I am definitely interested by taking up the films of Claire Denis as I have heard many great things about them. When I do, I will definitely keep you in mind when reviewing them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05964382571233458979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4796587638207184736.post-77594327172634624102012-01-23T10:43:00.102-08:002012-01-23T10:43:00.102-08:00i'd include, although i dont know if on the ma...i'd include, although i dont know if on the main list or honorable mention, the blues hammer scene from 'ghost world'. amazingly powerful yet subtle. there are some very important moments in Neil Labutte's 'in the company of men' that I'd also include (when aaron eckhart makes the black intern pull his pants down and the scene when there's an office full of white guys laughing & talking and soon as the black guy walks in the room they all get quiet for a second). its a great look at not only misogyny in the workplace, but racism too. claire denis' first three films (chocolat, no fear no die and i cant sleep) are also GREAT looks at interracial romance without it being thrown in your face. <br /><br />good list, btwMarcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09550373157852267023noreply@blogger.com
