Letters to the Editor

It's analytical journalism that's dead. Killed by bloggers like you.
Ever heard of David Lynch?
How about Jim Jarmusch?
Dare I mention Aki Kaurismaki?
Or Emir Kusturica?
You sound to me like a person who does not go to movies much,
and is now trying to justify that by saying there is nothing to see anyway.
Either that, or you are not able to value anything that hasn't received decades of critical acclaim.
Or maybe, your definition of 'dead' is not 'not being made',
but instead 'not being appreciated by a large percentage of moviegoers'? I don't agree with that either, because I doubt
that moviegoers that were forced to watch Bergman in his prime
went because they really appreciated. I think they just did not have the choice of say.. staying in and watching American Idol.
Oh.. and don't even think of putting Antonioni in the same category as Bergman.
