Summer Cinema Continues

OK, so Micmacs à tire-larigot (Micmacs) didn't make it here today as I previously wrote. Hopefully it'll arrive soon.





On the other hand, I have learned that Michael Winterbottom's The Killer Inside Me is slated to open at Sundance on the 23rd of this month. It's an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Jim Thompson published in 1952 and the film caused a stir at the Sundance Festival earlier this year with charges that it was misogynistic.





And next week Christopher Nolan's Inception opens. Early reviews have generally been good and, if they're to be believed, the film is akin to the work of two of my favorites: Stanley Kubrick and Philip K. Dick.
