following action, and…

A film about American soldiers, directed by the writer of American Sniper, and named after a phrase invented to let people praise the military without ever having to actually engage them in conversation and think of them as human beings. This sounds bloody terrible.

They released it on DVD. I think it's on Amazon.

It's like everyone in his films suddenly jolts into 'fight mode' whenever the action starts and then lurch around in a very choreographed manner.

The Bourne Identity is basically a remake of Three Days of the Condor. An impossibly skilled CIA employee suddenly finds himself pursued by people in his own organisation out to kill him for reasons he doesn't know, meets/kidnaps a woman he quickly falls in love with, and it ends with other forces in the CIA having…

I'm pretty sure Hero was produced by the Chinese government, so it being a nationalist fairytale is not surprising. I really love that movie. I saw it in the cinema as a nine-year-old and when you spend your days watching stories with simple, happy endings something as unusual as Hero's conclusion really sticks with…
