During the grim, glum cacophony of images and sounds that constitutes the first few minutes of The Arrangement, a self-loathing advertising wizard (Kirk Douglas) with a stultifying marriage and a career focused on selling "Zephyr, The Clean Cigarette!" impulsively hits upon a spectacular method of committing suicide. Viewers would have been spared two hours of further flailing if he'd succeeded. Instead we get a combination psychodrama and Bildungsroman--at once crashingly obvious and fragmented to the point of incoherence--that attempts to frame the betrayal of the American Dream through the guilty/proud machismo, professional frustrations, and oppressive ethnic heritage of a very unappealing guy.

At least credit writer-director Elia Kazan, adapting his own bestselling novel, with honesty: the guy is, essentially, he himself. The once-great filmmaker hoped to reunite with Marlon Brando on the project; he wound up with Douglas, whose career-long image was the guy with the indomitable spirit no matter what ("I'm Spartacus!"). But dismay over Douglas's miscasting--which led to the miscasting of Faye Dunaway in a mistress role based on and intended for Barbara Loden--doesn't excuse the total mishmash. Scenes begin in the middle or break off without warning; some characters are introduced portentously, then abandoned or beaten as one-note Symbols. The technique is a mélange of ugly, puerile effects, including still photos absurdly sprung to life and a daydream sequence studded with BIFF! BAM! POW! comic-book titles. There's even a desperate dive into self-quotation, a snippet of Kazan's 1963 America America to establish that a character barely seen in The Arrangement is the aged version of the youthful protagonist of that exultant masterpiece.

For the record, the cast includes Deborah Kerr as Douglas's wife and Richard Boone as his terminally Old World dad. They didn't deserve to come off as badly as they do. --Richard T. Jameson

A Film Whose Time Has Come........2007-02-25

Panned and patronized at the time of it's initial release, Elia Kazan's adaptation of his best selling book THE ARRANGEMENT plays much better now than it did in 1969. Made after a 6 year hiatus from filmmaking at a time when movies were enjoying unheard of freedom due to the demise of the production code, THE ARRANGEMENT clearly shows that Kazan was still a director to be reckoned with. The basic premise was nothing new. A highly succesful businessman (Kirk Douglas) suffers a mid-life crisis and attempts suicide. How he and the other characters deal with the aftermath make up the rest of the story. Kazan has always been an actor's director and the film provides a showcase for the young Faye Dunaway as Douglas' mistress who gets him to reexamine his life but wants out to be with someone else. Deborah Kerr in her last major film appearance is superb in the difficult role of the wife who tries to understand what Douglas is going through but doesn't want to give up the rich lifestyle she's become accustomed to. Strong support is given by Hume Cronyn as the family solicitor who has plans of his own and from Richard Boone in a rare non-Western role as Douglas' ailing father. His slide into dementia is both heartbreaking and terrifying. Marlon Brando had originally agreed to play the lead but bowed out allowing Kirk Douglas who really wanted to work with Kazan to step in. While not stage trained like the other principals, he acquits himself well in an emotionally as opposed to a physically demanding role. The combination of raw emotions, alternating points-of-view including black humor, and touches of surrealism was ambitious then and still is today (think AMERICAN BEAUTY). The movie is not without its flaws. It runs too long and is occasionally sloppy in everything from editing to make-up but the powerful writing and intense performances make THE ARRANGEMENT provocative filmmaking nearly 40 years later. Called everything from a harrowing emotional ride to a self-indulgent mess (see the Amazon summary) it is ultimately for the home viewer to decide (my 4 star rating indicates where I stand). Kazan will always be a controversial figure because of his HUAC testimony in the 1950's but his greatness as a director cannot be denied and remains captured on film for all to see.

A Very Flawed Search for Truth.......2007-02-19

Elia Kazan has touched me deeply in many of his films. The Arrangement is not the most effective of Kazan's films, but he certainly tried very hard with this one to reach towards some important truths. I really dislike much of the technical side of this film (the poor process shots, the somewhat stilted acting, the sometimes quite silly sets poorly lit way too bright), but there is something moving about the film, rooted in the raw exposure of what looks to be his own soul. Imperfect films that reach so high should be respected.

Convoluted At Best.......2007-02-18

I don't remember why I pre-ordered The Arrangement, and I have no idea how well it was received when it was first released in 1969, but one viewing told me that this film was riding only on the name recognition of director Elia Kazan and the star quality of the leading actors.
One can only describe the plot here as convoluted at best. It took me three viewings to fully grasp what it was Kazan was doing here and even then there were a lot of unanswered questions. No doubt, the acting by Kirk Douglas, Faye Dunaway, and Deborah Kerr is very good, but I can't help but think that even they wondered about their parts.
I won't rehash the plot, but it seems that Douglas' character is profoundly disturbed and that everything he has to deal with after his wreck somehow sparks vivid memories of prior experiences. These memories spring immediately to life then fade back to reality adding to viewer confusion over why a particular episode is occurring. When Douglas' character was committed involuntarily to a mental hospital, all semblance of a coherent plot fell apart.
This movie is definitely not for everyone. If you like a strong psychodrama and can pay close attention to and can unravel this Gordian Knot of a storyline, then you may find the Arrangement very satisfying.
Though Douglas' Eddie Anderson is not an appealing character, one can't help but feel a certain amount of sympathy for him as he hits the skids. The last shot of him as he watches his father's casket lowered into the ground says a lot. Then there is the look of quiet contempt Deborah Kerr gives Eddie's mistress Faye Dunaway (Gwen) as she is lurking on the edge of the group gathered for the funeral. Its a powerful scene for sure.
There is nothing at all upbeat about The Arrangement. The somber score of David Amram brackets the movie. At the beginning, its notes are a harbinger of what you are about to see, at the end it confirms the viewer in the tragedy he or she just saw. Watch this one only if you yourself are not on the edge.

