The Damned United
Starting today off with Damn United: A look at Brian Clough’s 44-day reign as the coach of Leeds United.
Correction: it’s called Damned United. It was good, a nice enjoyable English flick. ***
What a cast! Michael Sheen, Jim Broadbent, Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney and more.
Micmacs
Up next, the new Jean-Pierre Jeunet film. Excited as I love all his films. Delicatessen, City of Lost Children, Amelie and more.
A much deserved standing ovation for Jean Pierre Jeunet.
Q&A with Jean Pierre Jeunet.
Jeunet’s ‘Micmacs et Tire a Largot’ was fantastic, as expected. Whimsical, funny, inventive and great looking, simply awesome.
Also, I’m calling it as the winner of People’s Choice. Crowd LOVED it! I called Slumdog Millionaire last year and it won.
Vengeance
Next up is Johnnie To’s ‘Vengeance’. One of my fave directors…
‘Vengeance’ was a tad disappointing. Good action, stylish, good cast but story lacking. Many, many better Johnnie To films. ***
