Tropic Thunder and Death Race.
Tropic Thunder was a riot. I haven't laughed so hard a a movie in a while. Death Race was general hotness!
Hot men, hot women and even HOTTER cars!
Excellent. The film is about a lonely man who goes into a desert canyon in Mexico to kill himself. Its not for everyone but it is such a wonderful debut from a director. I still don't why he decided to name this film Japon though.
Two Legged Horse
Directed by Samira Makhmalbaf
Toronto International Film Festival Debut
Very good film but may make some a little uncomfortable. I was really surprised at how good it was but saddened at the same time knowing that many people won't experience such a film like this because it probably won't be easy to rent it in the future.
The director did a Q&A after the film which became really interesting when an Afghanistan man yelled at her calling the film "very offensive". She kept her cool and answered all questions. Me and my sister (well mostly my sister) were able to talk to her for 10 minutes. REALLY REALLY nice woman. It depresses me when I meet people who have achieved such a great thing like directing their own film when myself and my sister know it will probably never happen to us. Bah, anyways the TIFF has been a great experience for the past three years I have been visiting it.
Here is a link that details the film furthermore...
Second viewing. I still think this is a great film that proves Harmony Korine still has a few tricks up his sleeve. The only scene I can't stand is with the singing eggs. Besides that its definitely a film I recommend to all you lonely lifers.
