Body: GREAT LIST! I defense of my pic, Val Kilmer as Doc Hollidy is one of my favortie characters of all time. Especially in westerns, the line between good and bad is skewed. Butch and Sundance were basically thieves and murders. But they did it with pizzazz and that made them the good guys. On the other hand, in a movie like Shane the good guy is almost saint like. The villians in The Magnificent Seven (if placed in the proper context) could be the anti-hero / good guy in a different western. So basied on morals, or lack of them, Doc Holiday was not a good guy. But Val Kilmers repersentation of him, his manorisms, his personality, made him a great character and a good guy to me.

Body: I had an epiphany tonight while watching a movie. The mark of a truly great film is that it get the viewer invested in it and motivates them. Examples of this are Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. After watching this you can’t help but want to be a better American. It makes you believe in something. When the theme of the film is dark like Se7en, the connection you make with Brad Pitts character at the films climax can not be understated. You have to put yourself in his shoes, and it forces you to ask yourself questions you normally wouldn’t. A few other examples are: the gut wrenching feeling you get every time Bogey watches the plane take off in Casablanca (the definition of bittersweet), white knuckling the arm chair when the bolder almost flattens Indy. I still get goose bumps when I hear, “Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.” As a movie lover and a wanna be film maker, I have had this feeling many time watching independent movies and thinking, “I could make a movie like that”. David Lynch is a master of making incredibly complicated movies look easy. Wes Anderson is the same way. Tonight I had this same sensation watching the film Black Snake Moan. I will review this movie later, but by the time it was over I found myself thinking I should learn to play blues guitar. The movie is brilliantly shot, the story is formulaic in the “boy with problems meets girl with problems, and they somehow work it out and they both end as better people”. However writer / director Craig Brewer doesn’t follow convention. The story is raw, gritty, and exploitive. For a fair amount of the movie Ricci’s character is chained to Sam Jackson’s radiator. I will write it again. CHAINED TO THE RADIATOR! But that isn’t the focus of the film. It is not even a gimmick. The people in the movie find it unbelievable, but after an explanation and discussion with Ricci, they think that it might not be that bad of an idea. I highly recommend this movie for peole who love movies. The scene where Lazarus (Jackson) performs the Title song “Black Snake Moan” is one of the best scenes I have seen this year!

Body: I just watched David Lynch's Eraserhead for the first time tonight. I found myself drawing many comparisons to Daren Aronofsky's Pi. There is the obvious link that they are both filmed in black and white. However the use of sound or noise to fill the empty void is in both films. The white out is in both. The sultry neighbor also present in both pieces. There is a unity in the grotequeness of the pictures with the dipection of the "baby" in Eraserhead being dicected, and the brain on the subway in PI. There is a drilling into the skull in each picture. A mechainacal devation in both.I enjoyed Pi more, but have tremendous respect for the work of David Lynch and his first feature seems to have been apperciated (copied) by many of the top directors working today.

Body: American Psycho was a major let down for me. I thought Christian Bale's performance was over the top and the entire supporting cast was under the bottom. There is no explaination as to what drove Bale character to murdering all those people. There could have been some attempt to tie in the yuppie culture with murderous madness but it was lost by me. The gore looked fake, there was little suspence, and the the jokes fell flat. There were long discertations about 80's pop music (which I think were an attempt to capitolize on Tarintino's style) that were completely meaninglesd and did nothing to advance the film along. This movie was like Natural Born Killers meets Wallstreet but without Oliver Stone there to direct.
