I like it though, gets rid of unwanted company. Geraldine Page's performance is incredible in that movie despite the fact that it's so obviously derivative of Bergman and not a great movie overall. She was nominated for best actress and should have won it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, good lunch-time reading. This is my favorite part, QFT: “The Petty shows seemed particularly pointless; why did Bob Dylan need a stringy-haired sycophant onstage with him?” i like Bergman and I like Interiors and Self Portrait is enjoyed when i'm so tired from work and stuff that all i can do is lay there with it playing loud for the whole thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row_33 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) the library has Interiors for free online watch, just went through the first 20 minutes, and found about 15 chuckles as i take the view he had to have intended this to be a very dry comedy. it's ignored in all mainstream categories, i think i came across it on John Water's favourite cinematic tortures of fans, i recall other gems of: 1) Marguerite Duras' The Truck with Depardieu which basically is a read of a script slowly and footage of a truck driving along 2) the unbelievably indulgent Bresson's Lancelot du Lac 3) most anything by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Why Does Herr R Run Amok is a good one to start with and the horrible Godard "La Chinoise" series under the ummmmmmmmmmm... Dziga Vertov Group and their Maoist phase... so, if you feel compelled as i have... Edited May 29, 2019 by row_33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Bloody Valentine "Loveless" is my go-to album when I just have to decompress and zone everything out. Works like a charm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirit, Savoy Brown, Moodys, Tull at least 4 times, really think it was 4 though. Never saw the Stones either lol. Spirit! I would have liked to have seen them. Guess it is not happening now.
