Aaaand, to tie 2 discussions together. I adored him as Orsino to Helen Hunt's Viola in the Twelfth Night I saw.
Oh, yeah.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
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 Fassbinder had a few years on those other two. But I'm too lazy to confirm or deny.
Huh. Went and checked IMDB, and Herzog's '42, and the other two are both '45. Of course Fassbinder died in '82, so he probably gets perceived as older (along with his ridiculous volume of output - 43 movies credited to him as director between '66 and '82!).

Man! Fassbinder wasn't even 40 when he died! Crazy!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Also, someone linked to it earlier as a "very buffista movie."
I haven't seen the film but I thought Adam pulling God's finger was buffista kinda humor.
ETA: so Brenda: please go see it and tell us how it is!

The Ten features Winona Ryder in the 'Thou shalt not steal" section, iirc.

Just that might be worth the price of admission.

One can only hope that they continue the theme by casting Jude Law in the one that deals with adultery and Kevin Spacey in the one about coverting your neighbor's ass.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No one would happen to have a suggestion for a scary movie that's airing in theatres this month, would they?

I've heard decent things about 1408 (decent enough to want to see it), but I think it's run is pretty much done.
