Re: [scifinoir2] Push
Hadn't even heard of Medicine for Melancholy, thanks for the head's up! As for The International, the McClatchy film critic--who's by default becoming almost the sole newspaper critic since many major dailies are eliminating the position---said something interesting about it. It said it was okay, a solid if unremarkable effort. But what got me was that he felt the need to note that it's a slow movie by today's standard. Part of the critique was actually that it's expository, that it's not a Bourne type flick. Now to be fair, I tend to think (hope?) that he wasn't favoring the new action-heavy spy movies, but was simply warning people who think Bourne is the new standard that this ain't that type of flick. But still, reading that made me so sad. It's like the latest Bond flick: some people decry its Bourne-type action, others say at least it's exciting now. I found its focus on nausea-inducing quick shots and over-the-top action to be offputting after a while. I love great action in Bond movies, but I want them surrounded and supported by something approaching a good story and solid acting. Similarly, while most people hail the hyperactive third Bourne movie as the best of the franchise (and it was amazing with its action), I prefer the more balanced first movie. That one was suspenseful as we went along with Bourne to find out who he was, had a nice subplot with him pairing up with the lady, great intrigue with the shadowy government guys after him, and then bound it all up with satisfying action. That was a great spy flick to me, and it saddens me too that even with Bourne, people are slicing out just one aspect of the franchise to represent the whole. The thing is, Bourne is just one type of spy movie, and shouldn't be the default. Don't we have room for both suspenseful and action-heavy spy movies? - Original Message - From: Daryle Lockhart dar...@darylelockhart.com To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2009 12:48:35 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: Re: [scifinoir2] Push I'm in for The International.

Re: [scifinoir2] Push
I've seen them all except Delta. I have Badass on DVD, which is awesome becaus ethe interview with Van Peebles is so much better than the film. Speaking of chasing down in theaters, I just got a copy of Chameleon Street on DVD and interviewed the director. It'll be online soon to check out and/or download by March.

Re: [scifinoir2] Push
Independent films are films produced without a major studio. You can rent them anywhere, from Blockbuster to Netflix. Well, ALMOST anywhere. You rented Sankofa from Blockbuster?

Re: [scifinoir2] Push
You ever seen those e-mails questionnaires that float around? I've gotten some over the years with questions to determine if you're a real black person or not. The standard is an e-mail questionnaire with questions like What did Florida say at the end of the 'Good Times' ep when James died, or, What character always entered the scene by saying 'Wooo-weee!'? When some of my friends sent that e-mail my way a while back, I countered with a questionnaire that included all the movies below, asking if they'd seen them. I then chided those who hadn't. I consider viewership of all the below essential for all black people, especially Sankofa, the closest thing in some ways to that Nat Turner film we keep waiting for. Down on The Delta, directed by Maya Angelou, is a sweet and comfortable-feeling movie of a splintered black family, and Once Upon a Time... is a great pre-Civil Rights era film that's just a slice-of-life in a Southern town, and I love the fact that Tim and Daphne Reid are behind it. - Original Message - From: Reece Jennings mcjennings...@yahoo.com To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2009 6:02:35 PM GMT -05:00 US/Canada Eastern Subject: RE: [scifinoir2] Push I've seen ALL of these, I believe!
