Truck Turner (1974. USA) Jonathan
Kaplan
-
a must see
Very underrated blaxploitation film that came
with Joe Dante’s seal of approval, and who just happens to have a character
named after him in the film. Coincidence?
16.
Savage Grace (2007, USA) Tom Kalin
[2008 based on theatrical run] -
worth seeing [C-]
See it if only for the extraordinary performance
by Eddie Redmayne. Everything else, including Julianne Moore's overacted trainwreck
character, is nothing we haven't seen before.

H.O.T.S. (1979, USA) Gerald Seth
Sindell -
has redeeming facet
A bad T&A movie, I hardly remember what it
was about, but I think I enjoyed it at the time.

Barbarella (1968, France) Roger
Vadim -
worth seeing
Hard to believe this was as influential as it
was. How many band names came out of this film? I counted three…
23.
Caramel (2007, Lebanon) Nadine
Labaki -
worth seeing [C]
Undistinguished women’s picture that certainly
aims for big things and according to Amy Taubin manages to get there, but for
me Labaki’s intentions are never fully realized in her final product.

Camp rating ???? Is it the camp masterpiece everyone proclaims?
I’ll hold off on my evaluation until I’ve had a chance to watch
it with a late night crowd, in the meantime however highly recommend
you check this sucker out for yourself…
