Wristcutters: A Love Story
this film is one of my favorites. Wristcutters has great scene, and an interesting story. This film is a must watch. It truely is about a love story which makes it weird to have love and suicide in the same movie.
The 400 Blows is about a misunderstood young adolescent who left without attention, delves into a life of petty crime. The film is kinda slow and long, but it truly is a perfect film to watch on a rainy day. If you like foreign films, you would enjoy this.
Control: it a movie base on The band Joy Division and the singers Ian Curtis. Good movie, im not comparing it to Mysery Train, but it has a tiny feel of that.

Lee Unkrich has been part of pixar's movies with such films like (A Bug's Life, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo) his most famous being the Toy Story movies. Within the three movies he has progressed to start from the first film being an editor, the second film being the co-director, and the third film being the director. The interview on The Treatment was aired on december 8th 2010. Unkrich is a longtime member Pixar, where he started in 1994 as a film editor. Even before Pixar he was a television editor for several years.
During the whole interview i learned about about the directors personally and how it corresponds in the films he makes. His perspective for the films (Toy Story 1-3) gave me a better insight of the films. It made the film that much more to watch knowing the time and how much effort they put themselves in the film.
The first quote that i found that was interesting was that Lee Unkrich with a question already given asked himself, "what did the characters have to learn" what he said second after was the most loving thing a that we can do for somebody that we care about is to let go of them. Since the first two movies where about the two main character, the third had talked about Andy, and how he was leaving for college. Woody tries to maintain Andes love in the end the best thing to do is not live in the past, but to let go and move on.
My second quote was just a statement in which the interviewer asked what character would Unkrich identify him self to? All the character Unkrich said had an aspect to someone that worked on the film, he said "Woody" was the one he would pick. Unkrich picking Woody would make the most sense, him being the director and Woody being the leader to the toys. What was also interesting was how he described Woody being an reluctant leader, he always tries to do whats best for the toy, but sometimes he realizes that maybe its not for the best and "Puts his boot in his mouth"
My third quote is about what he said in the benign when he talked about his feelings for toy story 3. he said "i was petrified" "i was flattered and honored and within seconds i wanted to throw up" he called his fear "fear base film making". He described how he was happy starting it because it was the most beloved film, but at the same time, it was the most beloved film, how would he meet everyone expectations to this film. If this film went bad it would be his fault, which was a biggest fear.
I really enjoyed this interview. i learned a lot about the director and a lot about Toy Story movies. Lee Unkrich is a major contributor to the world of film, coming from action packed movies to Disney Pixar movies made a great and lovable change with his other creations like monsters inc., A Bugs Life, and a lot others.
