Movie Club 2008

January 4, 2008 8 comments

Please sign up to host a month. I figure Feb-April could be Oscar films-

Feb 9th: @ Aaron Schuh’s: Across The Universe
March 8th: @ Tyler’s: Movies TBD
April 12th: Hosted by Chris-

  • Location: TBD
  • Movies: No Country for Old Men  for homework and Blood Simple or Miller’s Crossing together.  I personally have not seen either.  It sounds like Blood Simple would be a closer comparison in terms of story and style but Tyler says it has already been viewed as a part of Movie Club so I am open to watching Miller’s crossing together, please vote in the comments field if you have strong feelings either way.
  • I would like to see the progression in the Coen brothers. Two similar films made roughly 20 years apart, from what I hear they have perfected their craft in No Country.

May 9th/May 22nd: Matt Barber : I’d like to watch all three Indiana Jones movies and then head to the theater opening night for kingdom of the crystal skull.
June 14th:

3:10 to Yuma Question

November 9, 2007 no comments

Carey and I just saw 3:10 to Yuma last night and we both enjoyed it. Aaron, you worked on a very nice piece of art. One thing in the film that didn’t work for me, or rather confused me — I’m not sure if it worked or not — was when Ben stops choking Dan as Dan tries to get Ben to the train. Why do you guys think Ben stopped and agreed to go along with Dan? It seemed to be a strange move for Ben’s character.

Also, the film reminded me of The Departed in how it seemed to say that justice was not brought about through right structures, but through just people.
