Body: Before the Music Dies opens viewers' eyes to what has been happening not in the music industry per se, but to music itself. Not to be confused with the history of music, but rather how in present day, record labels' pre-packaged pieces of eye candy with little or no talent are the ones given contracts and then glorified by the media. It's about real, independant musicians not only being harder to come by (especially if you're still listening to the radio for your source of 'new' music - try the internet instead), but also less likely to flourish. For two guys that, according to IMDB, had never made a film before, the movie is impressive. They interviewed some really talented and informed people. My only qualm with the film was that the pacing was a little too fast at many points. Besides that, I think it's a great film to raise questions and conversation about music and where it's headed.

Gingerdead man was pretty fun, some of the acting was a little bad but Gary Busey was his crazy self, I wish they would have shown more of him and his antics, that was pretty clever. No Such Thing was really good. I had to stop analyzing the movie because it bugged me that this ancient monster that was hiding out in IceLand had perfect sarcastic American Speech. But it really had an endearing quality to it and was very sad. You really could understand how the monster was feeling.

Body: What to say what to say... as a lover of B-movie horror flicks that have gone totally wrong, I must say this is quite spectacular. The acting was terrible, the writing was worse, the sound effects don't even pass and the camera angles/lighting would make any professional want to kill... a fetus? KILLER FETUS! How could that not be a good plot line?Even before viewing this movie I was laughing at the tag-line "All he wanted was a cuddle". Some lines I enjoyed, "You don't raise your voice to big mama!" and through out the beginning of the film various characters would continue to command someone to do something, followed by an elongated pause and then "NOW!" at which point the person would listen. My friends and I can't stop quoting this movie.And don't forget the guy that gets outside the house, and is surrounded by a hand knit blanket of yarn environment, or how Big Mama looks like a combination of a referee and Beetle Juice. This movie is a must see for anyone that loves horribly made yet delightfully entertaining movies. No matter what is said, you really must see it to fully understand the ridiculousness and joy of "The Suckling".

Body: 'Palindromes' was probably the oddest film I have seen so far, but I kind of liked it. Every controversial topic, from abortion to sex to pedophilia is in it, and although you may have opinions on these topics it really makes you question them. The whole "let's change the main character’s actress every scene" was not as weird as you might imagine... it just further emphasized the point of the film that it doesn’t matter what you look like or how you appear to others, you're always the same person no matter what age you are, no matter how you change your appearance - you can't change who you are. I read somewhere that this was showing us how Aviva [the main character] kept viewing herself differently, but I took it more along the lines of looks don't matter, only personality really counts. Towards the end of the film a supporting charactor sums up this whole idea quite nicely.As dark as it is, there are a couple funny parts, although I wasn't sure if it was appropriate or not to laugh. Be open-minded going into this film. It's kind of awkward, but it made me want to see other films by this director, like Welcome to the Dollhouse. Also, the main song, I think it's called Lullaby or Aviva Pastoral, by Nathan Larson is amazing. You can download it for free from his website, I believe.

Every controversial topic, from abortion to sex to pedophilia is in it, and although you may have opinions on these topics it really makes you question them.

Body: I don't know much about English Cinema, but I thought this was fantastic. Supposedly it painted a pretty realistic picture of skinheads at the time, but I can't vouch for that; however, it seemed pretty realistic to me. It showed vulnerability and sensitivity, along with anger, frustration and racism. The main actor, only 13 yrs old and having never acted before = amazing. Cinematography = quiet and beautiful, even in the darker moments. Also, the ending is captivating. Go see this film.

Body: Junebug produces mixed feelings. The acting was pretty fantastic, even the kid from the OC (Benjamin McKenzie) was great, and all the characters were convincing - except George who is kind of in the background for most of the movie. A lot of the movie is predictable, and it is somewhat slow. My interest was never really lost, but by the end of it, only a feeling of 'blah' remained. The enviornment was set up quite nicely with long cuts of every empty room in the quiet house, but if it wasn't for chipper Ashley it would have been too drab. I would not watch this movie again, but props to the acting and the quiet Dad who you might fall in love with (the bird at the end is a cute touch).

Body: I saw this for the first time at age 20 so it wasn't nostalgic at all for me; however, it was exactly what I wanted it to be - cute, shallow and all in 80s clothes. if you feel like sitting back and having a few chuckles without having to think about anything, this is for you. Plus the jacket art is awesome.
