Dirty Recommendations

[GreenPea]

I recommend Z One if the best political movies I've seen in a few years. I loved it.

For a nice not-too-difficult-to-understand action movie, watch Boondock Saints, nice how you first see ''after the murder scenes" and AFTER that you can see how it happened.

Requiem For A Dream, watch a guy, his mother (or grandmother?), his girlfriend and a friend of his (one of the Wayans who also stars in Don't Be A Menace) going way too far into the world of drugs. I don't watch many films but this one REALLY REALLY grabbed me. When the movie is over I keep a depressed feeling, very weird that a movie can do that to me. Very impressive! A must see.

I bought this dvd a few years ago, but have never finished it. Had to turn it off after 30 minutes because I thought it was too damn weird. Maybe I should give it another chance....
The thing that initially caught my eye was the Tarantino reference....

I'll second Me and You and Everyone We Know.

I think the second story is better (at least more straight forward; maybe not better) than the first; so you really should go back and take a look.

I second Requeim for a Dream!

and add:

>>DALLAS 362<<

It stars Scott Caan and Shawn Hatosy and it's a fucking blast. Very real conversations (like Tarrantino minus the nerdy hollywood stuff) and genuine laughs throughout. The supporting actors (Jeff Goldblum for one ) are all kick ass and wonderfully weird.

Check it out you'll be glad.

fear and loathing in las vegas

probaley the best dope movie with "stars" in

[Animal Boything]

I'd like to think that most dirts have already seen Fear and Loathing, but I guess it's worth mentioning just in case someone hasn't, because it is one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of human expression. And also funny.

The Last life in Universe... such a great weird film.
