Anyone ever see Baraka? Just 65mm footage set to music. Very moving and thought-provoking. Also the remastered Blu Ray looks amazing and is regularly used as a reference disc to show off home theaters.Originally Posted by Opermann
Baraka is excellent. There's a scene that always comes back to me - the crowd of monks all chanting "Dak! Dak!Dak!Dak!Dak!Dak!Dak!" together.
Along similar lines, Koyaanisqatsi blew me away the first time I saw it, and Latcho Drom is amazing.

yes for Baraka & Koyaanisqatsi both. The Dak! Dak! Dak! is Indonesian Kecak (Ketchak) & is one of my favorites. Seeing this performed live is incredible.
as for movies... +1 American History X. I'll add Amores Perros, Pi, Rabbit-Proof Fence, and City of God (one of my all-time fav films)... all powerful as in moving.
for powerful as in just f'd u up & can't sleep now.... Funny Games & Audition. If you watch Audition, note that I'm not recommending it per se... it's truly disturbing J-Horror.

Was blown away some months back when I watched "The White Ribbon" (Das weiße Band.) Incredibly powerful film, subtle, stark... really unique...Originally Posted by rach2jlc

Did you recommend it there? I just saw it because the little indy theatre around the corner from me had it on, and I was so surprised by how much I enjoyed it.
Glad you liked it as well!
