Boarding Gate [2007]

1. Asia Argento strangling Michael Madsen with a belt. Yeah, you had to be there.
2. Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon as a sullen, mysterious businesswoman.
3. She stuffs the bloody blouse in a trash can. Severe jet lag.

3 Things about Agnès Varda’s THE GLEANERS AND I

The Gleaners and I [2000]

1. The basket of heart-shaped potatoes, slowly rotting. Potatoes that are perfectly edible but too big are simply dumped at the side of the road by the farmers.
2. The man eating parsley, explaining that it’s rich in beta carotene.
3. Using one hand to film the other hand.

3 Things

Frozen Land [2005]

1. She opens her mouth like a coquettish robot and he places one yellow pill on her tongue.
2. The drip at the end of the policewoman’s nose turns to snot. She wipes it away with her hand.
3.  The blond boy in a robe, snorting coke, doing a shot of whiskey, laughing (but we don’t hear him).

A dour little slice of Finnish misery, but strangely compelling.
