    Crawdaddy's "Random Thoughts" about Home Video, Film & TV

    Yes, I agree and when you say organic I think of that idea again that those filmmakers from 1941 to 1958 were not creating these pictures to ape a style but rather to essentially tap into the anxiety of the time. Something about the filmmakers of the 1970s was they were often making movies that...

    Crawdaddy's "Random Thoughts" about Home Video, Film & TV

    Yes, in terms of using the term "noir" I am in Robert's camp of having a very open view. In terms of that period that Eddie is talking about I certainly recognize that's the period where that style was born and then it was given a name after the fact. I just sort of find people are much more...

    Yes, I have read and seen Tom Ford talk about that opening scene and...well...I buy what he says it is supposed to represent in terms of Susan and why she created it. I don't really buy what he says about it personally. I can say I am with you, Robert, in that I did not really enjoy watching it...
