[Uncle Spielberg]

[Les Biehn]

Duel ain't that great. It only got a bit of praise coz the Frenchies loved it.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

[Les Biehn]

More interesting than your stalker-like desire to bukakke Steven Spielberg: have you watched Goodbye Lenin yet?

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

No

Last weeks home video here was pretty spectacular, very low budget and will be shown to a worldwide audience next week when the Royal Mail delivers it to the Australian viewing audience. All sorts of nudity, food throwing and naughtiness involved....(from an 8.5 month old)

Title: King Arthurs food fights of the Round Table!!

 

[Les Biehn]

You still haven't told what you mean't by that comment Unc. Did you want me to clarify what I said about Duel.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Are Jean de Florette and Manon Des Sources low-budget? Brilliant films anyway.

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

For a low budget film Duel is excellent and shows the talent bursting from the screen from a 24 year old film maker that would become the greatest film maker of his generation and any other.

That is all.

Wasn't The Commitments a low budget film ? Now that was a great film.

 

[Les Biehn]

Very true. He is very adept at making populist, mother fixated films but he is certainly not the filmmaker of his generation. Its like saying Pizza Express make the best pizza's in the world.

 

[zefarelly]

Wasn't The Commitments a low quality film ? Now that was a film budget couldn't save.

I'd agree with that

Critic dictionary

Populist

" If the unwashed flotsome and jetsome of society like a film and make it popular it automatically defaults that this film must therefore be utter gash and any respectable film critic will slate it, probably without even seeing it and make themselves feel superior to said flotsome and Jetsome. Also see Mark Kermode. "
