What's The Latest Film You Have Seen?

Possession (1981)

Holy moly. Such fascinating character dynamics, body language, and camerawork (which I can see directly influenced Tarantino's diner scene from Reservoir Dogs), among other things. I was totally immersed throughout the whole thing (apart from when I paused to make a shot from the movie into my avatar) and was totally blown away. Thanks for the rec Exoman.

The part with Pac-man was brilliant, I haven't laughed that hard in a theater in so damn long.

Any of you peeps seen this?

Based on the novel by José Saramago. Movie did an excellent job of capturing the overall tone and vibe of the book. But it's such a long and slow emotional gut punch that I never want to see it again.

Cube is pretty damn great. As for the numerous sequels. Well you know how that goes.

Bob! I need to talk about Covenant. Where you at?
