WA: Umm. CB: Are you saying umm or mmm? WA: O: Does it bother you to be potentially pegged as the head of a new movement? I know there’s a Film Comment article that mentions you as part of something called “the new sincerity.” Do you pay attention to any of that? WA: Well, I don’t know. Who else is in “the new sincerity”? O: I don’t know. I think it’s just you at this point, and they’re waiting for people to line up behind you. WA: Oh, well, I’m not waiting for that line to form, and I don’t expect it to. I don’t know if there’s ever going to be much of a movement in that direction. It sounds like one that could be boring for a lot of people. O: Why is that? WA: I don’t know. That’s probably just some glib answer. Movement? I would be into a movement. But I’m really not aware of any movement. O: So you don’t plan to draft a Dogme 95-style statement. WA: It sounds like fun, but it also sounds like something I would be more likely to do when I was 14 years old. CB: Are you saying Dogme 95 sucks? Because I’ve never heard of it. I did see Dogma, though, with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. That sucked, didn’t it? Would you say you could have made a better movie when you 14? CB: Cool. 90

movies/fastrunneratanarjuat.html The Fast Runner Atanarjuat (2002) Inuit Indian Director (need to actually put guy’s name here) Finally, the Inuit Indians have gotten off their asses and given us the great film we deserve. It’s definitely worth seeing. It’s epic for the most part, but with a sense of intimacy, which is no doubt helped along by the upclose, hand-held filming methods. It’s compelling, and if you take a big wizz before starting, you won’t even notice that it’s roughly—it’s three frigging hours long! This movie boasts a number of items not commonly seen in Los Angeles including seal oil, genuine walrus tusks, and people snarfing raw caribou meat. Well…I said commonly. 91
