    "There apparently are other reasons to see Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona besides the infamous lesbian kiss between Scarlett Johansson and Penélope Cruz or the threesome between these actresses and Javier Bardem. But as the first things most of us heard about the movie, the sex scenes are certainly a big sell (the ménage à trois is even being used in a promotional contest to win a “threesome” with ScarJo). Even if they’re reportedly underwhelming. Promise of tantalizing footage has been an appeal for moviegoers likely since the dawn of cinema, with film pioneer Eadweard Muybridge’s The Human Figure in Motion - Descending Stairs and Turning Around featuring nudity as far back as the 1880s. And if you’ve seen any of the titles included in today’s list, chances are their respective sex scenes were at least part of what made you buy a ticket (or rent the video). [More]

    "Andrew Sarris may be one of the most influential American film critics, but here’s a claim, located within his recent review of In Search of a Midnight Kiss, that may not hold up to some of his better-remembered theories: “Even when we confront 40-year-old virgins of either gender, movies refuse to show them compensating for the lack of a sexual partner. There is lasting shame involved in this spectacle.” Not to ever, ever profess superiority over Sarris, but I’ve nonetheless compiled today’s list as a way of proving the man wrong. There are actually tons and tons of masturbation scenes found in non-porn movies, from the low brow to the high brow, from as indirect as the boy wizard playing with his wand under the covers in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban to as direct as the non-simulated masturbation in Michael Winterbottom’s 9 Songs and John Cameron Mitchell’s Shortbus (which would probably feature my #1 pick, from the sound of it, if I ev " [More]

    "The idea for this analysis came to mind when I recently saw Bergman's The Seventh Seal. While I was not quite as blown away by the film as most accolades of the film would suggest, I still found it to be an excellent movie, and could see very clearly the influence it has had on so many films that have come after it. The one scene that I especially noticed a direct legacy in later films was a short, almost gimmicky little snippet during the medieval religious cult scene in the town--where the drums are beating loudly, people are screaming in agony as whips crack, and monks and other repenters are carrying enormous crosses on their backs. There is a short string of profile shots: Antonius, Jons, and "The Girl" (the only specific name I could find for her anywhere on the internet). The cuts between the faces are done with the beats of the drums; they are perfectly centered, with mist or smoke rising in the backgrounds, adding to each image's raw, black-and-white imagery; and each f ...

    "My list, in continuation… 6. Fargo See my blog entry on it…it’s a while back, but I feel it’s pretty comprehensive as to how fricken incredible this movie is. 7. Chinatown An absolute classic. Jack Nicholson’s greatest role, and an amazing turn by Faye Dunaway. See my review of it…it’s a little while back as well. 8. Mulholland Drive This David Lynch masterpiece of the absurd is just plain awesome. Everything in his power is brought full-on into creating one of the most hypnotizingly gorgeous films ever put onto the screen. T " [More]

    "What would we do without this bloke? I made a word up (i think) to explain this to myself,and how damn good it is... A "prismatic" masterpiece ...it messes with dreams and time in a way that it seems to bend around in a loop,radiating from the centre,or two-thirds through... you can go back for more,time after time...this spoilt me for other movies for at least a year. Naomi Watts took on iconic status for many , i'm sure,following this. We hear her briefly,of course in "Inland Empire" ,where Laura Dern ventures further into the labyrinth...I know not everyone has got time for Lynch,but,like taking pleasure in the other visual Arts,i'm just glad of the exclusivity...

    "Yesterday BoingBoing pointed to an article on The Psychologist Online by Huw Green that argues that David Lynch’s work, particularly Inland Empire, is an accurate depiction of what it’s like for someone with a psychotic illness to encounter reality. I immediately thought of last week’s episode of FilmCouch, in which I used Lynch, a new documentary about the filmmaker, as a point of entry to talk about his recent work. I compared Mulholland Dr. and Inland Empire to recent films penned by Charlie Kaufman, namely Being John Malkovich, [More]

    "Lynch, a new documentary about the often imitated but never duplicated auteur, gives us an excuse to see how titles like Mulholland Dr. and Inland Empire stack up to the next generation’s attempt at mind-bending cinema.

    "Director David Lynch is one of the most bizzare directors of our time. Once again, he continues to keep our interests in check with a spinning web of intrigue and danger. Naomi Watts is one of the most promissing actresses in Hollywood. Her performance as Betty, the naive actress from Deep River, Ontario (just east of Ottawa) is genuine and sincere. Laura Elena Herring's pressence as Rita is just mezzmerising. She's one of the most beautiful women I've scene on film. The camera just loves her! However, the film story and plot is enough to frustrate the average viewer. If you've scene some of Lynch's other work (minus "Dune", "The Straight Story" and "The Elephant Man"), you'll know you're in for a challenge. Fans of "Twin Peaks" will enjoy this one! Aside from the twists and turns and the bizarre sub-plots, this film is 80% percent good, 100% percent weird! " [More]

    "Mulholland Drive is a David Lynch dream. Now, David is not interested in my dreams. Why should I be interested in his? Although Naomi Watts gives a brilliant performance as the young woman who goes from Deep River, Ontario to corrupt Hollywood, the story makes no sense. With movies as with poetry, you must decide a fundamental: Should the poem or the movie make sense? Although it is politically incorrect to generalize, I’ll bet that people who are extremely divergent tend to go into movie making or movie critiquing more than they go into accounting or auditing. Consequently, quite a few movie critics say that this movie makes no sense and they love it. Although I found it fascinating to watch, I think it is irresponsible writing and directing to make a movie that makes no sense. " [More]
