I think I'll use this one as kind of a litmus test for Maddin to see what my reaction is.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05222052132452709301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-27239251399290179762009-05-13T21:35:00.000-05:002009-05-13T21:35:00.000-05:00I was kind of cold on My Winnipeg, but loved Brand...I was kind of cold on <I>My Winnipeg</I>, but loved <I>Branded Upon the Brain!</I>.Kathie Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11855869667016065649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-77066049080202161712009-05-12T13:39:00.000-05:002009-05-12T13:39:00.000-05:00Well those are two rousing recommendations from tr...Well those are two rousing recommendations from trusted sources. I'm surprised that this film went completely unnoticed by me four years ago, if only because even before blogging I was still pretty on top of new releases. At the same time, My Winnipeg came and left in a flash last year, so maybe it's not that surprising.<br /><br />And thanks for the feedback, Pat.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05222052132452709301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-12928932513588033972009-05-12T10:26:00.000-05:002009-05-12T10:26:00.000-05:00Daniel - I think you're in for a treat.

It's the first and only Guy Maddin film I've seen.<br /><br />The new format looks great BTW.Patricia Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394997608325540950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-82919816846429475512009-05-11T23:53:00.000-05:002009-05-11T23:53:00.000-05:00I already bought my ticket to this one.

Maddin was at the Walker a few years ago, and, as you might expect, he has a very dry sense of humor. I also love <I>Saddest Music in the World</I>, a film I regularly quote.Kathie Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11855869667016065649noreply@blogger.com
