'Cult' films?

Carlito's Way?

anyone said After Hours yet? Love that film

watched this last night. Did not enjoy. Maybe just not in the right mood but everthing just seemed to fall short in the caper category of things and the dude has an intrusive monobrow to boot. Interesting to see a different side of Scorsese i suppose...

Griffin Dunne, star of something approaching a cult film - An American Werewolf in London

'Stick tut path lads'

Finished Twin Peaks last night..

**********Do not read on if you haven't watched the ending***********

Actually quite sad (ha) that Dale Cooper is now the host for Bob, but I have a feq questions. Bob took form of Laura's father and then killed Laura, does this mean Laura's father visited the black lodge? The final scene is good Dale Cooper being chased by evil Dale Cooper? Also Bob takes the soul of Windom Earle near the end, does that mean he's been inside him all along when he was doing evil things?

Also, when Cooper gets a visit from the Giant, why is nobody else moving except Log Lady?

What happened to Donna's family and Benjamin Horne? What about Audrey? What about Norma, Ed and Nadine? and other characters like Leo, Shelly, Bobby, James, Andy, Lucy?

A third series was planned but the original creators, David Lynch and Mark Frost, lost interest. The second series dips very badly and is much too long and ponderous, although it begins and ends superbly with runs of episodes with lots in common to the best of the first series. Part of that's down to the writing and directing duties being handled by Frost and Lynch themselves, rather than the terrible results when hacks had been appointed in replacement and whose work was just a nasty pastiche lacking proper weirdness.

Add that to growing audience dissatisfaction at the time, who wanted the whole thing wrapped up long before the second series even thought of getting round to it, and the ratings dipped - not a good mixture with creators who had watched their original vision get ridiculed during the worst episodes of the embarrassing, flabby middle of series two. Maybe all you mention would have been wrapped up in another series, but what became the final scene of all turned into a chilling and unexpected close.

For me, Benjamin Horne is one of the best developed characters and finest performances of them all. He's in every episode and always watchable. Also great is Albert. I already loved RoboCop when I got into Twin Peaks, so seeing several actors being picked from that film made me appreciate Lynch even more.

Donnie Darko.

If you've not seen it, stop what you're doing and watch it. It's a bizarre and wonderful love story.

Also writer/director Richard Kelly next film, Southland Tales.
Super weird and barely understandable, but entertaining. Try and get the prequel comic books, I don't think it helps much, but they are good too.

Never heard of it. Did it get much press at the time?

Not a single word.
As far as I know the press review embargo is still in place.

Ruby Sparks - It was released a couple of years ago and didn't get a lot of press to my knowledge. Me and the girl were the only 2 in the cinema watching at the time.

Bit of a frothy rom-com that turns dark about 2/3rds through. Paul Dano is great in it.

Auto Focus seems to be a very overlooked film, but it’s one of my favourites. Directed by Paul Schrader, behind the screenplays for Raging Bull and Taxi Driver no less, it’s interestingly shot and staged, at times resembling a play, while convincingly showing the decline of an American television personality into sex addiction. Superb turns from Greg Kinnear and Willem Dafoe.
