look at that fucking poster! look at it again! so great!
first things first, i HATE the cure, more importantly robert smith. i can't stand him and his voice. I don't like sean penn very much either, although his performances have pleased a few times. Sweet and Lowdown, Milk, and of course Fast Times. so why would i want to see this movie? pure hilarity, at least for me.
this film was shown in 35mm format. kick fucking ass!
i don't know what to make of this film, it's really more like two films smashed together that should have nothing to do with one another. one being about an aging depressed gothic rock star(who's not robert smith) and his connections with people. The other film, is a avenge my jewish fathers torture in nazi germany movie. what the fuck? yes, both plots are happening and should could be entire films on their own. i don't know what is happening with this, however, i can say that i was entertained the entire way. another issue i had with this movie is that it didn't have too much exposition, so it made you think about what was going on, but it DID have 3 narrators. what? two of them pretty useless. cheyenne's(yes that's the rock star's name) wife narrates maybe 3 lines of the whole film and you're like, wait, what, who's talking?
sean penn is funny and i'm mostly sure he was trying to be, so that's good. good job sean! frances mcdormat, who once came to the Dobie and signed an ice cream sign, was phenomenal as usual. This is worth a good laugh, but it could have been about one of these things and not the other and been much for solid of a picture.
but shit, sean penn will probs get an ocsar for it. arg.