I'm Having A Breakdown SO YOU BETTER LISTEN TO ME!!!.......2005-05-31

This would have to be one of the worst movies that I have ever seen and I have sat through a lot of turkeys in my lifetime. It concerns an advertisng executive played by Kirk Douglas. Eddie is having a very bad Nervous Breakdown following an unsuccessful suicide attempt. Then he procedes to harrangue EVERYBODY he meets about his messed up life as if anybody could care less. Eddie is also carrying on an illicit affair with Gwen , played by Faye Dunaway. When Eddie is making love to his wife played by Deborah Kerr he is thinking about Gwen!!! I realize that millions of married guys all over the world do this but that don't make it right as the man once said.After about half an hour of watching this movie you get very tired of Eddie's whining and Ms. Dunaway makes the very intelligent observation that "the screwing I'm getting is not worth the screwing I'm getting". Gee. I felt pretty screwed after hiring this piece of junk from the Video Store for $3.50!!! I give this movie 5 stars because I kind of like Faye Dunaway although she has appeared in better films than this one.

Slow and boring.......2003-11-12

Maybe I just did not get it. I sat through this thing because I have been a fan of Miss Dunaway's for quite some time. It is hard to sit through and makes little sense. Kirk Douglas is old and is messing around with Dunaway behind his wife's (Deborah Kerr) back. Douglas rethinks his life and changes it. About the only reason to watch this movie is to see a young post-Bonnie and Clyde Faye Dunaway.

The broadcast series Melody of Oblivion (2004) is set decades after humanity lost a war to powerful, carnivorous monsters. People go about their daily lives, unaware that monsters control the world and demand frequent sacrifices of human children. High school student Bocca wants to become one of the Warriors of Melos who fought the monsters. Encounters with Sayoko, a runaway girl, and the warrior Kurofune lead to the discovery of his hidden abilities: A tatoo appears on his arm, from which he draws magical arrows to use against the monsters. Director Hiroshi Nishikori and his artists use color, cutting and visual imagination to infuse some excitement into the familiar plot elements. But the creative touches have to be balanced against the gratuitous "fan service" cleavage shots, and the resulting series is both interesting and frustrating. (Rated 16 and older: violence, violence against women, risqué humor, brief nudity, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon

Description

During the 20th century, the world experienced a large-scale war. A war between humans and monsters. Words could never describe the violent bloodshed of the war that the monsters had won. Time has passed and a new century has begun. And the people have forgotten that Melody? Life continued on as normal except for a mysterious sacrifice here and there. However, Bocca felt that this was wrong and when he heard of the Warriors of Melos, people who still rallied to defeat the monsters, he decided to become on as well. But this isn't an easy path and there was still much to be learned about the Melody of Oblivion.

Customer Reviews:

Very good. I strongly reccomend it!.......2006-01-26

This is an anime series that even anime fans would get into!
Pros:
Its humor is perfect! Not only do they have the blatant jokes that everyone would get, but they have those hidden jokes that not everyone watching the show will see, along with the jokes that people may see but not get. It's a nice blend of comedy without filling the whole thing with laughter or without makeing the series unrealistic. I don't mean that this scenario is realistic in the first place, what I mean is that you won't see any comedy that people probably wouldn't normally see in Bocca's situation like the type you might see in those series with the really stupid characters.
Another good thing is the actualy plot. It makes you think enough to enjoy watchign it, but it also doesn't make you think too much to the point that your investigating. In every single, err, should I say event (since some last more than one episode) the watcher will be able to see, not only Bocca's point of view of trying to help the humans, but you are also able to see how the humans are dealing with this and their opnion and view on the whole thing. This allows the watcher to leanr more about the minor characters that only show up for a couple of episodes.
I hope this reviw helped!

Huh, kinda weird...but good.......2005-05-22

First of all, I'm writing this before the DVD is released in the U.S. so I don't know anything about the special features or English dub (if there is any).

I didn't really know what to expect when I started watching this series, so I wasn't really all that shocked when I first saw it (as many people seem to be). Its very hard to catergorize this series but I suppose I would call it action/comedy. After losing a war to the "Monsters", humanity is not well off, they are in constant danger of attack unless human sacrifices are offered to the "Monsters". Bocca, the main character is a Meros Warrior, he and other Meros Warriors like him have the job of fighting the "Monsters" and protecting humanity. The show follows Bocca as he and his allies pursue these groups of "Monsters" and learn more about them.

