Pride, Unprejudiced today
A heavy movie screening day before Memorial Day, so just this post: this week's Pride, Unprejudiced looks at "The best film to incorporate Leonardo since Hudson Hawk; the mood of The Proposition—"Blood is a central force, blood that binds, blinds, sluices, spatters, gutters, gathers and bakes in the sun that makes alkali of the earth"; a Korean movie with ads "larded with quotes from Ain’t It Cool News’ house torture-phile, Harry Knowles"; and the perfectionism of X-Men: The Last Stand's Brett Ratner: "Any other director, honestly, you do thirty takes, I'd be done, I'd be over, I'd be so lost. I'd be frustrated and probably wouldn't want to do it anymore. I'd just be, y'know, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do. But he's very specific."
