I think El Mariachi is valuable just as an example of really low-budget filmmaking that led to bigger things. Seeing El Mariachi and then the evolution of Rodriguez's technique with Desperado would be fun. I don't remember Once Upon a Time in Mexico that well, and if it were cut I wouldn't have strong feelings, but it also feels like they might as well. Surely it's as good as Live Free or Die Hard.

The TBR monthly drawing is so appreciated . Hope my pick gets lucky next time 😃

Smooticus

One of his lesser appreciated films nowadays. Pretty good even if a bit strange in a place or two

Paul Cox

Desperado has been included in polls before with the caveat that Daniel has already seen it. I don't know how much value there is in watching the films on either side of it (I know some people swear by El Mariachi, but it's only okay imo and no one ever talks about Once Upon A Time In Mexico for good reason lol).

Tyler Foster

Hopefully the whole El Mariachi trilogy is on the horizon if they're watching From Dusk Till Dawn. I don't think they've done Sin City either, and they can also throw in Planet Terror and Machete. (Can't say I care much for Machete Kills, though, and I never saw the second Sin City.)

It's coming up because it was the winner's pick on the last Schmitt Spin Raffle.

Paul Cox

Thinking a little more about that, it makes sense that she's worked with Sofia Coppola a few times. Coppola has definitely been influenced by Altman.

David Wilkins

It’s the strange and wonderful of Robert Altman. I hope we’ll eventually see a reaction to The Player (1992), which is a classic of sorts.

Paul Cox

Letterboxd posted one of their "Top Four" videos today and 3 Women was in Kirsten Dunst's top four. Thought that was timely!

I had no idea Three Women would be coming up. It's been a long time, but I remember the weird vibe of it reminding me of David Lynch.

Hmm, I've been meaning to watch more Altman films. I'm excited to see "Three Women"

Three Women is a great film. I love that your monthly drawings can expose you to classic films and directors that don't normally get a lot of attention from reaction channels.

Keith Brown

Thanks !

This was our monthly drawing winner, so it was random! -Sam

"Three Women" this may be the only showing I can recall for this movie !! What category did this win the vote on ? Director Robert Altman besides the movie MASH does not get wins in many polls.

Brent

Wooo! Excited for From Dusk til Dawn!

Odd Thomas

From Dusk is a LOT of fun. Interested to see 3 Women for the first time.

EdmanXERO

Y'all have been killin' the choices lately. Let's GO!

Hunter DeRensis

A great addition to a future horror poll would be Videodrome (1983), one of Cronenberg's best (same director as The Fly)

Great From Dusk Til Dawn

Paul Cox

Mine came from Desperado, but it was a few years ago on Graham Norton's show where I realized she shares a lot of characteristics and mannerisms with Lucille Ball that I actually fell in love, lol.

Florian Meier

Hell Yeah !! From Dusk Till Dawn is a Surprise :) Salma Hayek as Santanico Pandemomium is Another League ;) What a Performance and What A Song, can't wait to see your reaction
