I am Corwood. It's weird to not feel the love for a movie that most people that share my taste really really love. See also Lost In Translation.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
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.

I thought "Brokeback" was good but somehow I missed the deep love.
I missed the deep love of Lost in Translation. I spent the whole movie going, Yes? And?
Me too, though I didn't hate it. My heartstrings are hard to work these days. The last one that did was "The Boys of Baraka".(Which I recommend to all Wire fans, in advance of the Education Season)
The last movie that tugged the heartstrings (actually took an axe to the heartstrings) was Mysterious Skin. Beautifully made and just devastating.
I quite liked Mysterious Skin. I also have a hugely strong emotional reaction to Lost in Translation, as I've discussed here many times.
I rather liked Lost In Translation, but I didn't think it was better than, say, The Virgin Suicides.
