Re: What is The Last Movie You Watched?
Watched The Place Beyond the Pines last night on HBO. Wasn't what I was expecting by the end. Really enjoyed it.

He's yet to agree that you agree:). Looking forward to the Golden Globes in about a half an hour. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are funny ladies, but nobody will ever compare to Ricky Gervais' hosting. Ballsy and sharp as a tack.

Is it true that only 90 people vote for the Golden Globes? I have a feeble view of awards, but this seems a pretty think spread of opinion....

Thanks. I'm glad somebody enjoyed that. Abdullah is more complex than we thought. His mom's a great gal and I'm glad she doesn't have to work at the funeral home anymore. One of the good stories from professional wrestling about one of the most notorious heels.

Around you I would never get complacent Stavros. Yes, you are quite right. I hugely admire Tarkovsky. And on quite a few of the political threads - even if I am weaker on some of the details than you.
Re: What is The Last Movie You Watched?
As I recall I liked Shame more than you did. I wasn't sure if McQueen was going to use his long shots in 12 Years a Slave but he does at a few critical junctures, the flogging of Patsey is one but there is another, toward the end when Solomon is held in mainframe looking around his landscape and gradually catches the camera's eye before moving away; intense and distressing in a way. Some critics of the film don't seem to appreciate McQueen started out with installations and is perhaps more of a film-maker moving from conceptual art into film rather than a conventional story teller although this his is most conventional film. Can't get Drumroll (1998) on the web it was one of his celebrated installations.
