423948, RE: your 2009 anticipation list. Posted by Sponge, Mon Dec-29-08 04:49 PM
I'm really, really anticipating #1-20 especially #1-14; anticipating #21-27; and will try to keep updated on the rest.
1. The Road
2. Sugar
3. Goodbye Solo – clips and other stuff: http://www.noruzfilms.com/trailers.html Love his 2 previous flicks, and this sounds great.
4. Revanche – trailer: http://www.revanche.at/ synopsis: http://filmguide.afifest.com/tixSYS/2008/filmguide/eventnote.php?EventNumber=4391 The trailer barely shows any hint of festival synopses that call it a tight, well-constructed thriller with an art film sensibility.
5. Of Time and the City – trailer: http://www.oftimeandthecity.com/video.php?id=50omm7zq0au Just on the style of DVSL and TLDC, Davies is one of the greatest living filmmakers.
6. Funny people - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1201167/
7. Silent Light – trailer: http://www.stelletlicht.com/ Scorsese called it transcendent, and it’s finally getting a limited release. Nearly everyone has raved about the opening and closing shots.
8. Public enemies
9. Lorna’s silence – trailer: http://www.diaphana.fr/ba.php?pkfilms=171 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1186369/
10. Gomorrah - http://www.ifcfilms.com/viewFilm.htm?filmId=1196 ’08 qualifying run, but limited ’09 release.
11. The Taking of Pelham 123 - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1111422/ The original is one of the greatest heist flicks, IMHO. Anticipating this to see how it’s remade.
12. This Side of the Truth - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1105299/ Gervais’ first feature-length as director and co-writer. Great cast.
13. Manure – teaser: http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/12/26/sundance-teaser-trailer-the-polish-brothers-manure/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0985695/ I’m quite a fan of Northfork. Premise sounds promising.
14. Shutter Island - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1130884/ Great fuckin’ cast.
15. A Serious Man
16. Brief Interviews With Hideous Men - http://www.briefinterviewsmovie.com/index.html http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0790627/ Krasinski directs and adapts a David Foster Wallace book.
17. Youth in Revolt - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0403702/
18. Bruno - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0889583/
19. Nine - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0875034/ DDL, Cotillard, and Cruz.
20. Avatar - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0499549/
21. Big Fan - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1314164/ Oswalt and Corrigan
22. Stay Cool - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1235807/
23. Whatever Works - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1178663/ Larry Fuckin’ David and Woody. Took long enough. And the great Patricia Clarkson.
24. The Year One - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1045778/ I’m curious to see a teaser. I don’t know how to visualize it right now. How much clothing will Olivia Wilde be wearing?
25. State of Play - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473705/ The original miniseries is very good and great at times so the compression and omissions could hurt. I also like ODIS and TTV by Macdonald.
26. The Missing Person – promo reel (with music): http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2008/12/15/SUNDANCE-09-Cinematographer-promo-reel-for-THE-MISSING-PERSON http://missingpersonmovie.com/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1105512/ Michael Shannon and Amy Ryan.
27. An Education - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1174732/ Sarsgaard and Hawkins.
28. Tokyo Sonata – trailer: http://www.tokyosonatamovie.com/media.html http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0938341/ I’m not really a fan of the other non-horror KK, Bright Future, I’ve seen. But I’m a sucker for domestic dramas. Still not anticipating this one as much as Still Walking, though.
29. Don’t Let Me Drown – http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0760166/
30. Moon
31. I Love You, Man
32. Adventureland
33. Sherlock Holmes – I know nothing of the comic book. Pretty much interested for now only because of RDJ and Marsan.
34. The Fantastic Mr. Fox - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432283/
35. Where the Wild Things Are - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0386117/
36. Broken Embraces - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0913425/ Cruz. Supposedly a little noirish.
37. Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
38. The Brothers Bloom
39. O’Horten - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0962774/
40. Knowing - http://www.knowing-themovie.com/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0448011/ I like Proyas and future-prediction stuff.
