I saw Girly as 'Mumsy, Nanny, Sonny & Girly' and its an excellent, twisted movie..Very under rated.

The nightmare/dream sequences in the film are actually quite terrifying.

I don't think Birch does a horrible job of acting in the movie, although I've heard otherwise from other people.

It's just a very nice, creepy film. Some of the images are intense.

It was dark, bleak, and ultimately unhappy, which is how I felt at the end of it. I don't think it was a bad movie, in fact, it was probably a good movie (good acting, great production value, etc.), it just didn't really do anything for me except make me cranky. The boyfriend liked it, and I guess I can see why other people do too, but I just wasn't in the mood.

Have you seen it? Your thoughts?

Really looking forward to seeing this, based on J's rec - It's on Instant!!

Ho-lee cow.
This is one of the craziest film experiences I've had in some time. A fairly tongue-in-cheek allegory of extremes in Franco's Spain, it's told through the story of a twisted love triangle between a sad clown, a happy clown, and a beautiful trapeze artist that is at once completely absorbing, engrossing. The film just flies by.
It reminds me a bit of The Cook, The Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover, too, in that it represents these extremes with its production. In the real sense of the word, this film completely absurd. Every frame is loaded with color and movement, the darkest humor, and (sometimes goofy) extravagant violence. It is that rare, spot-on blend of eye-rolling pulp and art-house spectacle. And it's held all together with a clear sincerity. The ideas and inspirations behind the film are strong. Performances are great, the cinematography is a marvel. Even without its commentary, The Last Circus is an unbelievable work.
However, it does suffer at times from some conspicuous CGI, but for me at least, it was easy to forgive.
Certainly recommended for Chrono, Elvis, Ferox, V, Roshiq (although you've probably already seen it), and anyone with an adventuresome cinematic spirit.

Ah, yeah. It wasn't too high on my want-to-see list, anyway. I still haven't watched it, and I'll likely put it even further back on my queue.

Haha I watched that movie every day for about a year when I was 9 or 10.

Pretty sure I could quote it word for word :D

If you're into Eurocrime, Netflix has The Boss (Henry Silva at his homicidal best!), Live Like A Cop, Die Like A Man, and Kidnap up atm.

Elvis_Christ 12-09-2011 02:27 PM

I need to watch more Eurocrime stuff. Saw Revolver awhile back and enjoyed it. Might go have a binge on it over the holidays. Henry Silva always tears it up as a villain been a big fan since I saw him in Code Of Silence.
