As far as I know you can't post in that folder.

 

But Banky is of course not impressed. He and VX shouldn't have had that done to them.

Don't Look Back (Bob Dylan documentary from 1967)

this is pretty good. pennebaker spoke here on campus a couple weeks ago for a documentary class i almost took.

 

Breathless (original version, directed by Jean Luc Godard)

i adore this movie (especially the first 45 minutes or so), but if you thought the wandering shot in 'taxi driver' was annoyingly self-referential, you will probably loathe it. being metafilmic and self-referential is godard's whole schtick.

if you can get all the way through this, i will give you several dollars. i've tried four times and still can't get past the second scene.

Well, I've seen and enjoyed Contempt, so I'm not completely unfamiliar with Godard.

 

As for self-referentiality, I can dig it (David Foster Wallace uses it frequently), but it just didn't belong in Taxi Driver. That one scene wrecks the flow of the movie.
