The Favourite (2018)
Enjoyed the film; hated the credits
I know this is a small thing for most people, but I enjoy watching the credits, seeing everyone who worked on a film. The credits for this film were abominable.They were impossible to read. Whoever designed them and greenlighted that horrific display of hideous font work and overwrought design should never be allowed to work in film again. And, what surprises me even more - or, I guess it shouldn't - is there is no discussion of this when googling the film. Just who made it, awards, spoilers, rentals, cost ... any serious film goer should be offended by this total lack of regard for those who worked on the film.
October Moon (2005)
Are you kidding me?
This was one of the worst films I have ever seen. And I'm 54. There was a point in the 1970s that I saw over 500 films in one year. I've seen thousands I'm sure. But, this. Wow. There is dialog so pretentious, so unbelievable within the first ten minutes that we found ourselves thinking, "Well, maybe it will be a cult film, or campy" but the whole thing became so overbearingly amateurish we had to give up. The dialog was so lame and awful...the pacing (well there wasn't any) so bad, it became uncomfortable to watch. It became very obvious this was a group of people who got together and raised enough money for this vanity production thinking that 1)filmmaking was easy; 2)acting was easier; 3) writing and direction was simple. Even ad-libbing is difficult. There is nothing here. I rented this on Pay-per-view cable (PPV) and actually went to the trouble to ask them to give me a credit for the $4 today. My advice: Don't watch for more than 5 minutes or you'll have to pay. As a person who has written some small doc films and worked in editing, etc throughout the years, I understand the creative process. I give a lot of leeway toward a film. In my life, I have probably walked out of two films in theaters in my entire life. If I had seen this in the theater, it would be on that list.
