Germany deconstructed
+ Fassbinder's remarkable women: the BRD Trilogy.
+ Maria Braun: "I don't know a thing about business, but I do know what German women want..."

Apocalypse Now - The Complete Dossier (Two-Disc Special Collector's Edition)
Apocalyspe Now
Paramount, 2006
Stick With the Original Version.
+ The Horror...
+ If God and Wagner had teamed up to make a film about Vietnam, starring a 400-pound bald Marlon Brando, this is what you'd get

I'm starting to get weary when I hear the term ...

Being There
Peters Sellers, Shirley MacLaine
Warner Home Video, 2001
Subtle and Sublime Masterpiece!
+ Been There, Seen That
It's been nearly three decades (ugh!) since I saw this film in the theater and always remembered it as being one of the great movies of all time - intelligent, witty, satirical, and thought-provoking. Sadly, I hadn't had a chance (no pun intended) to see it since and, while browsing for something ...
