TFR Ep. 96: Melancholia, Cave Of Forgotten Dreams, What Are The Odds?
Chris Scalzo
Nope. No 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' this week. Turns out it's not playing here in Connecticut just yet. So instead we get the opportunity to see the latest from the mildly controversial director, Lars Von Trier and his latest, 'Melancholia'. Does this tale of a struggling sister relationship painted against a back drop of a global apocalypse deliver all the smiles it portends to? After that we get to see what all the fuss is about regarding some old, and I mean OLD cave paintings in France with Werner Herzog's 'Cave Of Forgotten Dreams'. Will the film be as beautiful as its subject matter? We'll review the big releases on Blu-Ray & DVD, then wrap it up with relatively rousing edition of What Are The Odds. We're The First Run. Now with less genital mutilation!
