I just saw Requiem for a Dream. Again a great movie by Darron. I hated The Fountain though.

So have there been any movies, besides Canadian Bacon, that are actually set in Toronto, and not just filmed there?

I can't wait to see Cronenberg's new film, Eastern Promises...looks amazing.

I saw a preview for this recently and Naomi Watts is in it so now have to see it for sure. Naomi Watts is so hot.

I might add movies like Goodfellas and Scarface never get old.

I don't know but the aforementioned David Cronenberg is from Toronto and went to U of T and they have a big film festival here.

I got into a press screening of Eastern Promises. The projector broke 30 minutes in, but it seemed like it was about to take off into coolness (no worries, I got some free tickets as a result).

 

[Pessimism]

How does one go about getting into free screenings? I've lways wanted too but have never known how.

 

[CF87]

Anyone else really like the movie The Island ?

Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson are in it and excellent.

I watched a German movie called The Lives Of Others last night. It was a rather excellent story about East Germany not long before the wall came down, and the craziness of the secret police trying to control every free thought in the country.

A few of them live here and went to my highschool.


I watched the Prestige tonight. It was excellent.

I highly enjoyed the prestige as I did with all of Christopher Nolan's work (minus Insomnia)
