You just compared LAST CHANCE HARVEY to Cassavetes?

No, I didn’t. Just said it was a smaller, more intimate movie.

I could teach you a lot about the idea that some movies suck and other rock. The different between films with real emotions and the one with the type that goes for the obvious emotional buttons to get money.

See, here we have the problem. All you movie cynics out there, all you fuckers with your “been there, done that” - attitude - you piss me the fuck off. Movies used to be able to have great melodrama and used to be able to have dramatic music to support dramatic action on screen, until you all started rolling your eyes and shouting “cliche!” at everything. Oversaturated bastards, all of you. When we watch a movie like Watchmen, we should be like Charle in Willie Wonka’s Chocolate Factory, not like the worlds toughest film critic. That’s what’s wrong with audiences today.

Rachel Getting Married is more an example of the new wave of Cassavetes-esque films than Last Chance Harvey…

It’s funny you mention Rachel Getting Married because I walked into a sneak preview of it, and walked out again after 10 minutes because of everyhing about the movie pissed me off, worst of all the shakey cam. And I was not into the mood for a movie like that on that day.
