Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Finally saw Bleu last night. So wistful and dark and richly visual and just plain wonderful. I have meaning to see it for 12 freaking years, since everything I heard about it made it seem the kind of film I would love, and, yep, I sure did.
Juliette Binoche rooools.
I think they are both good movies just in REALLY different ways.
I love Bleu, but I love Rouge just a smidgeon more. The whole trilogy is great though.
I have not seen any of the trilogy. I am a bad film fan.
Bad Seany!

Me neither. (I don't know if it's better or worse that I'm pretty sure we own it, I just haven't watched them yet. Or maybe we don't. I can't remember.)
I can't watch Blue without obsessing over Binoche's haircut. It's like the perfect haircut!
God, yes.
I am a bad film fan.
Should there be spanking?
Amazon has the box set of the trilogy for about $30, and it's worth every penny.
That reminds me, I've tried Kieslowski's The Decalogue about 7-8 years ago and couldn't really get into it. Maybe it's time to give it another go.
