Peter Jackson.

I really appreciate how, given what must be incredible temptation based on the scale of his films, he manages to avoid excess.

    Stephen, I am very thanksful to your rec. of the Lanterne Magique book.
    In the middle of it and when compared to the Bunuel book very different.
    South and North, one could say.
    - Kind of like their films - sjb 07:19:03 08/31/07 (2)
      I still haven't started the Bunuel book as I'm waiting to re-watch "That Obscure Object Of Desire". I recently re-wathed "Belle Du Jour" (liked it) and, for the first time, "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie" (loved it) but want to add that third film before diving in.

      - "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie" has at least two *highly memorable* scenes. nt - clarkjohnsen 08:09:05 08/31/07 (1)

        It's almost on the verge of being out of control for moments here and there but it all works in the end.
