just watched "year of the dog." i like this kind of movie. low-key. it kinda takes a lot to get me interested in a movie, after having netflix and blockbuster pass and with my parents going nutsos renting like 15 movies a week i've learned to filter the crap movies from the good ones. so actually, i should rephrase that it takes very little to get me interested in a movie, that is, it takes only a little bit of well-made movie to get me to sit down and watch the whole thing (usually i'll give it about 10 minutes and if i'm not interested it's back in the postage-paid envelope for ye!). like this one, very simplistic, not a ton of music or dialogue, but good use of non-talking time and seemingly plain yet effective cinematography. not like i know anything about movie making or anything, but i think that quality work is when you don't notice the camera angles or special effects or movie-production extras. just a simple story very well executed. not too intellectual, actually a bit depressing, kinda wussy, but surprisingly uplifting. i liked it.
