Mr. Smith Goes To Washington


Good premise and acting by James Stewart, but pretty sappy in some parts.  A lot of the same cast as It's A Wonderful Life, as Frank Capra directed both.

Watched this old Brit Horror from the 70's last night. Has aged pretty badly but was an ok way to spend 90 minutes with a few beers.

I just watched The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters


Very interesting documentary regarding competitive arcade gaming.  Two guys compete for the record score in Donkey Kong, but only one comes across as likeable.

Watched this oldie with an star cast last night. Fairly good film with you like who-dunits with little action. 3.5/5

^ it's an amazing film, although I can't say I enjoy it. The scene with the cop being tortured is uhhhh... gut-wrenching.

Form and content-wise all his movies are impeccable - interesting plots, twists and metaphysical themes are great and executed perfectly. However, the problem I have with his movies is that they lack in artistic values. They're like beautifully designed, sophisticated products, not works of art. Nolan is the king of craftsmen.

I think a good example to support my argument would be "The Skin I live in" by Almodovar. It's a movie based on a plot so twisted that even Nolan wouldn't be ashamed of it. The difference between the two directors is that Almodovar has created not only an intriguing but also a deeply moving film. 

So, to the point - I think "Prestige" is the most artistic movie by Nolan and that's why it's my favourite I know that no one really asked me to explain... but well, I did.
