Really? Of course, maybe it's because we're like-minded, but I always thought CassavetesGodard was 90% smart-ass like I am.

Once you know that, the rest of the pieces just kind of fall into place on their own.

However, I do feel that he has less patience than I do. Come in and see me at the office Monday morning, CassavetesGodard, and we'll get that straightened out.

Nothing posted on a forum should be taken serious by no one. I just have fun. Why not? This way of communicating I still find stupid (texting, myfacebooktwitterspace, etc), but I am a bore and can't find anybody in the "real world" that likes films that I do, so I produce a character for me on a forum like this. Have fun.

I like to think of you as an early-to-mid-20's whipper-snapper who probably has issues with authority. Maybe, it stems from your father spanking you too much... maybe, it stems from not enough spankings from your father.

I picture you wearing sunglasses after dark. Maybe, I just have too many images of Lou Reed in my head. Anyway, that'll be $100.

I am not a sunglasses wearing person, but early 20s: yes. Religious: no (not a gang type of person). Political: no, but I can talk about it all day long. Dad: don't see him. Cassavetes adopting me through film: priceless.

I just finished watching "M." I had never seen the movie before. I enjoyed it. Criterion did a fabulous job. Well worth the money.

Just completed Dillinger Is Dead. It was my first time seeing it. Extremely interesting movie. I like how everything take's place in less then 24 hours. In fact most of the sotry take's place during most of a single night. The story of a man dreaming of a different life. I tought it was interesting on how he was cleaning the gun while preparing himself a gourmet meal

I sort of found the home movie waching sequence a bit long and I was kind of wishing that it would just move along but I understand the need for that sequence to be there.

I am very glad to have seen this movie. I was surprise to see Annie Girardot. I guess there is no explanation as to what happen's to her character?

For those who bought the Blu-ray, how does it look? This was the DVD (a rental) and I found the image quite good and clear. I just love how well Criterion restore these movies before releasing them

I think it's Twitterrer but as far as I'm concerned it should be Tw*terrer...

It's Sergei Eisenstein.

Heh, never realized that. Heard of him I don't think I've ever seen any of his films. Though I probably will buy Battleship Potemkin fairly soon.

And now that I know who he is a better description would be he looks like a communist Frankenstein.

It's funny that Chad even asked since P@t states who his avatar is in his signature.

According to Amazon's pricing policy, everyone that preordered "Walkabout," should get the movie at the $22.99 price that Amazon recently offered.

Keep an eye on Amazon to make sure they honor the lowest price offered from the time you ordered, until the release date.
