More films
A couple of movies I've seen since last night:
- Chuck and Buck. I read the description on the back of a movie case for this film when it came out in 2000, and have wanted to see it ever since. A digitally film where the two leads are (or were, at the time) screenwriters and not actors, it's an unsettling, creepy, sometimes symapthetic story of childhood obsession and diverging lives. Okay, it's quite creepy. But well done.
- Battle Royale. I saw the first half of this cult Japanese hit a few years back, and finally saw it in total this weekend. In a near-future where disrespect and violence from children is out of control, the authorities come up with a unique (and action-packed) method of thinning the pack. Violent and cool. I'll watch anything with Beat Takeshi.
