I could have seen THE PROPHET yesterday but saw THE GIRL WITH THE instead.

Apparently the producer held the rights to a sequel and decided he'd have a (small) built in audience if he called it that. <br /><br />Supposedly Abel Ferrara was aghast and Herzog's response was "Who is Abel Ferrara? I have never heard of this person." <br /><br />But you're right. Different films for sure.jedidiah ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14601451789918885612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2681306287721676137.post-54867819007933742382010-04-10T20:17:37.907-07:002010-04-10T20:17:37.907-07:00When I saw the title I was thinking the song by Cr...When I saw the title I was thinking the song by Crime and the City Solution-- which is used in the film Wings of Desire as I recall.<br /><br />I saw Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans this week, and as a fan of the first film I like to think of it as the Kinda Bad Lt. Not that it was a bad film, just that it lacked the grit, surreal nature and the downbeat nature of the first film. I do want to see it again, there were a couple of amazingly great scenes.Irenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18078694505194875348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2681306287721676137.post-37035358166982942712010-04-10T14:01:07.310-07:002010-04-10T14:01:07.310-07:00Loved The Adversary.

It that rare combination of naturalistic and dreamlike, and it all works perfectly. Can't wait to see it again.Dennis Tafoyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07046256969487413161noreply@blogger.com
