Last Ten Films We've Seen- Cosmopolis Rules


 
 
 
Well, folks about 113 things went wrong as we were posting this; here are some notes on the images:
 
 
1. The dolphin for "The Day of the Dolphin"
 
2. The lizards from the Belgrade Zoo in Serbia are because Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi who is under house arrest in Iran develops a close relationship with a pet lizard since he can not legally leave is apartment.
 
3. The fringe preachers from Reidsville, NC, who may well be affilated with the radical Rev. Johnny Robertson from Martinsville, Va., which is close to Reidsville, are in refernece to "Elmer Gantry," a film about a revival ministers with a questionable background. This image comes from my friend's Chris Knight's blog (see link below)...
