First time I saw him was in Fresh. Gus reminds me a lot of his character in that movie. Quite and manipulative and very dangerous despite their cool and calm  demeanor

First person who brings up "Flower" as proof of this concept gets a kick in a nuts.

One of my favorites was where he took The Mummy Returns to task for a scene where the main characters out ran a sunrise.

The Utah Mountain Meadow Massacres

I never went into the narrows. I spent most of my time near the entrance of Labia Gorge

Kurt Vonnegut's short story "A Long Walk to Forever" is one of my favorite falling-in-love stories. I read it when I was eighteen and for better or worse it influenced my perception on the difference between real love and simple infatuation.

Out of all of those I would say Chungking Express is my favorite Wong Kar Wai love story, but I'm torn on which is the better subplot within the movie.  I lean more toward the first story with Kaneshiro and Lin - just because Kaneshiro is such a funny sad sack at the beginning.

I love films like Umberto D. The endings to these films always get me. Some of the others I really like include,

I haven't seen that one yet. And I suppose your reaction is one of the reasons I'm not in any hurry to watch it.

He's right.. Too many apes - not enough nakedness

How about Dog fight with River Phoenix and Lili Tylor?

I thought it was funny that almost all of these examples featured a good looking women with a plain looking man. I've been racking my brain trying to think of an example that follows the opposite dynamic but I'm having a hard time.

What do you think is the worst use of scatological humor in a film?

Another example
There's a great little documentary called "Operation Filmmaker" released back in 2008 that touches on a lot of the points made in this article.

There's no doubt that GWTW is racist but to brand Mitchell as racist is a bit extreme. She was a product of her time. Whose to say that she wouldn't have changed her mind if she lived to see the violence done to those who fought for civil rights in the South during the 50s & 60s.
