Baby. A servicable austrian police drama. The austrian film industry never fails to impress. Good pacing, and some funny parts. Even though there were only a couple of possible suspects , i was still left bewildered. Not to mention bewitched, by the zwei scheune polizei lovelyladypigs. Would i higly recommend this film? ..austrian film industry never fails to impress. Good pacing, and some funny parts.

Of course the weighted score is 7.8 , but not handily available. Wouldve been 8.6, it it wasnt for that gimp don.how does it get roles. Got zero screen presence. Given a juicy role, and its wasted. Best thing that can be said re film, it was entertaining from start to finish. Easily vinces best flick. Hopefully they can patch up bradley for a sequel. Coolest tough guy since softly, and prior o th at promises.

Agaim, best thing that can be said re film, it was entertaining from start to finish

Managed til robert was tap dancing, and skiing in its living room. At this pint had to stop for fear of wetting my pants, i aint no nyc landlord. Just patetiq. Guess when youre devoid of wit, one must restort to be being cute. This is in realm of every so called hollywierd comedy. Stop wastin oxygen.. til robert was tap dancing, and skiing in its living room. At this pint had to stop for fear of wetting my pants. Just patetiq.

Hey , lets make a film about boring obnoxious geeks. And make sure they are entirely devoid of wit. Shameful waste of great scenery and cinematography. Couldnt care less how it turns in or out. ,,ey , lets make a film about boring obnoxious geeks. And make sure they are entirely devoid of wit. Shameful waste of great scenery and cinematography.

PLEASE NOTE; this is corretced text. Last submission was misspaste ty. Havent had this much fun watchin a film in decades. True italia n wit grazie. Wonderful acting, story, women, locations, filmiong. Io sonno cantato...plaese make more films of this quality and charm. Ty 1000.also letve always profitez to whats inherit in all 'humanity'. Hate, jealousy, schadenfreud. A need to avoid conflict and adhere to populart consencus, which is easy to establisg when media is controlled. ....this film describes many of man 's underpinnings. Illustrating all the paradoxes, and a beautiful telling of it. Terrific acting does not hrt matter either, au contarire...Ty.

A Winter Tan (1987)
9/10
no chaser
2 December 2014
Lit professor and adventurer Maryse Holder was an aspiring novelist who, instead of writing, fired salvos from the front lines of the sexual revolution. Like a latter-day Malcolm Lowry, Holder found self-knowledge through her own self-destruction in Mexico, where she was murdered while on a bender (drugs, booze, sex - you name it) in 1978.

While Holder's posthumously published collection of letters, Give Sorrow Words, is not quite the literary caliber of Under the Volcano, it shocks with the acutely observed, scandalous wisdom of a decadent who lived life most passionately when she embraced death.

These letters are the basis of the brooding and extraordinary A Winter Tan, which may very well be the first epistolary movie.

As Holder, actress Jackie Burroughs (who, with four fellow Canadians, co- directed this unforgettable film) pours out Holder's 180-proof letters straight, no chaser. A sinewy androgyne with leathery skin and a raspy whine, Burroughs is so intense that she's almost impossible to look at.

Paradoxically, it's her intensity - call it raw nerve or exposed nerve or anything you like - that makes it impossible to look away. As Holder, Burroughs spends the movie engaging the camera as though it were her best friend to whom she's writing, talking of her appetites - for Mexican men, resort scenery, alcohol. Frequently she indulges them. She seizes male prerogatives - and expects to be punished for them because she's a woman.

Rarely have an actress and her material been so dynamically matched.
