The Mindscape of Alan Moore (2003)
Shouldn't have been a film...
I am a huge Alan Moore fan, so naturally I grabbed up this opportunity to see into the mind of one of my heroes when I saw it at the local underground rental place (Atlanta: Videodrome!).
I feel bittersweet about it.
On the one hand, Moore's views are more than just interesting, they're possibly life changing. They are extremely unique and they help to bring together a lot of the threads he's explored in so many works.
On the other hand, the visuals of the film are largely pointless. Yes, I understand this is supposed to be a 'mindscape', but just putting backwards running footage of psychedelic colors doesn't add anything to what he's saying.
If you're interested in the views of Alan Moore but you also have a respect for film, I suggest you try to find a transcript of what he says over the course of this film. His essentially long monologue is extremely intriguing and is worth hearing/reading, but the film is not, in my opinion.
Interestingly enough, the bonus features are worth a rent...there are interviews with several key figures in the comic book world (Dave Gibbons, David Lloyd, and four others), whose interviews are much more straightforward and almost as interesting, without all the distracting and irrelevant 'mindscape'.
Bathtime (1997)
Everything a short film should be
What a wonderful short! The direction and photography is amazingly clear and well thought-out. The acting by Alan Cummings is fantastic--his emotions and facial expressions tell the story so well, they reveal the background behind this odd little story better than most words could.
This short has a great mood to it...the numerous fish shots and the antiquated furniture (classic phones!) really add a lot to the feel of it. What a great satire on suicide too! Cumming's character is made very deep in such a short time, his feelings are made so well known and he his seen as very complex even though it is only a short.
I highly recommend this short to anyone!
