still seeing lots of films-
Ex Machina- eh, I was unimpressed. Liked it better than Interstellar, but that isn't saying much.
Clouds of Sils Maria - I really liked this, but I am quite smitten w Juliette Binoche and so is this film, so no real surprise that I liked it.
Melbourne Cinematheque showed a series a films by the director Mathias Pineiro and I tried hard to like them, but they didn't really work - it was mostly Shakespeare plays being rehearsed by the same group of people and it did remind me of Rivette, but it just didn't come together for me.
I saw Salt of the Earth again so that Charles could see it and I really loved it, though it is depressing, it ends on a hopeful note.
Antarctica- A Year on the Ice - this was great, I will never spend a year there and this film really showed what it is like, especially the winter, which very few people get to experience.
Expedition to the End of the World - a film from Denmark, a very engaging film, from different perspectives you get to see men explore the arctic
Boyhood - I enjoyed it so much I went and saw it again while it was still showing on a big screen
Tonight I will see Do The Right Thing and The Great Flood. Melbourne is so fantastic for films. I see the same people over and over at the films I like, so I have developed a couple of film friendships that I really enjoy. I think I could see films I really want to see 7 days a week. Charles will go see the new Avengers film without me, I think. I wanted to see The Tribe, but it came and went so fast, that I missed it.
I'm already signed up to see all the films I can possibly see at the Melbourne Intl Film Fest in July/Aug.
