1) Trudell: Independent Lens(8/10)
I had never heard of Trudell before this film.
The documentary is an extraordinary look back on the life of John Trudell and the struggles of his life that he has taken on as a Native American activist, poet, musician, actor, lecturer etc. Basically most of the this documentary content came from different smaller documentaries, TV interviews and old pictures. If you never heard of Trudell, then documentary offers a good overview about a special man. I need to listen his music now.
2) Killer of sheep(10/10)
A hidden gem from 70’s movies. Basically you will not see any big plot & surprises & whole movie centered on Stan, who works at a local meat factory, and his wife and children. The scenes of daily life are pure, original and simple. {whether children throwing rocks at each other, trains, climbing on houses, the innocence of a young girl singing to doll, spending a day in dog mask etc.)
Simply a brilliant movie. DVD comes with three additional short movies by Burnett’s.
3) Phone Booth: (7.5/10)
This movie about a New York publicist played by Colin Farrell's, who is using the last phone booth in Manhattan when he's pinned down by a sniper. You will see so many plot holes and yet still hold viewer interest till the end & the ending was boring. Colin performance was good. Another good aspect of this movie was it takes place around a single phone booth except first 15 minutes.
