While doing that, It's also palpable to senses, one could relate to the characters. Kevin Smith writes interesting dialogue. And hold on a minute, that's perhaps Ben Affleck's best performance. No wonder Qt wanted to cast him once. Think he might still, to surprise us all. :)
Whatever Works
Absolutely nothing new
In facts puts in words subtleties of older films
But but but I thoroughly enjoyed it
I guess I like pretty much nearly everything this guy writes on these subjects
Interiors
That there was a decided absence of humour and adoption of Bergman's style meant I was never going to take the effort of watching it. Was surfing channels today and caught it on MGM.
It was not as bad as I expected. I was expecting a thorough borefest.
Me too...not bad eh. Been avoiding it. What are there to look for? I know, the writing eh?Quote:

I mean 'its got its fifteen seconds of silent descent down the stairs' scenes which I would have railed against had it been anyone else's film. If I persisted on that line of that it looked like I may be tempted to revisit Cries and Whispers. I google for some Gounder videos and restored myself.

But intha padam, poster paarkum-bothe padu-pretentiousnous velipatturuchi. That's why...maybe when I am much older and am with more patience, time and have complete control over the remote err..control, I'll revisit it.

She would be seeing out the window (which seemed to be a deep metaphor almost like "Blindness" in Crimes & Misdemeanors) at trees with no leaves. The idea of placing the narrative from winter to summer coincides with passing on from one (distant and cold) mother to another (warmly and colorful). That's just one apart from the opening of the film. It's paced with verbal exchanges and introspection through other devices (voice-over, to analyst, diary). As you said, Woody Allen in content. But then that's pretty much Bergman style. Bergman indulges in deeper verbolatry than predominant visual narrative like Antonioni, for example.
Oh man, once again, frighteningly close to my taste. :shock:Quote:
