Suspense...

[fahim113]

One of the most criminally under rated films of the 90s.

[spershall]

This film is a masterpiece and Hal Hartley is a genius.

@pmprcv Good post. My only criticism is that you've confused spelling/punctuation with grammar. Grammar is the formalized set of rules that govern speech/writing (phrases, sentences, syntax, phonetics, etc.). Ever study a foreign language? Learning how to spell and repeat isolated words is fairly simple. The difficult part is mastering the rules of grammar and style. Many native English speakers have only an elementary understanding of grammar. Henry is teaching rules of grammar, not spelling

@caramelizeme You see, there are different kinds of "seen". You have "seen", the past form of the verb to see, which is what you meant. "I've seen a dumbass on Youtube". Then there's "sin", a noun meaning "atrocity". "Your comment is a sin". You also have "scene", meaning "a part of a movie". "This is the greatest scene ever". So yeah, go get grammar lessons before going to Youtube messing all kinds of "seen", "scene" and whatnot.

If ever there was an actor born to play Charles Bukowski, it's him.
