Sinister: blair witch/eyes wide

[Iangstl at xxx.com]

SinListers,

I'd have to disagree completely with the Eyes Wide Shut review. After 
watching almost his whole catalogue last week, I would have to say this is 
one of Kubrick's best. Primary colors have not been used so well since 
Goddard's Weekend. The suspense builds slow and the story is more one of 
infidelity than sexual obsession. I liked the music; it added flavor. If you 
like Kubrick, you will see many scenic views that can only be called 
Kubrickian. I can't recall which critic said it, but it was said that if you 
expect to see a movie that will require a cold shower after, forget it, the 
movie is a cold shower. Kubrick was always about the possibilities beyond our 
actions. He didn't fail me here. European viewers will also have the 
opportunity to see it without the flawed digital editing required by the 
stodgy MPAA. His decision to obscure the sex scenes does play nicely into the 
concept of lust unfulfilled. I just want an unedited version, a bottle of 
scotch, and the time to dissolve with this master's final piece. 

Summer of Sam was a good watch but left me with not much to contemplate. 
Southpark makes me laugh still. 

Tigermilk is as sweet as I'd expected. It hasn't left my cd player once. The 
rough of Tom Waits and the tumble of B&S; what more could a girl want?
