Miscellaneous Movie Musings

We saw Destino at LACMA, it was totally unexpected and truely a delight. I think that piece of animation illuminated Dali's work in ways that no art history tract ever could. Beautiful.

It also created for me a desire for Disney to capitalize on it and create a Surrealist Princess. After all we need something for when the Pirate thing dies down - Adventures in Negative Space anyone?

What a fantastic idea. It's too bad Bunuel isn't around, but maybe John Lasseter could get Jodoroswky to sign on.

I've probably said this a ton but if I wake up the next day still thinking about a movie I saw the night before, then for me it's a good movie.
Volver.

Then again, I will sit through a movie that is so bad that I will also wake up the next day still striking my forehead with a two by four.
