Being There - 9/10
This is quite an intelligent comedy. I really enjoyed it. I came away thinking about all of its social and societal implications. I would recommend this movie to anyone who appreciates observation as an art form.
Mondo Cane - 4/10
I heard a lot of things about this documentary before I ever saw it, so I was expecting a lot. I wasn't expecting it to be good or anything like that, but I was expecting to see a lot of crazy things. A lot of those crazy things never really satisfied... in fact the scenes that did satisfy were not as long as they needed to be, while the focus on uninteresting aspects of life seemed to linger a little too long. The best scene in the film was the final clip, showing the "Cargo Cult" which is so fascinating to me. In the end, i was geared up for more than was delivered.
