------------- Metropolis (1927) This is only the second time I've seen this film- and it certainly will not be the last. The whole thing is a complete tour-de-force.

it's so visually stunning, and it features one of my favorite performances in cinema history- brigitte helm as the robot maria. ---------------------------------------------- powell and pressburger's black narcissus (1947) a pretty powerful look at a convent buried deep in the himalayas as they, along with the surrounding community, deal with heavy emotions and a bit of psychosis, all of which become mixed and increase, resulting in a climax that comes off over-the-top and even frightening. the film begins well and ends strongly, but the middle seems to sag a bit. definitely worth a watch, though.

The fact that she goes from playing timid, innocent preacher to barbaric, looney robot is just mind-blowing...easily the most versatility any actor/actress had show thus far in cinema. Her jerky, sporadic movements are exquisite.

Rambo (2008)
I read all these reviews from people saying it was great and mindless and just exciting fun so I went in knowing it wasn't going to win any awards but it would be amazingly gory and fun and boy did it deliver. I loved every minute of it and the deaths were just DISGUSTING and I loved every minute of it. 8.5/10

--------------------------------------------- au hasard balthazar (1966) comes off simple, but is truly very thick. touching story of the lives of a donkey and his first owner, and the parallels between them.
