@cmasonwells Actually, no. In bed with the flu, working my way through obscure 70s stuff I've acquired.... 3:20 PM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to cmasonwells
The film was produced by Brut (yes, as in 66) and features a theme song by Lou Rawls. Can't get much more 70s than that... 3:18 PM Jun 1st via TweetDeck
WELCOME TO ARROW BEACH (1974): Bizarre-o cannibalism drama/thriller directed by (& starring) Laurence Harvey, who wants to eat Meg Foster. 3:18 PM Jun 1st via TweetDeck
@Cinelais Agreed -- both in aesthetic approach and subject matter. Both are examples of wish-fulfillment, but X being genuinely dark. 8:53 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to Cinelais
@labuzamovies Yeah....I could have done without the wrap-up as well, but I'm even willing to overlook that. 8:36 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck in reply to labuzamovies
I can't think of a better example of this-is-how-we-live-now. I'm talkin' Lars von Trier levels of nihilism. 8:34 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck
PROJECT X blew me away. The most honest, nihilistic American film I've seen in years. Did for me what AFTERSCHOOL did for @gemko. 8:34 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck
I love that there's a Twitter tribute account for NY character actor extraordinaire Joe Spinell. @JoeSpinell #ff 7:10 AM Jun 1st via TweetDeck
@JigsawLounge But come on...late-festival burnout + seeing multiple films each day -- clearly that was a factor in some of the knee-jerk. 2:07 AM Jun 1st via Twitter for Mac in reply to JigsawLounge
@JigsawLounge Clearly though there were MANY examples of (b) here on twitter, yeah? Those wave of the hand dismissals pissed me off... 1:58 AM Jun 1st via Twitter for Mac in reply to JigsawLounge
JigsawLounge Carlos Reygadas on Cannes: "You know, people here are tired, they’re paid to judge, and they think they have to judge before they feel." 1:39 AM Jun 1st via web Retweeted by Filmbrain and 9 others
Marijuana compound shown to be superior treatment for schizophrenia than antipsychotics, with fewer side effects: tinyurl.com/7vmbbw4 7:22 AM May 31st via TweetDeck
@filmboyd @Christa666 Agree with Boyd. An excuse to go eat popcorn, I guess, but little more.... 6:39 AM May 31st via TweetDeck in reply to filmboyd
@Christa666 @filmboyd There is of course this option... youtu.be/zv8RvNxy6uM 5:55 AM May 31st via TweetDeck in reply to Christa666
@sallitt Congratulations, Dan! Hope to see it (and you) in Edinburgh! 6:41 AM May 30th via TweetDeck in reply to sallitt
@Kringellek Heh --- fantastic. Thanks! 2:31 PM May 29th via web in reply to Kringellek
@vjmfilms It's strictly about the sound of the language itself. 12:08 PM May 29th via TweetCaster for Android in reply to vjmfilms
@vjmfilms They are, but it's incredibly amusing to hear the Norwegians poke fun at the Danish language. 10:50 AM May 29th via Twitter for Mac in reply to vjmfilms
@ExtAngel I plan to, and will style myself after Eroc from Grobschnitt: electricflower.ucoz.com/_bl/3/75000740… 10:46 AM May 29th via Twitter for Mac in reply to ExtAngel
@vjmfilms Been a while since I saw it, but, yeah, I think that was a "thing" throughout the film. 10:40 AM May 29th via Twitter for Mac in reply to vjmfilms
