Wrong category. That one is in the so crap its almost funny category. Same as bws short film.  |
I introduced Shelbs to that movie earlier this year. Last weekend was Bad Boy Bubby.
I think this put me into the "Bad Mother" catergory.  |
Next weekend you guys should watch Madonnas "Sticky & Sweet" concert tour DVD. Its semi-soft porn but the music is good.

Nope, I find Madonna to be an ageing hag who is horrendous to look at. I don't want to scare her!

Kurosawa's your favourite director, I take it?  |
I can't really separate Kurosawa and Ray. I could have listed a dozen films by either of them anywhere from 2 to 10.
As for my number 1, I guess I have seen that on the big screen several hundred times - somehow, it just never pales or gets tired from where I am sitting. And its role as an educational tool on the small screen shouldn't be under-estimated - both my children were weaned off the Wiggles and the Hooley-Dooleys by repeated doses of Aunty Aretha and Uncle Ray. And Cousin James - well, as Jake says: "Jesus-H-God-blasted-Christ, I have seen The Light". |
I like Kurosawa and Ray a lot, but I really need to see more of their films. I really liked Pather Panchali and The World of Apu (particularly Ravi Shankar's score), but still haven't seen Aparajito or any of Ray's other films.
As an aside, Francois Truffaut is reported to have walked out of Pather Panchali, complaining that he had no interest in seeing Indians eat with their hands. What a pr*ck.

You should try to see Aparajito, if you can - the opening scenes of Varanasi are (IMO) among the most evocative in cinema. They (and the famous dance sequence in Jalsaghar) were enough to make me travel through India.
A few years ago, I was lucky enough to see a weekend of back-to-back screenings of many of Ray's films in Melbourne, organised by a local who hailed originally from Bengal and who harboured a burning passion for Ray's work. The films which left the biggest impression on me, apart from the Apu trilogy and Jalsaghar, were Mahanagar, Charulata, Distant Thunder, The Chess Players, The Home And The World, The Stranger and a made-for-TV short film (about 55 minutes) called Sadgati.
Did you see Ravi when he was here in 2010? Frail (as we all will be at 90) but his music was still breathtaking. |

No, but it sounds like it would have been mesmerising. Another film I really enjoyed scored by Ravi was the excellently surreal BBC production of Alice in Wonderland from 1966, which featured John Gielgud and Peter Sellers among other great British actors — the whole film's on Youtube if you want to have a look:

I HIGHLY recommend Human Nature - I found it by accident on SBS. It was one of those films that makes you keep watching because you just HAVE to know what the hell it's all about. I watched it until the end and then rented it on DVD the next day to watch the start - LOVED IT!!! It get's you thinking. And it's quite funny sometimes.
