Hewlett posted:Yeah, I went ahead and grabbed Harakiri and Sword of Doom (since I actually have all the others), and I'm super jazzed. Especially since I watched the first segment of Kwaidan last night and now I'm super into Kobayashi. What a stellar, silent filmmaker. You're in for a treat dude, harakiri is the 2nd best Japanese movie ever, probably.

Magic Hate Ball posted:Eagerly anticipating picking up Dekalog. Anyone else have it yet? Kieslowski is amazing. yeah, it's real good. I didn't think Keislowski could do any better than the Three Colors Trilogy, but, guess what, he did.

Nate RFB posted:Since you can pick preorders for B&N, I picked up Akira Kurosawa's Dreams and Dekalog. I literally have no idea what to expect from Dekalog, it's basically a blind buy, but based on comments in here from the initial Criterion sale in October it sounds like a great release. I just finished it last night. It's really great, great scores, great acting, great cinematography, great writing, very powerful human drama, subtle connections between the episodes, and it's even sometimes very funny. Good poo poo for sure, just take your time with it.

I'm watching Pan's Labyrinth. it's better than I remembered, and also when the fascists walk around, the foley artist or sound editor or whoever put really loud leather squeaking sounds in the mix, like almost louder than anything else that's going on. It's really funny and a reminder that fascists have bizarre repressed sexual urges, which is manifested by them brutalizing other ppl and being leather daddies.
