Charlie don't surf!
Ewww yuck, lots of little short posts all day. Here's the final one.
After Stroszek I watched a couple scenes from Heat. I was tempted to watch it all the way through but it's three hours long and I was a little worn out. I just watched the action packed parts because I was in that sort of mood after watching all the BMW stuff.
Oddly enough, my favorite of the BMW ones is the one with no action in it, but then again it's not that odd since it was directed by Wong Kar Wai. He's one of the most incredible filmmakers on earth and if you haven't seen any of his work SEE CHUNGKING EXPRESS OR IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE NOW!
After Heat I put in Apocalypse Now and kinda watched it all the way through. I was doing stuff on my computer so I was a little distracted but I was attentive for all the great parts. I used to not think too highly of the film but the more I watch it the more amazed I am by it. In my opinion it's better than The Godfather.
Tomorrow, I'm meeting with Tada to go over his video project. I'm assistant director on it so I've got the most important job. I pretty much do all the work, he takes all the credit. The tables will turn next Tuesday though when it's my turn to direct and I can boss around my a.d.
I think for my project I'll be doing a Twin Peaksesque melodrama type thing with James and Kate as the stars. If you've heard my final project from my sound class last year: it's the two people in that.
Next weekend, Jimmy and I are planning on shooting our first feature together. It's going to be amazing, trust me. You all should be very excited because not only will it announce the arrival of two new great talents, but we're both expecting it to usher in a whole new era of filmmaking. You heard it here first.
I'm really hungry right now. I need to go to bed so that it'll go away.
Leonard is putting in new CDs to wake up to. I'm so excited. There's nothing like waking up to hardcore with your heart beating like you just had a really scary or hot dream...
