Enter the void, and enter the new title.

Jan 5- This is a very important day, the first highlight of 2011. I became an uncle today, my sister safely given birth to a healthy baby and being a family which is big but not connected, comes the feeling of freshness because our household consists of senior citizens like my father. The old man smell at home needs to be get rid off now, so bring on the nappies and J&J!
In the subject of life, at long last i have watched one of the movies in my target list, Enter The Void. It's from Gaspar Noe, one of the most innovative filmmakers of this era. Everyone knows what an impact he made with Irreversible, and i was stoked to see what he could offer this time around.
EVT is one of those films that could make you appreciate it, or just turned off by it. It splits opinions and gives a hell of a challenge to the viewer. If you only watch films for the sake of entertainment then this is not for you. If you want something groundbreaking and out of the box then by all means watch it. Its about these two siblings, one a drug dealer/junkie and his sister which is a stripper at the gleaming streets of Tokyo. The two have somewhat of an odd relationship, where brother gets jealous if sister is out with other men. Like man that is sick.
Its a simple plot, but what makes EVT stands out is it's glorious cinematography and camerawork. The theme of EVT is death and reincarnation... and it certainly feels like a trip. A devastating mind trip.
I'm still in a hallucinated effect as i'm writing this....and wondering what's next for the master of nausea would offer.

Happy second day of 2011

Jan 2- Yes folks, i am a lazy ass person who couldn't post anything for the new year.
