Bloody loved it didn't I!

It got rinsed at Cannes so I heard, but for me Aranofsky just proved he's still the best...well almost the best.

Anyone else like it?

        ever written
        
        rapscalion-jones @allisfulloflove | 13 Apr '07, 00:01 | X
        
        i've only really read 'The Invisibles'
        
        so that's obviously the best one ever.

        i like pictures
        
        allisfulloflove @rapscalion-jones | 13 Apr '07, 00:05 | X
I couldent decide whether it was amazing or utter shite

certainly outstanding visually... but it seemed to be the same song playing on repeat throughout the film, and the dialogue was a bit mushy.
But in terms of scope its fantastic.
I still prefer pi, though.

yes_ | 12 Apr '07, 23:53 | X
- really? i thought pi was...pretty good but
  
  well, Requiem is my fave film ever, probably because it was my fave book ever too mind you.
  
  but I really liked the repetative music, it kind of reached a satisfying crescendo at the end, and the mushy dialogue...kind of worked i thought!?
  
  but visually yeah, blimey!
  
  allisfulloflove @yes_ | 12 Apr '07, 23:55 | X
  - yeah
    
    the only evidence i could hear that the soundtrack was written by mogwai was the tiny bit of guitar at the end. Probably couldent hear it on non-surround sound anyway.
    
    yes_ @allisfulloflove | 12 Apr '07, 23:58 | X
    - mogwai?????
      
      wasn't it clint mansell and kronos quartet again?
      
      allisfulloflove @yes_ | 12 Apr '07, 23:59 | X
      - well yeah
        
        but mogwai wrote a bit for it I think

        yes_ @allisfulloflove | 13 Apr '07, 00:01 | X
        
        ohh! interesting, cool cheers
