A couple of years ago I went to see “Le Go\u00fbt des autres”. I was so bored by the film that it is only due to my laziness and disinclination to inconvenience other moviegoers that I did not leave the cinema half way though the film. Yet, looking back, I think about this film more often than about many films that I thoroughly enjoyed. I felt the same about “The Man Without a Past” by Aki Kaurism\u00e4ki. <\/p>\n
There are films that I enjoy right away, and some that have moments that make it worth the trouble regardless of how good or bad the rest of the film is. The Proposition (like much of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds music) falls into the third category with “Le Go\u00fbt des autres” and “The Man Without a Past”. These are the films that I do not like while watching them, give them credit for insight when I leave the theatre and think they’re brilliant several weeks later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
