I saw an interview with Ed Harris when he was promoting pollock, rose never watched the movie and kept getting the name of the movie wrong. Charlie also did not pay Harris the courtesy of listening to him properly. Harris said he was worried about not making his shooting days and rose said 'what to low a budget?'. Harris was talking about running over schedule because of multiple takes. Rose clearly does not know much about how movies are made and he obviously doesn't do his own research on his guests before they came on his show. He looks at his notes from the producer on the show and I have to wonder how he had a show for so long, he's rude.

Tron
(1982)
Still holds up visually
2 October 2015
Unique in its effects using light. A great concept that is current more now than ever. MCP's becoming self aware, you wrote it but it will control you. Great story-line about stealing a genius's creation and taking credit for it. Imagine if an m.c.p became self-aware and online you got framed for a crime you didn't commit because it was forged on all news sites. This film opens the door to that concept. The visuals are unique so they still hold-up 33 years later. It should have made the kind of money back to the future did, it's that great. Lovely music score too. Jeff Bridges gives a joyous playful performance too. I highly recommend you tune in to TRON.
Psychotropica

An Audio Visual entrancing gripping Trip
29 August 2015
Lord Sage the Master behind this epic trip made a gripping tale that is visually unique in its brilliance and the music present here and quick cutting for intensity will leave you yearning for more. It's an interesting journey into one troubled mans mind that has flashbacks and imaginations that are expertly handled with a 'colored over' quality that makes this stand out amongst other independent productions. It looks like it had money behind it, yet amazingly it was made with zero budget. Great acting, very sexual and inventive with its violence. I highly recommend you see it High or sober. You'll be mesmerised. I can't wait to see what LORD SAGE makes next. 'Blue Nights' I hear is just around the corner. Look out for it, I WILL.
Below Zero
(2011)
Below Zero by name only, this was an ABOVE Average
2 February 2012
A slow burning thriller. When I found out that this film was written by a writer (Signe Olynyk) who suffered from writer's block and locked herself inside a freezer for 5 days I was instantly drawn in by her commitment to break through her dry spell. This film isn't autobiographical but it does hold some elements of truth to it. Namely the writer Jack (Edward Furlong) locks himself inside a freezer to free himself from writer's block while hoping to come up with a screenplay. Once the film kicks into gear as a member of the audience I had to ask myself why a guy would lock himself in a freezer without a proper toilet to crap in? The second thing I wondered is what Jack would do to his agent once he got out of the freezer. Would he sue his agent? The film deals with none of this. Want to learn about 'hacks' see this; What this film does deal with is what a screenwriter must visually see when the plot out a story. This is done by showing characters and events in the writer's life then being twisted and turned in his story and presented to us. The film has a very nice twist ending that will please the audience by taking them for a ride. Below Zero has snappy dialogue and excellent performances by Edward Furlong, Kristen Booth, and Michael Berryman. This is Edward Furlong's best movie in years. The main thrills come from the parts of the film in Jack's mind that give us nail biting suspense and brutality. It's a low budget slow burner for anyone who is more inclined to a well written dramatic piece instead of action packed horror film. Watch out for writer Signe Olynyk, she is a talent for the future.
