jonasholmberg Carlos Reygadas djävulshemsökta Post tenebras lux var poetisk, absurd och vacker. Folk buade men imho näst bäst so far efter Haneke. #Cannes 12:54 PM May 23rd via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival and 1 other

MaritKapla Rather than being fiction, Michael Haneke's Amour was like living 2 hrs of your life. (It also passed the Bechdeltest.) #cannes2012 1:56 PM May 20th via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival
MaritKapla Almost halfway at #cannes2012. 13 films seen, 12 by male dir, with generous definition, 4 did not pass the Bechdeltest, 2 almost did not. 3:17 PM May 20th via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival and 2 others
MaritKapla Hillcoat's Lawless: as entertaining as it was, you could tell already from the poster it wouldn't pass the Bechdeltest. #cannes2012 10:58 AM May 19th via Twitter for iPhone Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival
MaritKapla The Bechdeltesting is heating up. In 3 out of 5 films today, women were (when present at all) mainly wives, mothers and whores. #cannes2012 3:25 PM May 19th via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival and 2 others

MaritKapla In Weerasethakul's Mekong Hotel, mother and daughter talked about ghosts. It made the Bechdeltest. (Then mother ate daughter's intestins). 10:04 AM May 18th via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival and 2 others
MaritKapla Today's question: does the Bechdeltest only matter when you heap up a big amount of films? Or does it matter in the single film? #cannes2012 10:12 AM May 18th via web Retweeted by gbgfilmfestival
