Okay this isn’t post-dated.
I’ve got fifteen minutes spare.
How quickly can I cut and paste and make sense?
- How about ten best film endings? (Fedora-tip: Infinite Monkeys by way of The Incomparable.)
- I’ve been a fan of Dylan Horrocks since Hicksville (a phase of forcing myself to try some homegrown comics fare). He’s got a blog. With serials and stories, too! Recommended for civilians and comic aficionados alike.
- PhD student Gareth James is very generously sharing some of the fruits of his research into the history of HBO original programming, 1997-2007 at Gareth On…. (Fedora-tip: Lynden Barber.)
Time’s up already. Must be a slow linker.
I know that list of top ten endings is always going to be subjective and that dude is entitled to his own opinion but did he set himself a target of only having movies made before 1981? Even so I am surprised there was no Planet of the Apes or Soylent Green in that list. PS I am not a Heston fanboy as it may appear.
i suspect a case of WWDW: wrinkly white dude writing.
blatant ageism, racism and whatever other ~ism people might want to throw at me aside, i had to trawl my watching diary (don’t laugh) to throw together the following – in reverse order that i watched them in:
Michael Clayton
Lars and the Real Girl
A Scanner Darkly
Everything is Illuminated
Infernal Affairs
The Woodsman
Pieces of April
The Constant Gardener
Ringu
