Re: Speaking of Nicholas Roeg...

If you liked The Man Who Fell to Earth, you might want to catch Performance. It has uses the same cut-up style, where it is hard to tell what is in sequence. I think I prefer the Man Who Fell to Earth, but I like both.

On a whim I rented Track 29. A bit pretensious, and silly in a B movie way, but quite enjoyable given my rather modest expectations.

I found Walkabout disappointing, but maybe my expectations were a bit too high. The concept was interesting, and ultimately the story was interesting too, but the pace was too slow and Roeg's reliance on languid shots of the protagonists dewy body is too little substance for a two hour movie. In all fairness, though, many others seem to have a different opinion on this film.
