Day: 3/9/08
A Feature: Direktøren for det hele (English Title: The Boss of It All)
B Feature: Cashback
Notes:
- Guest: Paul
- We almost got to see Darjeeling Limited
- Popular consensus - Cashback does not live up to its billing as a "B+ Feature"
- From imdb w/r/t Boss... and its nigh-gratuitous use of jump cuts. It wasn't Lars' fault (sorta) : "This movie is shot with camera technique called Automavision, an innovation in which the camera angles and movements are selected by a computer. The media notes explain technique, "a principle for shooting film developed with the intention of limiting human influence by inviting chance in from the cold". There are odd framings and jump cuts within scenes making everything seem a bit unsettled."

Cashback? I know IMDB gives it 7.5 stars, but I think it's a D+ feature...
Yuck, was it American Beauty? Fight Club? Field of frickin' Dreams? I have banished it from my mind.
