Whoa, Morbs, you should get on that! Surprised you haven't seen Inextinguishable Fire.
It wasn't really a retro, more like a quasi seminar thing -- http://www.16beavergroup.org/farocki/ . Really disappointed I couldn't make it.

yes. packed with snow casualties. I was even gonna stay for Eisenstein but wanted to get the curb-jumping over with.

Wasn't too crowded-or too snowy at 8- although I did have to sit in front of a bickering old couple.

Fritz Land would be a grim theme park.

no idea yet. perhaps not.

I checked and it seems you can't buy the tix online.

First time I ever saw Repulsion was a 3 a.m. showing on TV about 30 years ago. Creeped me out tremendously.

Manuel DeLanda at Anthology all weekend. Bummed I can't make it. Raw Nerves really blew me away -- it's concerns are familiar, but I've never seen anything else quite like it -- and these are hard to see. Good weekend at MMI too: Great batch of Resnais' and the David Perlov diaries.

I saw Muriel last week--it was quite boring. Going to try to catch Providence with Dirk Bogarde.

Not this weekend: don't worry. In a couple of weeks.

Which Resnais should I see this weekend? Is "I Want to Go Home" good? Other choices: Je T'aime, Je T'aime (seen it), Stavisky, Far From Vietnam, Not on the Lips.

I didnt care for Not on the Lips, otherwise unable to help.

off topic, but i'm working on the assumption that this thread is a honey-trap for film fans on ILX:
which raul ruiz should i see, first, availability pending? i think i have access to three crowns of a sailor. fwiw, i'd maybe be inflicting it on some others, too, so something vaguely enjoyable or interesting would be a plus.
it'd be nice to have a general film thread for general film geeking right now. i'm all full of enthusiasm for archipelago, & need to find counsel on where to go from here with eugene green films; don't know that there's a rolling arthouse thread, or whether one's worthwhile.

I'll let snobbier film snobs answer the above. Just wanted to say that over the weekend I saw "Mon Oncle d'Amerique" -- super amusing.

Don't think Three Crowns is really the one to see, sorry. Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting or On Top of the Whale maybe.
