directors

gaspar noe's latest:
enter the void

his last movie (irreversible) fucked me up so much inside that i couldn't sleep for days after watching it.
also felt this way after seeing oasis (이창동)
dancer in the dark (lars von trier)
and old boy (박찬욱).
i bow down to the brilliance of these directors, but i hate the way i feel inside after i watch movies like these.
disoriented.
dazed.
like my skin is crawling, from the inside out.
yet i can't stop.

on a happier feel-good note, check out benson's kick-ass, slamming, award-winning documentary:
planet b-boy

i have never been prouder to be korean than after watching those credits roll. wish i had moves like that.
benson, you've got style on-camera and off. props to you sir.
