Vincent Gallo Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 Yeah, I'm with you on Godard, Truffaut, fellini and Antonioni. Some of the best directors ever. And Yeah, let's talk about 'Brown Bunny' plus and minus the 30 or so minutes that made Ebert hate or love it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I had lunch with Ebert and his wife recently, nice people. He can be a little childish at times though. I was sitting behind him at a screening of Wong Kar-Wai's 2046 at Cannes, which was wonderfull, and he was booing like a school boy at the end. He's seen the re-edited version and since I explained the thoughts and aesthetic behind the film, he says his opinion on it has shifted. I was going to have Lance Acord, who shot Buffalo 66, shoot the film but he had already signed up for another project so me and Toshiaki Ozawa shot it ourselves. Its not a film everybody will like but not everybody likes Godard, Fellini or Pasolini at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you simply remove segments of shots that some people complained went on too long or were scenes removed? Ebert seemed really amazed by it. I haven't seen the original edit, just curious.

DavidSloan Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 (edited) Is this really Vincent Gallo? That's interesting. What the hell are you doing in the 99 problems video?! lol :D Edited December 12, 2004 by DavidSloan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lombre Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 This is my first post here and I just found that discussion on Janusz Kaminski, who I think wether Mr. fstop agrees or not is just an outstanding director of photography. If Speilberg (Spielly for you) took him to work on his films, there is probably one good reason; TALENT. If you want to become as good as him, one day, stop to talk like you are and just try to learn from a talented DP as JK. Sans rancune !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
