Anyone see Marathon? I've seen the last 15-20min and don't get it. Can anyone explain it? Opinions on good,bad,ugly indies on IFC (recently jacked from our cable in Chicago) or Sundance...

Opinions on good,bad,ugly indies on IFC (recently jacked from our cable in Chicago) or Sundance... Joe Gioielli June 8th, 2004, 03:26 PM I've seen "marathon" twice and I still don't gt it. The announcer said it was symbolic film or something along those lines. What it is symbolic of I couldn't tell you. But I'll share what I did take away from it. I think it was shot on video, it looked very cold to me. I would have liked some DOF control and or a little grain or fuzz. I also think the director could have done a better job with the talent. She didn't act very naturally when she was alone in her apartment. She looked to me like a person who was trying to act natural whilst being observed. As for the plot, no clue. I like the docs the best, "Shalon Y'all", "Obstinent Memory", "Crumb" are some of my favorites. |