The show has a very deep story and one really finds themselves paying close attention to it as it develops to find out more about the situation humanity is in and how society copes with it. What greatly helps you to feel the emotion of each scene is the shows very unique art style which relies heavily on symbolism. I admit, though to sometimes being slightly thrown off by it, and having to rewatch certain scenes to grasp whatever message they were trying to convey.

Great music in this series, I recommend getting the OST if you can find it anywhere.

All in all, very good series, although the quality is kind of inconsistent. Some episodes are fantastic while others are somewhat boring without very much plot development. Some people will tell you they hate the ending, but I really think it was great...so yeah, go watch the series.

Very Allegorical, With Gratuitous Fanservice.......2005-04-09

Melody of Oblivion is an anime series rife with cultural references. Everything from Zen Archery and Bushido to Revelations from the Bible, stories of Greek mythology, and images from the Garden of Forking Paths can be seen in the series. Therefore, readers who view this anime without being widely read risk missing prominent references and being unable to appreciate the depth of the tale. [Note: I am the author of the Wikipedia stub about MoO that bears the above introduction.]

Essentially, if you don't like bleeding colors, mystery tales, and plot twists galore, stay away from this series. If horror or fanservice bother you, you should probably stay away as well. Due to the Chutulthoid horror that monsters in the series radiate, random bystanders shriek and lose their sanity (and have additional reactions, which are revealed in the plot) whenever they see them. There is therefore a lot of screaming as well.

It is difficult to fully categorize MoO's all-encompassing style. It can be watched for the appreciation of its unique character and monster designs, for the exquisite timing of its battles, or for the tale itself. The tale is romantic comedy, tragedy, gothic horror, heroic saga, war story, courtly epic, and myth at different points in the series. Overall, it can be considered an allegory about the difficulties that heroes or principled people have in life.

SEE THIS FILM.
No one should be offended by the infidelity in this film. There is no gratuitous or unnecessary sex in this film. In fact they don't show anything more than kissing. The main characters, Luanne and Jake are engaged but he cheats. He does it to makes sure he isn't missing out or whaterever. The point is, he was wrong to do it. He realizes that he isn't missing out and that he has no doubt about wanting to marry her. He confesses and wants her to date another man to make it even so they can move on. It's twisted but I understand why he would do it. The problem is that it's a overly simplistic, shortsighted way to resolve it, so it goes further than he expects. The thing I loved about this film is that it forces her to examine her expectations and fantasies about love, marriage and morals realistically. There was no sugarcoating or ignoring real human emotions. In this movie they didn't make any technical distinctions based on where they were in their relationship. Like, "she can get over it because they were on a break" She had to deal with the reality that he made a selfish decision that ruined their perfect record. She had to make a hard decision about what she wanted now. They didn't patronize women by having her go out on a string of wacky dates with crazy men and go running back gratefully to her cheating ex-fiancee. And they didn't have her change her morals dramatically. She learned some things without totally succumbing to cynicism and lowering her standards to fit in a unworthy man. Because it bugs me when women act like any man is better than none so they accept someone who they can't even discuss with their girlfriends without being ashamed. The story was refreshing and it didn't seem low budget.This looked 'real' and real was looking pretty nice. They had nice apartments and clothes. The actors were attractive and dressed suitably for their setting. They didn't seem unreal at all. I wish Billie James was in something else because I was impressed.

Indecent Proposal........2003-03-16

This could only happen in a movie. Jake and Luhann are together and ready to marry, at least Luhann is. Jake, during a bout with cold feet and wanting to be sure he is making the right decision, has an affair with another woman. In order to be fair to his intended, Jake confesses to Luhann, who ends the relationship. Jake then gives his fiancee a deal based on payback: go out on dates with other men and find one man to sleep with. After it's out of her system, then come back to him and they can resume their relationship leading up to marriage. As if his proposal wasn't bad enough, Jake actually becomes overconfident and states to his best friend Bridges that no matter how mad she was, she was still devoted to him and this will blow over with her forgiving him and they both move on to happily ever after. What Jake doesn't realize is that his he is banking his own selfish dreams on the one thing that Luhann can't be sure of anymore-her heart. Among the many enjoyable players in this twisted game is the lead actress, Billie James, who plays Luhann with all of the strengths and weaknesses of a woman willing to accept a proposal of this magnitude and working thru all of the drama that comes with the contract. A light, entertaining piece of work.

Contamination of any sound intellect.............2001-01-14

This movie is about some guy who has a one night stand. He owns up his betrayal, to his then, supposed to be future wife. In his guilt he tells her that maybe she should date other people, not thinking that she would actually have the nerve to do it. Boy was he wrong. I'll admit that after I started to become aware of what type of movie this was and how much it stunk, I "flipped" through the chapters. This movie showcases infidelity and sexually immoral behavior. This movie should not only be offensive to just African Americans, but to anyone who has a thread of descency or family values.
