Breaking the Waves
This was a very hard movie to see. It made me feel for the characters more than any movie, with exception of Schindler's List.
It is very unsettling.
Emily Watson was amazing in it. I can't imagine how you would prepare for that role.
Stelan Skaarsgard (SP) was very good. It seems to me that he really changed thr out the movie. I'm still not sure if he married her out of love or because she is someone easy to manipulate, but you can tell by the last scene how much she really ment to him.
This isn't the kind of movie where the word 'Like' applies, you can't say it in those
Jackie Brown
I really don't have much to say about it, but I loved it.
Jackson was great as usual, although I wish there would be more of a diference between this character and the one from Pulp Fiction.
I'm surprised Robert DeNiro took the role. He doesn't speek much. When he does, it's very softly, with out the feel he usualy has behind his words. It's certaainly an important character, but it's overshadowed by everyone else. I really had a sort of face that was somewhere between amazment and laughing when he actualy shot Bridget Fonda because she wouldn't shut up.
Robert Forster was great, but IMO not enough to diserve an oscar nomination.
I think I've seen to many movies (especialy Pulp Fiction) that shows you different point of views of the same scenes, or plays with time, so the climax of the movie was ot all that impressive.
Again, I don't much else to say about the movie plot wise, but it was great.
