Finally we agree on something...something that I know about. This is from some UK magazine: ARENA, and I like how he openly adores Kill Bill and picked out the superb, unique qualities from the action sequences just the way I did or experienced while watching. And he wasn't afraid to gush about the heroism deep-set in the movie. A true movie fan.
I hate reading Keanu articles, it puts you in this place and you just wish it was a journey you needn't go.
Lastly, I'm curious to know what you made of Kill Bill?
I thought that Uma Thurman kicked some motherfucking ass. I thought she was awesome in that. All the acting was great. He took every great cinematic...it was almost like watching a fan, someone who really appreciated and enjoyed certain aspects of the genre. he just pumped it up to some incredible level.
That fight scene with Uma and Lucy Liu's henchmen reminded me of you and all the Agent Smiths.
Yeah, I guess, but he's doing his own thing. The way that he pumped up the blood, the massacre! He's so good editorially, he's great at tension, at creating pockets of heroism. It's almost like pornography. You know how pornography is really great, but sometimes you feel dirty?
Right, and it's uncomfortable watching porn for two hours straight.
Yeah...and that scene, when the kid is coming home from school? The editing in that, the confrontation between the violence and what is normal, innocence and the loss...he consumes everything, his films are fun, but ...I don't know what they mean. I'm a romanticist. It's not that I need a happy ending, but I do need some sort of restoration, getting out from the traps of life.
