Franco is flawless as Alien, a white gangster with dreadlocks, gold teeth and a ton of money. The film is a lot of fun and will definitely become a cult classic in time.Lights Camera Reactionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01645803803878024637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-18760259246324177052014-01-03T20:22:26.134+01:002014-01-03T20:22:26.134+01:00Thanks, Vern.

YES! I lov..."Best costume design - Duh."<br /><br />YES! I loved that. But really... I completely agree with you on all of this. Spring Breakers deserves so much more awards attention than it has been getting.

Well, as much as I want to watch 12 Years a Slave and Dallas Buyers Club, I'm sort of annoyed by them in the way that I feel they've pocketed their awards before they were even released. Sure, they're probably great movies but they just appeal to a wider audience than Spring Breakers - which I think is equally as great. But I'll get back to that once I've actually seen those movies.Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094234448852441633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219108510988412397.post-26793565448824198332013-12-07T11:50:44.064+01:002013-12-07T11:50:44.064+01:00That GIF took me ages, it's the first I ever s...That GIF took me ages, it's the first I ever successfully created ;)<br /><br />Oh, I'm happy to hear you loved Spring Breakers too!

It was SUCH a surprise of a film, and a film that not a lot of people "got" so you really have to outline it for the haters to understand it's cultural significance. I agree with all your 'please consider' categories, but after seeing movies like 12 Years a Slave or Dallas Buyers Club, I don't think Franco's performance holds a candle near performances like in those films, you know? He's undoubtedly good, but not great.

Definitely a firm favourite of mine at this point and by miles the most creative and innovative output in 2013.<br /><br />It should get all the awards for everything and anything it can, but here is me wishfully thinking!<br /><br />Great post and loving the GIF, too.

I'm pretty certain it's my favourite looking film of the year. It's impossible to choose a favourite shot. I also love the editing and Franco, like duhssss.

This film would be absolutely perfect for that category which is usually all boring period pieces that look pretty much the same.
