Not really... not like Withnail or 4 Weddings.is Blow Up considered a proper English film? do the Brits take national pride?
Lock stock is closest to my experience of life as a briton
PTA, Lynch, Coens.
It's interesting isn't it. I quite enjoy the unreconstructed stupidity of Lynch because I'm not a snob but I can see why Craner recoils from it. He's the definition of basic. Gays and midgets are sinister and token Chinese birds get turned into teapots. It's moronic. But at the same time, it's quite fun. Freud for the slow readers class
Punch Drunk Love stuck with me, but a fellow kid in one of my classes pointed out that all Sandler needed to do was deviate from his usual performance and he would be lauded. A bit overstated, but not by much. Not to dismiss his performances in Punch Drunk Love or in Uncut Gems, both of which I respected - but there is some truth to that, no?
