If only Murrow had gone on an explosives-rampage, GNaGL could have been the best movie ever.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is there still a link somewhere for the Annie Proulx story that Brokeback Mountain was adapted from? I watched the movie on dvd yesterday afternoon and uh, I was expecting to be swept up into it and so far -- that isn't happening.
I think that one of my main impressions of the movie was the extreme poverty that both main characters lived in (well, up until the time that Jack marries into the farm equipment business) -
perhaps that made the biggest impression on me because I watched it less than two weeks after watching Texas Ranch House -- it's like, in 150 years - some things just don't change.

sumi, I think most of them have been taken down, but this one is still up, possibly because it's a slightly different version than the one that was published in Close Range, or possibly because it's a non-U.S. site.

So, if I was going to netflix Apocalypse Now, should I go for the original or the Redux? Or both?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Definitely the original -- all the Redux-added scenes did was make it longer.

I agree. I thought the Redux was interesting in the context of having seen the original way too many times, but it definitely shouldn't be your first experience of the movie.

Definitely agree with this.
