that self portrait that Midge painted- and her expression after Scotty left- made me think of her no longer as motherly/sisterly but as crazy and I really expected it to be her that scared Judy/Madeleine off the belltower

I suppose I'm a bad classic movie watcher

Yes! It's been mentioned a couple times a few pages back.

I'm conspiring to drag my wife to it on opening night. We don't see many movies in the theater any more, but this is one I want to see. It might be a great movie, or it might be a spectacular failure. Either way, I like their ambition. We do not have enough original movies like this, and we have way too many Total Recall 2's.

Tim Grierson's review of Malick's upcoming To the Wonder: http://deadspin.com/5943042/?utm_campai ... socialflow
He compares it as the Amnesiac to Tree of Life's Kid A. I liked Amnesiac better than Kid A, so hopefully that holds true in more ways than just being a companion piece.

Its been a lot of fun reading the early reviews of the highlights from TIFF. Avclub and joblo are my two movie review joints if choice, and both sites have been putting up plenty of opinions. pretty varied reviews on Cloud Atlas, which sounds like either a convoluted pile of crap, or a convoluted mass of cool visuals and inspiring blah blah blah.

Technicians digitally recreate color film shot in 1902

To be clear, this was not hand-colorization, this was some dude way ahead of his time who shot true color photography by using three colored filters.

To be clear, hand-colorization done in 1902 and earlier by Georges Melies and his crew is nothing to scoff at. Today, it's nothing. But in 1902, it was no walk in the park. It took a tremendous amount of craftsmanship to do that at the time.

This was 1899, with each individual cell hand painted.

I am aware of this. The point was the technological innovation of true color photography.
