The Last Ten Films I've Seen- Lots of Dark Stuff
We need to put this relatively quickly, so it can get to our loyal readers in Pyonyang, North Korea. Of course, that is a joke. But, for those of you who haven't seen David Fincher's 1999 cinematic adaptation of the Chuck Palahniuk novel "Fight Club," soap figures prominently in the film.
Here is the list:
1. "Contagion" 2011. dir- Steven Soderbergh. With Matt Damon and Kate Winslet
2. "Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge" 1991. dir- David DeCateau...yes, it is awful!
3. "Cold Weather" 2010. dir-Aaron Katz
4. "Ball of Fire" 1941. dir- Howard Hawks. With Barbara Stanwyck and Gary Cooper
5. "Seven Men from Now." 1956. dir- Budd Boetticher. With Randolph Scott and Lee Marvin.
6. "Straw Dogs" 2011. dir-Rod Lurie. With Kate Bosworth. (the 1971 original directed by Sam Peckinpah is much better)
7. "Voices in Wartime." doc. 2005. dir-Rick King
8. "Sarah's Key." 2010. dir- Gilles Paquet-Brenner. With Kristin Scott Thomas.
9. "Fight Club." 1999. dir- David Fincher. With Ed Norton and Brad Pitt.
