Made in U.S.A. (1966)



Deja Vu sequences and colorscope. Anna Karina the killer. detective. lover. ever charming. aaand Jean-Pierre Leaud.

The Joy of Life (2005)



self-discovering narrative on Jenni Olson's "butch" lifestyle
including...
Lawrence Ferlinghetto
Basically if you see that cover, only get it as a reference film. For if you were perhaps going to make a better film using some of the frames from this one. or locations.

Into Great Silence (2005)



Practically a silent film by Philip Gröning
Why have a woman when you get fucked by god every single night.

Wings Of Desire (1987)



"Der Himmel über Berlin"
Something for everyone film by Wim Wenders
particularily inspired by Rilke's poetry and West Berlin 1980
The angel, Damiel, and Colombo who is apparently a fellow angel, enslaved in observation fall in love with a circus trapeze artist and then the quest to become human...
The city, the concepts, existence, reality, like I said something for everyone..

Dead Poets Society (1989)


Knox Overstreet
looks a lot like Cambell

Its like a charming cuter cambell that you could just never, never imagine ever happening.
but I like this film aside from that
Carpe Diem.

Harmony Korine


Werner Herzog appearances...


Mister Lonely (2007)
"In Paris, a young American who works as a Michael Jackson lookalike meets Marilyn Monroe, who invites him to her commune in Scotland, where she lives with Charlie Chaplin and her daughter, Shirley Temple."
Honestly, whatever.
But Werner Herzog plays Father Umbrillo, perfect- as well as the flying nun scene..


Julien Donkey-Boy (1999)
I like Chloe Sevigny
&Creepy face Julien- this movie comes off disturbing. I like how Korine films in desolate places with desolate people. Werner Herzog is the father-deranged and amazing, again.

Kicking and Screaming (1995)


"I've often said, and I'm paraphrasing myself here,
'If Plato is a fine red wine, then Aristotle is often a dry martini..."

For one Parker Posey,
two I think this is classic college flick, maybe more so for Vassar students but
always relevant.
and Eric Stoltz as the bartender, chet.
Most likely Baumbach's own identity crisis in College, on film.
such a quotable movie.
the deja vu like entrancement I usually watch this film in.
"you guys all talk alike..."
