Haha. That's learned ya! Good story and true enough. I'm (still) a massive Dylan fan, even though he's clearly flawed like everyone else. When he was at his best he was peerless and he had that sequence from Highway 61 through to about Street Legal where he was operating on another level. "A Complete Unknown" is good, just not outstanding although the two leads (playing Dylan and Joan Baez) are excellent. If they had to sing all their parts too it's even more impressive, particularly in the case of Baez. I thought "Substance" was ok but I'm not that big on "Body Horror" and as I said above, it seemed to repeat the same points and could have done with about 15 minutes shaving off. I think they wanted to play with all the special effects a bit longer. The obvious id-pol stances probably gave it a lot of buzz with critics but it got pretty much stiffed at awards. "Seed..." was brilliant I thought. I like Mohammad Rasoulof a lot having seen a few of his others; "Manuscripts Don't Burn" is good (hard to track down but I can upload a copy if you need it) and "There is No Evil" which won tons of prizes is up there with "Seed..". |
