Even though it isn't a great amount of music, I listen to it all the time when I'm writing. And I love how it's only used in the beginning and end of the film.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-73720477524453705632015-04-20T14:06:43.175-04:002015-04-20T14:06:43.175-04:00You know I don't want to disagree this film is...You know I don't want to disagree this film is masterful in every way and maybe I'll change my rating some day but I'd give it an A right now. My problems with the film are minimal and can be attributed to personal taste, but interesting enough it is the same thing that I felt, for me, that was wrong with 12 Years a Slave.

I love static shots, still images, all the visual styles you've described, plus I loved HUNGER too, so I am excited beyond words to see it.Tylerhttp://magnoliaforever.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-44575126843176979342011-12-08T15:55:44.452-05:002011-12-08T15:55:44.452-05:00Thanks man.

I've been hearing bad things about ADM, which is kind of a bummer. Let me put it this way: if you loved Hunger and you enjoy movies about human destruction and isolation, then SHAME is most definitely for you. Can't wait to read what you think.Alex Withrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887018476048271594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-41884444954602025282011-12-08T14:03:52.010-05:002011-12-08T14:03:52.010-05:00God, I'm so jelous!

I am a huge fan of Fassbender - I saw all of his movies, including such obscure ones as "Angel" or "Carla" and evne if the movie sucks he is always on top of his game. in ADM he delivers one of his worst, but it's still a good performance - the script and the director is to blame for the low quality. I have huge expectations for Shame, I loved Hunger and I like movies about human destruction and isolation. <br /><br />Great review and it got me waiting for the movie even more than I was before! :)s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-52849901676045965212011-12-08T13:59:24.075-05:002011-12-08T13:59:24.075-05:00Man, every review I've read keeps pointing out...Man, every review I've read keeps pointing out that one shot of him.
