A Beautiful Mind / Glitter lol
I loved it, but then I'm guilty of having simplified the entire film into an allegory on the fickle nature of filmmaking in Hollywood: a movie about making a movie, like 8 1/2 (kind of...) The business with the cast changing character three-quarters of the way through and the upheaval surrounding the imagined film of the subplot mirrored each other in my head. It's probable it's all incidental, and there's probably a more notable meaning intended, but all hell breaks loose once I start thinking too much about imagined conspiracies and wrongfully-placed blames amid dreams, or alternate realities. I suppose the less you 'get', the better.coralmilk said:Plus, there is a soft spot in my hate list for Mulholland Drive. Lynch is purely amazing but this film was just oh well. Far too pretentious and complicated and overrated. Maybe I just didn't get it but who actually did? I mean, what is there to get? Farfetched.

and i didn't like the end of kiss me deadly. why no dinosaurs that came and ate everyone?
i found the ending of blowup the most frustrating i've ever seen, but the film grew on me just because of that, i think.
and i didn't like the ending of repulsion very much, it seemed a little plump with the freeze-frame on the family picture. (uh, i hope i remember that correctly.)
