Movie Corner

I can't reccomend Mike Nichols Catch 22 enough. It is an excellent film, and one that until now I had not seen. There is a similar structure at work in this film as there is in Memento where the entire film is working itself back towards the beginning and you are not sure what is going on all of the time. Many, many great performances in this film in cameo roles, such as Orson Wells as Brig General Dreedle.

Good comedy, good sentimentality, good film.

I also watched Asia Argento's Scarlet Diva, which was not as good. That's all I'll say about it.

Next on the list is The Duel a crazy kung-fu special effects epic comedy starring Ekin Chang. I'll let you know what I think.
