Fish Tank is a 2009 British drama film directed by Andrea Arnold. The film won the Jury Prize at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival.[1] It also won the 2010 BAFTA for Best British Film. It was filmed in the Mardyke Estate in Havering,[3] the town of Tilbury, and the A13, and funded by BBC Films and the UK Film Council.

n Fish Tank, 15 year old Mia's life is turned on its head when her mum brings home a new boyfriend. Director Andrea Arnold casts the same unflinching, unprejudiced gaze and touches on the themes of her Oscar-winning short Wasp to create an original and unsettling tale for our age.

Following his acclaimed central performance in Hunger, Michael Fassbender stars opposite talented newcomer Katie Jarvis. Rounding out the principal cast are BAFTA-nominated Kierston Wareing, Harry Treadaway and 12 year old Rebecca Griffiths making her film debut. Winner of the Jury Prize, Cannes Film Festival 2009.

The mum in it is tidy. Liked it when she was prancing about in her pants with her tits showing through her top. Great arse!
 
This weekend has been cartoon film time snuggled on the sofa - Toy Story 3 and Up. Both of these had me in tears :)

Awww!
 
Anyone watched A Serbian Film yet?
I've read the plot and I have seen much worse than what it seems to contain. In fact most people on IMDB think its a very dark black comedy classic, rather than the most extreme thing ever made.

I'm aiming to watch Gasper Noe's film Enter the void soon. He got the idea after watching an early POV film on mushrooms, so I may have to watch his film on them.
It was premiered at Cannes 2009, so I want to know why its taken 18+ months to finally be released. Maybe it wasn't quite finished, or more likely couldn't find a distributor. Anyway it looks/sounds amazing.

I know quite a few people who've seen A Serbian Film & said it was total shite. A case of 3 people sitting in a room going "I'll think of a fucked up thing" "I'll think of something more fucked up" "I'll think of something even more fucked up than that" & so on then going "Right, let's make it into a movie".
 
Dead Man's Shoes. It's probably in this thread somewhere but I can't be arsed to look for it. Seems to really divide opinion but I thought it was super and found the portrayal of low-level small town low-lifes spot on. Weirdly I think it was marketed as a slasher film but it's a lot more poetic than that suggests imho.
 
Can't go wrong with Meadows.

Well you can actually 'Once Upon A Time in the Midlands' but we'll let that slide seeing as everything else he's done is fucking great!
 
A rough version of the film premiered at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival, but post-production work continued and it was not released in France until almost one year later. A cut down version will be released in the United States and United Kingdom in September 2010. The critical response has been divided.
A 163-minute version of the film competed in the main competition of the 2009 Cannes Film Festival. Noé said about the Cannes cut: "the film was like a baby of three months. I took it out of my belly to show it, flattered by Thierry Frémaux's invitation, but it was still in gestation. So I had to put it back into my belly, that is to say to tweak many details. A 155-minute cut was subsequently shown in September at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival. The final 154-minute cut premiered at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and was released in French cinemas on 5 May 2010 through Wild Bunch Distribution. The Japanese release followed ten days later.

Distribution rights for the United States were picked up at Sundance by IFC Films. Trinity Filmed Entertainment is the British distributor. The film will be released in both the United States and the United Kingdom on 24 September 2010.In both these countries the film will be distributed without reel seven. The running time will therefore be 137 minutes at 25 frames per seconds, or 142 minutes at 24 frames per seconds. Noé says that none of the cut material is essential for the film. He describes it as "some astro-visions, an orgy scene with Linda and the Japanese girl, the scene where you see [Oscar] waking up at the morgue and he thinks he's alive but he's not, and then the camera goes down the plughole where she's tipping his ashes."

The film will be released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc in France on 1 December 2010. Each edition will feature one 157-minute version of the film, and one alternative 174-minute version.

From wiki.

Yeah, Serpski does look like idiotic shite done just to be as extreme as possible crackhead, but so do others eg August Underground and Mordum (the only film I own that I have never managed to get more than half way through because its the most horrible thing ever filmed).

Wouldn't mind watching that again.

Seem to remember the ending was peculiar.
