Film Log


I watched 6 feature films in the past 2 days:
***************************

1. 711 Ocean Drive, 1950 Joseph M. Newman, pretty cool film noir starring the always great Edmund O'Brien as a high tech telephone expert who gets sucked into a gambling syndicate and eventually rises to be the kingpin.


2. Monsieur Verdoux, 1947 Charles Chaplin, weird late Chaplin film. A black comedy about a married "bluebeard" who seduces wealthy women, kills them and then steals their money with the original story idea coming from Orson Welles


3. Jonestown: Life and Death of the People's Temple, 2006 Stanley Nelson, amazing but depressing and disturbing documentary about mass murderer Jim Jones


4. Night Moves, 1975 Arthur Penn, great 70's existential noir starring Gene Hackman, riyl The Long Goodbye


5. Monks: The Transatlantic Feedback, 2006 Lucia Palacios and Dietmar Post, (playing at Anthology Film Archives now! till 11/6), awesome documentary about the Monks, go see it


6. W.,  2008 Oliver Stone (saw a mouse in the Union Square theater, filed a complaint) kind of a boring, straight film, not the usual Stone bravado and experimental style, not sure what i think about this one yet ... fantastic performance by the always superb Josh Brolin though.
