And there were only one or two dozen people at the screening for Dali's <B>Destino</B>... why so much hype around Barney? I thought the commercial release of <B>DR9</B> in Paris wasn't a big hit.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, Dali +HarryTuttlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10721542203087536185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16398571.post-1157402486239408332006-09-04T22:41:00.000+02:002006-09-04T22:41:00.000+02:00Avoid Re-Cycle, one of the worse Asian films of th...Avoid Re-Cycle, one of the worse Asian films of the year!!! <BR/>Otherwise, Suicide Club (Jisatsu Circle) is the only Sono Sion's film I saw.

So it's always an opportunity to find rare films and discover new stuff. <BR/><BR/>This year I'm happy to see there more titles from the Cannes line-up (<B>Avida, Re-cycle</B>), and also the documentary <B>Matthew Barney : No Restraint</B> from the Berlinale,HarryTuttlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10721542203087536185noreply@blogger.com
