Andrew Dominik - Killing Them Softly


Recommended Posts

"Most feature filmmakers shy away from acknowledging overt political messages in their films, hiding behind platitudes such as "I just wanted to tell the best story" or "I'd rather let others be the ones to interpret my work."

 

"Not 'Killing Them Softly' writer-director Andrew Dominik and his star-producer, Brad Pitt, who offered with frankness -- both in the film and at a Cannes Film Festival news conference that followed on Tuesday morning -- their unfavorable opinion of capitalism as recently practiced in the U.S."

 

"Everything you need to know about Dominik's worldview came with a moment in the news conference in which the Australian said that in his experience America is largely about making money, and that that went double for Hollywood."

My only question is if he'll be able to actually pull a performance out of Brad Pitt? I was surprised at how not shitty Pitt was in The Assassination of Jesse James.

you made me click a link to find out if this was a documentary or not. For shame.

After this I listened to geogaddi and I didn't like it, I was quite vomitting at some tracks, I realized they were too crazy for my ears, they took too much acid to play music I stupidly thought (cliché of psyché music) But I knew this album was a kind of big forest where I just wasn't able to go inside.

I was in US tjis summer, and eat in KFC. FUCK That's the worst thing i've ever eaten. The flesh simply doesn't cleave to the bones. Battery ferming. And then, foie gras is banned from NY state, because it's considered as ill-treat. IT'S NOT. KFC is tourist ill-treat. YOU POISONERS! Two hours after being to KFC, i stopped in a amsih little town barf all that KFC shit out. Nice work!

 

So i hope this woman is not like kfc chicken, otherwise she'll be pulled to pieces.

right. we'll just need to see. the clips look shaky, obviously hard to get the sense of it all from little clips but part of me is intrigued, the other, unsure. i was highly entertained by 'chopper' and 'the 'assassination of jesse james' held me at attention with my nails bitting in the ending. maybe this will drag ray liotta out of the trench he's been sogging in?
