You know, I was scared because I had been wanting to see the film for so many years, and because I had heard so much about it's legacy- and it still knocked me flat. Definately glad I blind-bought it, too, because I'll be re-watching and sharing this one many times over.

I'm just starting to get into his work - this is only the second I've seen, after Nights of Cabiria. Got to check out more...based on these ones, he seems like the kind of director I could really get into.

Yes! Le Sang des bêtes, or Blood of the Beasts.
It's pretty horrifying and incredible.

The Third Part of the Night

the third time I tried to watch this movie, finally was able to watch it without interruption.

I admit that I haven't been watching too many movies lately, but this is the best movie I've seen in awhile. great story, great performances, I found myself completely submersed. it's hard to believe it is the first film andrej zulawski ever made, might not be as refined as possession or l'important c'est d'aimer, but it's extremely good.

thanks fortunato, I loved it and I can't wait to watch it again. arrg I have to wait until monday actually :mad:

Murder! (1930)

One of Hitchcock's early works...it's quite good, but you can tell he still hadn't quite mastered his craft at this point. The ending is stunning and there are lots of unique and well played ideas throughout - I especially liked the reuse of Hamlet's famous ruse, and Sir John's logic for believing Baring to be innocent - but the action drags horribly in places, the editing was very shoddy, and some of the actors were depressingly dull.

I liked it overall, but it's not one of Hitch's best. Worth a watch though.

So glad you liked it. I've been wanting to watch it again lately myself.
