You can say amen any time. Von Trier ...Thanks Joel. You can say amen any time. Von Trier does know that, and you need to see Melancholia right now! <br /><br />I have not heard about Dunham's Ray and Godfather comments. I'm not surprised though, considering. If you read Paulette as you suggest you learn all about people like Dunham, the elite who sneered at her praise for Taxi Driver and The Fury.Erich Kuerstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02850572368098319317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30487573.post-82561982933433787242012-01-07T20:51:29.051-05:002012-01-07T20:51:29.051-05:00Can I say Amen to your last paragraph if I haven&#...Can I say Amen to your last paragraph if I haven't seen any of these? Is THAT shallow? Between your description of Tiny Furniture and the filmmaker's bon mots about not seeing the big deal in Nick Ray or The Godfather I'm already pretty prejudiced against it.<br /><br />I suspect that Dunham & her ilk would be better off dumping their years of film theory and just reading Trash, Art, and the Movies once.

Von Trier knows that (but then I haven't seen Melancholia yet either, so I'm really getting out of my league here...)Joel Bockohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11238338958380683893noreply@blogger.com
