Spalding Gray: Terrors of Pleasure [1988]
The Pleasure Garden [1925]
The Pleasure Garden
Alfred Hitchcock
4/6
I have seen Hitchcock, obviously, but I haven’t seen it all. So why not get up to date? And why not do so chronologically, in a non-binging fashion?
I think silent films are absurd, and I’m really struggling with the format. That said, This is probably quite sexy for nineteen-snooze-and-twenty. And surprisingly dark. And a bit #metoo.
The Pleasure Garden isn’t commercially available as far as I could tell, so I watched it on the youtube.
12 O’Clock Boys [2013]
The Canadian Conspiracy [1985]
The Lion King 1½ [2004]
The Lion King 1½
Bradley Raymond
3.3/6
According to the internet, this film is based on Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead. Well, I’m not going to tag it as a make/remake, but if I did, it wouldn’t break the pattern methinks, no sir!
Police Academy 6: City Under Siege [1989]
The Fall of the Roman Empire [1964]
The Fall of the Roman Empire
Anthony Mann
1/3
How is it that everybody keep running around going on about what a fantastic actor Alec Guinness is?
I mean, check out this bit of fantastic acting over on the Youtube. Somebody fetch a couple of Oscars! Quickly!
