Some more SCREENING
I welcome you to embark on an emotional journey via WV's specially selected movies. They are sure to tickle your funny bone, draw your reserved tears, touch your compassionate soul, provoke your righteous... whatever.
Well, I've been advocating mindless, violent, horny shows (ok, just mindless, horny shows) and I want to have a change.
Here are some movies that will fascinate and amaze you, leave you emotionally exhausted, enrich or even enlighten you, and most of all, make you fucking depressed (pardon my french).. okae, there are some which are quite heart-warming, though I've always thought of them as being too glossy, sacharrin-coated and fake...
I'm planning to screen on Thursday evening? 4-5 liddat, can haf dinner at my house...
So here are the choices:
 Bree, a born-again Christian and a pre-operative, male-to-female transsexual, holds down two jobs and saves every penny so that she can pay for one last operation that will make her a woman at last. One day, however, she receives a strange phone call. It appears that on the other side is Toby, apparently her son, who must be the product of a somewhat clumsy sexual encounter years ago when she was a man. He stays in New York, incarcerated. Bree flies from Los Angeles to New York in order to get the boy out of jail. At first she is reluctant to do so, but her therapist convinces her to face up to her past. The boy is handed over to her without a word of explanation and Toby believes the woman to be some Christian missionary determined to convert reprobates to Jesus; Bree sees no reason to clear up the misunderstanding. However, she finds out that the boy just wants to escape from her and hitchhike to Los Angeles. She persuades him to accompany her back to the west coast--secretly planning to leave him at his stepfather's along the way. Toby is happy to take her up on her offer. ****Personnally recommend this, looks very interesting, and got good reviews from average movie-goers like you and me, ie. not critics
 (Ok, the poster can be quite misleading, but well, I guess sometimes real life can be quite sleazy too) An ensemble cast telling 10 stories with intertwining characters. One story is about a father and son who are dating the same woman . Another features a woman who long ago gave her baby up for adoption but is now being blackmailed by a documentary filmmaker who claims to know the now-grown child's whereabouts. ****I personally don't really wanna watch this, cause according to reviews the dialogue can be quite confusing, and I still can't find the subtitles to accompany it.. and I think this is one of those films which will leave you more cynical, saddened and depressed about real life...
 Antonio Salieri believes that Mozart's music is divine. He wishes he was himself as good a musician as Mozart so that he can praise the Lord through composing. But he can't understand why God favored Mozart, such a vulgar creature, to be his instrument. Salieri's envy has made him an enemy of God whose greatness was evident in Mozart. He is set to take revenge. ****I think it's a semi-musical. I just realized dis shit got 7 oscars!!! WTF!!
 The UK is about to switch its currency from Pounds to Euros, giving a gang a chance to rob the poorly-secured train loaded with money on its way to incineration. But, during the robbery, one of the big bags falls literally from the sky on Damian's playhouse, a 5-year old given to talking to saints. The boy then starts seeing what the world and the people around him are made of. A very rare film in which ethics, being human and the soul all come to the forefront on this masterly-written, directed and acted, very fun, film. Don't miss this opportunity to your train to heaven! ****Very very nice story! Though I feel that it's quite glossed over, I personally don't recommend dis one osso, cuz i watched be4.. haha.
 Or maybe you just don't want to explore your sensitive side... This one is one of the better action movies though, won some sundance film festival awards...
