Not Yet Watched But Already Loved 2

The second installment in my ongoing series of films in my Netflix Queue that I love, but haven't seen:


Boxcar Bertha


Boxcar Bertha Martin Scorsese's first widely-released feature (produced by Roger Corman). Having seen most of Scorsese's short films, I'm interested to see Scorsese young and given the limited means to make a feature. I'm not expecting "Mean Streets", but I am expecting a young filmmaker committing some inspired moments to film.


Tropical Malady

Directed by Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Experimental Thai love story where the guy disappears and then there is some debate as to whether he is a "menacing, shape-shifting beast."


In Cold Blood (1967)

The movie version of Truman Capote's book (not yet read, but already loved), starring Robert Blake, who was acquitted of murder of his wife, but was subsequently found liable in the civil case, plays Perry. This one sends shivers down my spine.



R. Kelly: Trapped in the Closet

A DVD companion piece based on Kelly's song "Trapped in the Closet". This can't not be funny! I'm waiting for the DVD companion to R.'s "Sex in the Kitchen".


Where the Buffalo Roam

"Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" starring Bill Murray.



Comments:
Big fan of In Cold Blood. The book is awesome. I have avoided "Trapped In The Closet" because I saw one video of I think part one, and I nearly laughed myself to death. This could actually kill me.
