I've seen and enjoyed eight out of these ten, still have to watch The Long Day Closes and especially Two Days, One Night, since it's a film from Belgium, where I live - no idea how I was able to miss that one.

I also saw the 'female in the band has a thing going on with the other guys' thing coming from a mile away - it's such a chauvinistic cliché, it's not funny anymore. You know, I GET THE JOKE. It simply doesn't work.
As a big fan of both Talking Heads and Documentary Now!, I have to say this episode was like lukewarm nothingness to me.
Same problem, less surprisingly, in Belgium. Here's another link: https://www.youtube.com/wat…
Yeah, they're also quite unjustly forgotten, 'SF Sorrow' is a marvelous album. I saw them live a year ago in a small Brussels jazz club, and they played a great show that went on for hours. I also got to talk to the blokes before the show, and they were incredible charming too.
Nah, 'Nightmares'. Awful horror anthology, but a pretty good sequence in its own right.
These days, everybody's single. Apparently.
Goddamn that bassline. Here in Europe it's forever linked to the BBC commercials for Formula 1 races. https://www.youtube.com/wat…
I agree with most of these, but the first song that spontaneously came to mind here was Echo and the Bunnymen's 'The Killing Moon' from Donnie Darko. It really kickstarted the movie for me, and is forever linked to it.
The way she completely became that character just goes to show how brilliant she really is, indeed.
Margot Robbie simply IS a brilliant actress. Only yesterday, as it happens, I rewatched 'The Wolf of Wall Street', and slap me in the face and call me Susan if she wasn't fucking tremendous in that role.
Yeah. right there with ya. She's also downright beautiful in Holy Motors, especially during this song written by Neil Hannon of The Divine Comedy: https://www.youtube.com/wat…
Why, yes it is. They all are, eventually.
I think Pete knew perfectly well that Romeo died first, but was just trying to stay polite and not correct the guy. Come on, it's pretty much the Classic of classics.
Great episode, but I did notice Dominic Cooper slipping back into 'British Mode' when talking to the angels in the motel room. He's a great actor, mind you - just sayin'.
Actually, that's how we're described on the intergalactic map for alien explorers. "Earth: the planet with half a brain."
Yeah, they're quite similar in their poor incrementation of CG visuals in their movies, like I also said in a comment above before reading yours.
I'm not sure. I think 'The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus' is actually quite similar to Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland': both are crammed with ugly, fake-looking, headache-inducing CGI, and both had a pretty crummy storyline. Well, at least in Gilliam's case, the latter wasn't really his fault (RIP Heath).
It's not a Can song, it's a Can album. And it's spelled 'Neu!', for Christ's sake.
Okay, that is an interpretation - one with poor grammar, punctuation, and reasoning. I wish you well with that particular point of view.
