I'm trying something a little new, that will hopefully continue with future films. Feel free to come play; either in the comments or on twitter using the tag #filmicnotions
Basically they are short thoughts on films, not reviewing/criticising them, rather trying to capture a little of their nature... hopefully after these 10 you'll get the drift.
Miller's Crossing: A coward weeping in the woods evokes the pity of an Irishman; he was reminded of his hat.
Barton Fink: You think your life's tough? I'm in pictures now.
Fargo: This isn't what they were thinking when they coined the phrase: "in the family way."
The Big Lebowski: Everyone wants to be an individual; this individual's name is The Dude.
O Brother, Where Art Thou?: Nothing distracts from the task at hand quite like music.
No Country for Old Men: A conscience is one hell of a liability.
Burn After Reading: As we lay our heads on the pillow; exhausted from hijinks and hullabaloo, we ask ourselves: was anyone ever shot over less?
A Serious Man: Larry: "Why G-d? I'm not an evil man." G-d: "Larry, don't sweat the small stuff; the worst is yet to come."
True Grit: Take me back to a time when the men were true, the women had grit, and the horses weren't unionised.
Inside Llewyn Davis: Sing, fuck up, rinse, repeat. The only advice worth taking is impossible to follow.
Hope that was enjoyable, the invitation is open, add you own!
