The New Cult Canon
The Onion’s A.V. Club offer their list of the new cult classics. I need to watch The Room and The Limey’s commentary track,
a heated feature-length argument that couldn’t be further from the ego-stroking sycophancy of most tracks. It’s a case study in what happens to a script after it’s run through the sausage factory of production; even with a sympathetic director at the helm—Soderbergh championed Dobbs’ script for Kafka before making it his second feature, and the two remain friends—the writer will always get the shaft in the end.
