Neither forget Eraserhead.
Tarantino goes in for a kind of schlock. And you have to wonder if the Maccabees movie would be helped or hurt by his advice.
Do you mean 'never forget Eracerhead'?
Indeed, I don't think I will. Weird, weird flick, even by Lynch standards. But I liked it. Not my favorite of his, but still good.
Yah, I need to get the whole TP thing too, haven't gotten around to it.
I have Blue Velvet, Mulholland Dr. and The Elephant Man on DVD, and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and Lost Highway on VHS.
Oh, and technically, I have Wild At Heart on VHS that I bought before I saw, but now having seen it, I don't really like it. It's only Lynch movie I don't like. (Well, I don't think I like Dune, but I haven't seen all of it)
So what if it may be slanted? You can't listen to alternate opinions? Athenians who invented the theater and drama and camedy made it a point to confront the demos.
A true movie about the Maccabees would show them to be just as bad as the Syrian-Greeks that they fought (i.e. just as intolerant).
You don't even like Reservoir Dogs or PF? The former is just a dynamite genre film. Intelligent and exciting.
Hopefully Tarantino won't wait long to make his war movie. If "Kill Bill" was any indication, I'm anticipating more good things.
Has there ever been a less political filmmaker than QT?
