    19

    This film is not as old as it looks from the still. Yet is still a Masterpiece.

    Agree with Matt. We should solve previous quizes before moving on. Anyone figure out #138 yet? I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it, but can’t place it.

    As for this one, no idea.

    Swarez: That’s funny! But also missing by a mile!

    Andrew: SS #138 is from a science fiction picture that we’ve talked about multiple times on the Cincecast, recently.

    I love all these choices. They are awesome. But so far off…

    (The film is Canadian, and received no wide release in the cinema, but definitely has a major cult following)

    I’m sure it’s a Guy Maddin film, but I’ve only seen Tales from the Gimli hospital.
    So Brand upon the Brain or My Winnipeg.

    Not the Crispin Glover project (but novel guess!). Swarez is on the right track, but still wrong.

    I thought it might be Maddin. Where’s our Maddin expert. Colleen???

    I think I know what it is. Can I guess?

    ArchAngel.. No that was a missing limb.
    Saddest Music… Also a missing limb
    My winnipeg … No that was a dead brother under the carpet
    Cowards bend the knee… No amputated hands

    I give up.

    total guess Twilight of the ice nymphs

    Dracula was my guess. I don’t remember that much red in any of his other films…at least not in the one’s I’ve seen.

    He used alot of over exposed color in “Careful”, but I can’t remember any one eyed guy. I do remember the towns people severing the local cords on their sheep to keep the avalanches at bay.

    I Heart Maddin!

    Collen to the rescue. CAREFUL it is. Zeitgeist has a swanky new Special Edition coming out at the end of the month! Yay!

    It’s a great movie to get lost in… Hilarious and very stylish.

    It is a Guy Maddin. It’s the short one, something about a Heart. Just a sec… let me look through the collection…. There it is ‘Heart of the World’ or one on that series of shorts.

    I knew Kurt’s hobby would pay off some day. What did I win?

    If its Guy Maddin it doesn’t really count.

    Heart of the world is Maddin Best film, but since it was a short I didn’t even think of it.

    Well, I found out that I was incorrect. Darn! And I was so sure. It is a Guy Maddin though.
