I'm a big fan of David Milch, stretching all the way back to the 80s but I've learned my lesson with HBO. I wait to see how a series pans out in the first season or two before committing to it. Carnivale and Deadwood were two very disappointing cancellations for me. Now I hear Daniel Knauf (Carnivale creator) is writing an HBO/BBC miniseries called Year Zero. This I will look ...

Le joli mai - 3/5 - The documentary is split into two chapters (1. Prayer from the Eiffel Tower and 2. The Return of the Fantomas). The spring of 1962 was the first peacetime spring the French had since the start of WWII in 1939. Now with the Algerian War at an end Chris Marker takes his camera to the streets in a Cinéma vérité style of interviews with the ...

Springtime in Paris, 1962: The documentary is split into two chapters (1. Prayer from the Eiffel Tower and 2. The Return of the Fantomas). The spring of 1962 was the first peacetime spring the French had since the start of WWII in 1939. Now with the Algerian Wars at an end Marker takes his camera to the streets in a Cinéma vérité style of interviews with the everyday inhabitants of Paris to see why ...

About as good as it gets for a television series: Anyone familiar with the 1980 BBC collection of Shakespeare Tragedies will feel right at home here. Like the Tragedies the production value is low, usually only 1 or 2 indoor sets per episode, but that's not what is on display here. It's all about the performers. I've seen Cate Blanchett's portrayal and I've seen Hellen Mirren's HBO miniseries in 2005. They pale in comparision to Glenda Jackson. She is Queen ...

Wonderful pictorial with some amazing writing: One reviewer I read called it a pictorial without obvious purpose. I can agree with that, yet at the same time it's one of those films that get you thinking so profoundly that I found myself watching it a second time. The movie's premise is that travelogues and notes were sent to the female who narrates the film. She recites most of the author's text with "He wrote." A lot ...

Amazing film: My first foray into the mysterious and mesmerizing filmography of the ever reclusive Chris Marker. I was wondering how long I would be able to sit through a film of nothing but stills. I became too captivated to care as the movie progressed. In fact, I was a little upset how short it ended up being.I was a little perplexed as to why these experimental scientists wanted him dead. After ...

It's nice that media figures are always letting me know what Americans—as a whole—believe.

Really surprised how good Mysterious Girlfriend X is. Tried it to see how weird it is and now it's probably my favourite this season #anime
