2046 and Jaws

Yeah I know there has been alot of Wong Kar Wai film on this blog lately. But honestly there all film that you should be checking out and seeing and going gaga over. This is the end of a kind of loose trilogy with Days of being wild and in the mood for love I don't think this is the best film in the trilogy but it's terrible or anything.
It is a good film about a man writing a sci-fi story about people trying to get to 2046. It's hard to explain without giving things away. so just see the other two films before this one.
Tony Leung Chiu Wai does a great job and many call me a modern day Clark Gable in this role I agree with them. He has the class and unclassieness to pull it off. also a really kick ass moutache.
Aprently everyone is speaking there native language in this film. i couldn't tell most of the time cause they all sounded like languages i didn't understand. but thats intresting. I hope if you read this blog and have not seen these films you will cause there defently good and really you need to see more world cinema anyway.

so man I don't really know what to say about jaws. it is really wild and amazing film. everything it started. I watched this in the av room with some student workers and intresting fact there are like 5 black people in this movie. however there was debate over if there are 4 and we counted someone twice because they walked by the camera too quick.
anyway instead of writing a review for a movie everybody loves here's some facts.
one of the first "high concept films" a term that was made up by media executives Barry Diller and Michael Eisner while they were at abc.
wikipedia quote
"The plot of a high concept movie is easily understood by audiences, and can often be described in a sentence or two, and succinctly summarized by the movie's title. High concept movies feature relatively simple characters and a heavy reliance on conventions of film genre. Stylistically, high concept movies tend to be high-tech, crisp, and polished. Such movies also rely on pre-sold properties such as movie stars to build audience anticipation, and use heavy advertising, market research, and test screenings to ensure maximum popularity. Some high concept movies are built as star vehicles for successful music and sports personalities to enter the movie business. Often high concept movies are pitched as combinations of existing high concept movies, or unique twists on existing titles."

Jaws was the first film to use tv ads.

also started a big release stragey which is now common place films that followed it are the omen the next summer and then star wars the summer after that.
