Went and saw Gaspar Noés latest, Love, at the cinema; his explicit foray into art-porn, shot in 3D -- of course.

Carrie (2013)
I was curious about this due to Kimberly Pierce being attached as director, but it's all a little humdrum. While I don't mind Moretz as a rule, she looks uncomfortable as Carrie. Not...

I've seen many similar reactions and I can't fathom it.. I loved TWE. Actually I enjoyed it as much as Shaun regards first time viewing. Whether it stands the test of time as Shaun has remains to be...
