I am Vince Barley. No relation to Ken Barley, the head of the plasterer department on Star Wars: Episode I, the Phantom Menace.

My favorite movie is 2001: A Space Odyssey, because it's a deep, philosophical search for Man's meaning, and it has cool special effects. It is the movie that my signature, which you will see on my posts, comes from: "It can only be attributable to human error."

My favorite director ever is Stanley Kubrick. Yes, the very same Stanley Kubrick who directed my favorite movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey. He also directed the brilliant movies A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove, Paths of Glory, Full Metal Jacket, Barry Lyndon, the Shining, and the Killing, all favorites of mine.

My favorite director who is alive today is six-time Academy Award® screwee, Martin Scorsese. Why? Mostly for Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Raging Bull, The King of Comedy, The Last Temptation of Christ, and my favorite film of 2002, Gangs of New York.

My favorite actor of all time is that fabulous Oscar™ winning song and dance man/psychotic gangster James Cagney, who starred in such fabulous motion pictures as White Heat, Love Me Or Leave Me, The Strawberry Blonde and of course Yankee Doodle Dandy.

My favorite actor that hasn't to my knowledge yet croaked is two time Academy Award® winner Robert DeNiro, star of such brilliant classics as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas and The Godfather: Part II.

My favorite actress is Oscar™ Winner Jodie Foster, mostly 'cause of Taxi Driver, The Silence of the Lambs, and The Accused.

My favorite TV show is The Simpsons. Hell, it's the only TV show that isn't despicable, contrived, soppy bullsh*t. Well, I like Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Tales From the Crypt, too.

Speaking of Mystery Science Theater 3000, the worst movie I have ever seen was featured on it in its best episode, Manos: The Hands of Fate. Ugh- how horrid! Great stuff.

The quote in a movie that most sums up my filmbuffery is from A Clockwork Orange:

"It's funny how the colors of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen."

It's so true!

Pretty good

This is a Disney movie about a man who is too adult that rediscovers youth through unusual circumstances. That's the plot of a great many films, but those films happen to be guilty pleasures for me. And this movie is no exception, it's an enjoyable film with a wonderful cast. Spencer Breslin, the actor playing 'the Kid' does a great job- and I've always been a Bruce Willis fan. The rest of the supporting cast also does some good work- Lily Tomlin is particularly fun. The movie gets you thinking about what you would think if you met yourself as a child- and what that child would think of you. And it shows you that just because you're an adult doesn't mean that you're ever done growing up. Good movie.

So powerful

Just watched this movie. Can't say much about it, except, WOW. This film is only half an hour long, but had it been any longer I don't know if I would be able to get through it. And I am not disturbed by movies... I have seen some pretty gruesome ones. But it's not the gore that makes this movie disturbing. And it's not even the necrophilia. We've all seen more graphic movies than this by far. It may not seem to be so upon first watching this movie, but there's actually not as much as it feels like there is. So I guess what makes this film so disturbing it is is the sterility of it; the coldness of the morgue; the fact that the victim has no idea she is the victim and the perpetrator of the crime shows no guilt towards his crime. The purely casual way this depraved character, excellently portrayed by Pep Tosar in a performance that hides half of his face most of the time, commits his indecent acts. That MIGHT be what makes this film a disturbing one- but it's hard to put your finger on it. Either way, you can't tear your eyes off of this thing once you've started watching.
