9/10 The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara (2003)

A film about the former US Secretary of Defense and the various difficult lessons he learned about the nature and conduct of modern war.

Silmiä avaava Errol Morrisin dokumentti, jota suosittelen kaikille. Sisältää tarinoita tapahtumien keskipisteistä ja mielenkiintoisia kommentteja kuten:

Robert McNamara:

In the end, it was luck. We were this close to nuclear war, and luck prevented it.

9/10 Mysterious Skin (2004)

A teenage hustler and a young man obsessed with alien abductions cross paths, together discovering a horrible, liberating truth.

Kolmas kivi auringosta -tyyppi vakavassa ja uskottavassa roolissa. Hienosti rakennettu elokuva täynnä kummallisia, mutta mielenkiintoisia hahmoja.

9/10 Jisatsu sâkuru (2001)

A detective is trying to find the cause of a string of suicides.

Teinit ja uusin muotivillitys: itsemurhat. Elokuvan loppu on niin kaukana kaikesta elokuvassa aiemmin nähdystä, että ei voi kuin ihmetellä mistä Shion Sono on ideansa saanut.

9/10 La piel que habito (2011)

aka: Iho jossa elän, The Skin I live In.

A brilliant plastic surgeon, haunted by past tragedies, creates a type of synthetic skin that withstands any kind of damage. His guinea pig: a mysterious and volatile woman who holds the key to his obsession.

Elokuva, jossa on ainakin kolme täysin eri tasoa. Pedro Almodóvarin kädenjälki näkyy juonessa, koko elokuvaa kantaa se tietty tunne.

9/10 Threads (1984)

Documentary style account of a nuclear holocaust and its effect on the working class city of Sheffield, England; and the eventual long term effects of nuclear war on civilization.

9/10 Drive (2011)

9/10 Exit Through the Gift Shop (2010)

The story of how an eccentric French shop keeper and amateur film maker attempted to locate and befriend Banksy, only to have the artist turn the camera back on its owner. The film contains footage of Banksy, Shephard Fairey, Invader and many of the world’s most infamous graffiti artists at work.

Hieno dokumentti. Banksy ja Shepard Fairey tekevät tästä erityisen hienon, mutta mysteerinen Thierry Guetta tuo paljon lisää. Haluisin sen ensimmäisen “Life Remote Control“-elokuvan.

I asked Fairey directly whether Mr. Brainwash was a hoax devised by Banksy. “I swear to god that’s not the case,” he said. “Banksy may not want me to say that but no, it’s not.”

9/10 Louis C.K.: Hilarious (2010)

In this unique and dynamic live concert experience, Louis C.K.’s exploration of life after 40 destroys politically correct images of modern life with thoughts we have all had… but would rarely admit to. Louis C.K.: Hilarious, premiered at The Sundance Film Festival as the first stand-up concert film presented. It has received rave reviews confirming why Louis C.K. is the most respected comedic voice of his generation. - Amazon.com

Louis C.K. on nousemassa minun kirjoissa yhdeksi parhaista koomikoista. Mahdollisesti suoraan Bill Hicksin alle. Hieno livetallennus, hauska mies.
