Waiting for your part four of the article.
Also, is it just me ,but i am a big Sergio Leone fan and ,eventhough his later works in the once upon a time trilogy(once upon a time in the west, giu la testa and once upon a time in america) are far more serious and analytical than his first dollars trilogy( which are a blend of good story telling, cinematography, music and good escapist action), i am starting to recognize alot of bizare and almost parodical religious imagery in his earlier films. I am not excatly sure if those really convey any meaning or purpose to the establishment of the film or if i am just overthinking stuff.

Folks it's been a long time since i posted a video, but there is more on the way. For those of you interested in the more political stuff there's a new in-depth article that's just been posted on my site.

Fight Club, more than likely. 12 monkeys - I'll need to take another look at it.

Re: Dead Ringers. Hadn't thought of doing that one. It's a great film and Cronenberg does come up with some nifty narrative tricks.

Re: new labour new fascism new racism. That doesn't surprise me. They really scrape the barrel for election campaign material - anything to avoid announcing their actual agendas. Glad you like the chapters posted so far, but the forthcoming chapter 4 is gonna be a killer and may cause a vicious backlash against me, but what the hell - the stuff needs to be said.

12 monkeys contains a subliminal detail every 12 seconds or so, a little too saturated for a review, i think.
I was reading Rob's review of the Shining and was reminded of Dead Ringers which has identical twins played by Jeremy Irons. They are seperate personalities but they don't have any distinguishing features. What if the viewer is mislead in determining their identities in certain scenes? This could have significant impact on how the movie is interpreted. I wouldn't be surprised; Rob's pipeline has Videodrome as an pending review and that was also directed by Cronenberg.

Are you gonna do 12 monkeys and FIght Club?

I just read you recent article titled new labour new facism and new racism ,and i have to add that it was really well made. You will be surprised ,but the picture that you selected on the beginning of the new labour tactics and motives is ridiculously reminicent of a scene in Sergio leone's 1972 movie Giu la testa, where they first arrive to mesa verde and Rod Steiger, the lead character, is witnessing a firing squad in progress through an opening on a poster of the governor.

Rob, have you considered doing one of these for American Psycho?

Hello Rob!
Have you done an analysis of 9 and one half weeks, it would be so nice to hear your point of view.
Thanks!!
