Sorry for the light posting—I’ve got to watch fifteen films for the New York Asian Film Festival. And one of them is four hours long! Judging isn’t until July 5, but you know how it is; if you put such things off, one day you wake up and it’s July 3 and you’re all like, holy shit. So I’m trying to get a leg up.
My words can be found elsewhere, however. I had a fun chat with my new pals Jett Loe and Gareth Higgins at their blog/podcast series The Film Talk which is up now. The fellows are lively, knowledgeable, and very funny. And they’re having this ongoing feud about Aronofsky’s The Fountain, which I weigh in on near the end of our talk. Good times.
And later I’ll link to an interview I did with Anthony Harvey, the editor of Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove, about the film’s lost pie fight ending, over at the Auteurs’. Stay tuned.
For the record,
I did enjoy Eulogy.
Cheers Glenn, we enjoyed it! 🙂
I came across your blog via The Film Talk interview. I enjoyed your discussion with Gareth and Jett and especially your analysis of The Fountain. I think I have a greater appreciation of the film now that I can identify the elements which appealed to me (an appreciation honed by your wonderful and concise description). Thanks
