When the news of the Giuliani scene first broke last week from what the media had been saying I was expecting to see a pedo lusting after a young child. All he looked to me to be guilty of was stupidity and he wasn't told until he was leaving the room that she was 15 after everything had already happened. Plus she was posing as a journalist, flirting with him and drinking scotch before anything happened. I am not defending him because I have never liked him but it's just another example of things being blown out of proportion to push an agenda.

Was never a big Sascha fan even as a child I never found Ali G funny, the Borat accent always annoyed me as well not to mention every second person was going around doing it after the first film was released and the film with the gay character wasn't great either.

In saying that I did find some parts in the new film very funny but overall it wasn't great.


The TV series he did a few years ago made in America or this is America is the best thing he has ever done I only watched the entire thing for the first a few weeks ago and it has some very funny scenes.
That last scene in the last episode with OJ Simpson... Holy fuck. At first I thought they were using some editing technique where SBC would be saying that shit when OJ wasn't in the room, but then they switch to a shot of them together and OJ reacting to him.

"I need your Johnny Cocrane"
"He's passed on to the other side, I'm afraid."
"What? You killed him too?"

:laugh: I don't even remember OJ in it. I was smoking while I was watching it and must of fell asleep towards the end I must rewatch the last episode.

It was the very last episode and I think it played in the middle of the credits as well.
I just hope he didn't run into OJ anywhere where there's no cameras


Carmilla.

A good movie.

Watched Calm With Horses this evening. Very very bad from start to finish. But not even in a good Fatal Deviation sort of bad way. Just diabolical in every way.

Kill List tonight, which I'd never seen. Quality. I've yet to be let down by a Ben Wheatley film, though A Field In England is far and away my favourite still.

I thought High Rise was shite and I have little interest in Rebecca, but he's generally quality. A Field In England is fantastic.

Only saw High Rise once in the cinema and enjoyed it, although was very aware that could easily not be enjoyed. Going to watch it again soon and see how my initial impression stands up. A Field In England is like Tarkovsky good for me, a genuine gem of cinema.

Should have been in colour (can you imagine how it would look with vivid colour grading?), but it's otherwise perfect.

Ah, Tarkovsky. I've got some backpay due in in the next few days, I feel a boxset coming on. I've only seen Stalker and Solaris, but both are cinematic masterpieces IMO.

I never actually imagined what it would look like in colour. Must have a think of that next time I watch it.

Start with Mirror if you haven't seen it. Totally different to but on a par with Solaris. Same need to sit or walk in silence with a smoke for an hour or so afterwards. Then Andrei Rublev. I've seen a couple of others too, all excellent, but those - along with Stalker - are the real stand outs for me.

I have stalker recorded here and the brother does implore me to watch it. Might throw it on tonight there's fuck all else doing. Just watched Titanic, but only started around where the iceberg hit so not bad. The Dead Pool is on in a bit as well. Half tempted to go with that

You need total contemplative and immersive focus for Stalker really. If you're not in that headspace, save it for another time.

I have a few cans and a blim and the wife is after going to bed. The stars are after aligning. I have a feeling it's not one to fall asleep to and try get back into it halfway through either though so it would want to be soon if I'm going to do the full 3 hours

Get on that train boy! You've everything you need for a picnic by the side of the road!

Noted, cheers.
