Dreams... or Nightmares?



"It's heavy. What is it?" - The Maltese Falcon, d. John Huston



"What is it? It's heavy." - The Bridesmaid, d. Claude Chabrol


It's also Day Three of the Claude Chabrol Blogathon taking place at Flickhead's. I plan to contribute a much better and bigger piece than this screengrab post but just wanted to point out the two shots anyway because whenever one movie makes me think of another movie and it isn't because it's churning out the same cliches over and over, it makes me feel good. Oh and in both cases, the answer to the question is it's the stuff dreams are made of, only the dreams in the second turn into nightmares. So just how far should you go for love? Tomorrow... the answer?
