eumeliaStaying up late to watch obscure movies which for some reason are only broadcast between one in the morning and four in the morning.
I love my Night Owlish ways.
The movie in question is Fur, by the way. Pretty "mundane" people and self-identifying "Freaks" who are also very pretty.
The last time this happened was a few months ago with A Scanner Darkly, hasn't been on teevee since, as far as I'm aware.
As an aside; it's interesting to note that both these films feature Robert Downey Junior, no. Also Zodiac, in which RDJ also appears, is on teevee this weekend and I'll be watching that as well. Yeah, try and stop my movie buffness.
Yes, RDJ rocks, rah rah rah - and yes he so spouts racist anti-intellectual nonsense... but his performances do really rock.
End of aside.
I also remember the first time I found an obscure movie in the middle on the night. It was about five years ago and I had insomnia and I was channel surfing like a zombie when suddenly I came across an Alan Rickman movie I didn't know existed - the horribleness of it!
The movie is Judas Kiss and it is so very bizarre, Alan Rickman's and Emma Thompson's accents alone are distracting from the plot - of which I have no recollection, by the way, but the grainy looking picture and the it being set in New Orleans, the one thing I remember, made it a funny movie experience as well.
As would watching a movie of that kind between two in the morning and four in the morning, I suppose.
Anyway, looking forward to the totally made up biopic of Diane Arbus and watching the prettiness of Steven Shainberg's directing. He's the one that did Secretary, probably the best love story ever.
Yes, even better than The French Lieutenant's Woman, which having seen it recently... is not that good as a story.
