That's when you punch them. In fact, I can't even think of a better reason for punching someone. Or even better, do it with the DVD.

Speaking of the DVD, isn't it out of print? I wish they'd re-release it cause I never bought it.

Have you seen The Third Part of the Night? What else by Zulawski is good?

It's also a good point to make that Isabelle Adjani's performance in Possession is probably one of the best and craziest I've ever seen.

Ew, yeah. Subs for sure. No dubs.

I'd love to know what you think of Third Part of the Night.
l'important c'est d'aimer looks amazing. I think I might just buy it.

I'm not sure, I don't remember :( I searched "possession" and the oldest post is october 2006. I know I saw it before the "The Unsung, The Underapperciated & the Bizarre: the 'Other' HDC Top 100" thread was made.

someone on this forum definitely made me want to rent it, not sure if it was in a recommendation, a list, or just a brief mention.

with a collaboration with Sydney Pollack, Robert Town, Paul Schrader, and Robert Mitchum, how could you go wrong? My words cant really do this film justice because im terrible at reviews, but here it goes.

This is by far my favorite Yakuza film, even though its made by an american director. I feel it really explores japanese culture, the concepts of honor and respect, friendship, and promises kept. Its got a classy, neo-noir atmosphere though out - real cool and subtle between it's intense and excellently shot action scenes. a great plot, great direction, great acting and great writing, now one of my top ten favs, give this one a watch asap.

Queued. I'm sending back two movies tomorrow, so I should get it pretty soon.
And thanks.

I'd heard of this caguely before, but now you've really got me interested.
