[yours went away....]

Faves:

1.  This Woman's Work (gorgeous and fascinating "one-shot" illusion)
2.  Running Up That Hill (simple and atmospheric, w/ excellent choreography)
3.  Experiment IV (her finest mini-movie, especially for a big
          horror-film buff like me...)
4.  Babooshka (yum... anyhow, I had to have at least _one_ old one!)
5.  Sat In Your Lap (absolutely mad...)

Least Faves:

1.  Love & Anger (dull, and Gilmore looks like a bloated gasbag...)
2.  The Sensual World (she looks great, but the "here I am skipping through
          the woods in the snow" bit gets kind of old...)
3.  Hounds of Love (somewhat because of the lantern-jawed Dana Andrews impersonator,
          but mostly because it just didn't come anywhere near the imagery the song
          generated in my head.  Not "bad," per se, but very disappointing)
4.  Wuthering Heights (I suppose it was good for it's time, but now it just
          gives me a headache -- all those silly strobe effects...)
5.  Wow (new Hammersmith edit version).  Blech.  Could we at least have had
          some sort of unity between the assotted shots that attempted to tie
          them in with the song itself?  Instead, we just got slow fades
          between assorted slo-mo bits.  Very irritating...).

P.S.  Isn't this fun?  Makes me feel like a drooling fanboy of 16 again....
