See the full gallery. Title: The Killer Inside Me Sadism and masochism beneath a veneer of revenge. Lou Ford is a mild-mannered sheriff's deputy in a Texas oil town in the mid 's. His boss sends him to roust a prostitute living in a rural house. She slaps him; he hits her, then, after daily sex for the next few weeks, The Killer Inside Me decides it's love. She's devoted to him and becomes his pawn in a revenge plot she thinks is to shakedown the son of Chester Conway, the town's wealthy king of construction. Lou has a different plan, and The Killer Inside Me pile up as murder leads to murder. The The Killer Inside Me attorney suspects Lou, and Conway may have an The Killer Inside Me, but Lou stays cool. Is love, or at least peace, in the cards? They read books don't they? I have a little habit on this site especially when I am unfamiliar with a films content, its director or writer. I The Killer Inside Me at the IMDb viewer reviews, starting by filtering them with the "hated it" box checked. If people have a good solid reason for hating a film or disliking it, a reason of substance, then I read 1 or 2 of "the bests" but consider twice whether I The Killer Inside Me to watch it. In the case of this film, I'd already seen it. I looked at the viewer reviews because it was an adaptation of a Jim Thompson novel and I wanted to see how people reacted. Especially because I was surprised, having seen it, by the films low rating. For those of you who know nothing of Thompson's work I direct you to the Wikipedia article on him. In it, Steven King who I assume most people on this site know as he The Killer Inside Me the IMDb rated 1 film of all time, "The Shawshank Redemption" The Killer Inside Me he "most" admired Thompson specifically for three lets Now I know that the ratings here can be a little skewed. For example, is Inception really the 6th greatest film ever made. In the IMDb world virtually every episode of every TV show ever made is always ranked higher than any feature. Look at Jessica Alba's work sorted by rating Could every episode of Dark Angel have really been that good? Maybe it The Killer Inside Me means that IMDb viewers prefer short form fiction to the long form. Or The Killer Inside Me the editor of New York Magazine is quoted to have addressed his staff, "I don't want anything in this rag I can't read in one good crap". Its a foregone conclusion that lot of people who frequent IMDb spend a good portion of their time being visually entertained and they might not have enough time left to peruse the printed work as much as they aught; Maybe not even enough time to search out some intelligent criticism before they make their viewing choices. But the number of 1 star, I hated it, reviews for this film defy all reason. Sure the subject matter is inherently offensive. But as Andrew O'Hehir said in his Salon. Maybe if people read a little about a film before they invest their 2 bucks and 2 hours they could avoid subjecting themselves to films they won't like and spare us all their trenchant voicing of how they hated London because their vacation there was ruined when it rained the whole damn time they were there. Paris would be great too, if they spoke more English and And if you find Jessica Alba so one dimensional you want to kill her, maybe that's the point. There is a likable comic buffoon in Noiret's playing of the character a little at odds with Thompson's Looking for something to watch?

Then in the next shot the hair disappears under the hat. Lives about four or five miles out on Derrick Road past the old Branch place. Lou Ford : Oh, I know the old Branch place.

Little, however, can save The Killer Inside Me from its worst impulses, its reveling in brute violence that makes it hard to watch and nearly impossible to admire, even though it's carefully crafted.

As for the misogynist The Killer Inside Me, it is indeed depraved, made more so by the fact that its The Killer Inside Me victims are depicted as loving their abuse right up until it turns murderous.

    'Tracks' Director John Curran and Photographer Rick Smolan Discuss

    SUBSCRIBE MENU ‘Tracks’ Director John Curran and Photographer Rick Smolan Discuss Bringing Robyn Davidson’s Journey to the Big Screen Emily Manthei good film is a journey: a story that takes the viewer from beginning to end on a movement through space, A time, and emotion. Tracks is also a “journey” film in the literal sense. It’s the true story of an Australian woman’s solitary walk across nearly 1,700 miles of Australian desert from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean and the photos of an intrepid National Geographic photographer who dropped in on her along the way. But, more importantly, it’s a journey film in the philosophical sense, as it invites viewers to take their own journey: from curiosity to discovery; self-doubt to confidence; adolescence to adulthood. It’s the journey so many of have experienced in the open-handed, non-destination-based travels of youth. John Curran’s new film starring Mia Wasikowska is this mesmerizing, filmic journey, adapted from the real-life traveler Robyn Davidson’s 1980 memoir of the same name. It was written after the overwhelming response to her National Geographic article and the photos by Rick Smolan, which accompanied it in 1977. Adam Driver co-stars as Smolan. The story of the film began in 1984, when director John Curran was 24 years old, a native New Yorker on his way to Australia to escape the hectic, ambitious world he knew. He was handed some reading material for his journey: “A Day in the Life of Australia,” a giant coffee table book filled with lush, gorgeous photos of places he had never been, photographed by a man whose name he did not then know: Rick Smolan.

    Predicting Box Office from the Screenplay: a Text Analytical Approach

    Predicting Box Office from the Screenplay: A Text Analytical Approach Starling David Hunter III Tepper School of Business, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh PA1 Susan Smith Department of Mass Communication, American University of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates Saba Singh Department of Interaction Design, School of Visual Arts, New York, NY Abstract: Empirical studies of the determinants of box office revenues have mostly focused on post-production factors, i.e. ones known after the film has been completed and/or released. Relatively few studies have considered pre-production factors, i.e. ones known before a decision has been made to greenlight a film project. The current study directly addresses this gap in the literature. Specifically, we develop and test a relatively parsimonious, pre-production model to predict the opening weekend box office of 170 US-produced, English-language, feature films released in the years 2010 and 2011. Chief among the pre-production factors that we consider are those derived from the textual and content analysis of the screenplays of these films. The most important of these is determined through the application of network text analysis—a method for rendering a text as a map or network of interconnected concepts. As predicted, we find that the size of the main component of a screenplay’s text network strongly predicts the completed film’s opening weekend box office. 1 Corresponding author: [email protected] (email address can be published), phone: +1 786 352-8784 (please do not publish phone number) 1 1.
