Dirty Movie Club: Joe Versus the Volcano
The Movie
It was really really hard to pick a movie. After some thought I went with Joe Versus the Volcano. It came out in 1990 and stars tom hanks, meg ryan, and a bunch of other people.

The Synopsis
Yes its a romantic comedy starring tom hanks and meg ryan. it also happens to play on neitszchian existentialism, french new wave cinema, and fritz lang. or maybe not.


Why I Chose it
I was all set to drop the Igmar Bergman's Seventh Seal bomb or Truffaut's Jules And Jim or Easy Rider or some other movie that everyone agrees is pure genius but I figure the discussion that would follow would more or less involve everyone saying "wow! pure genius! ". Not that this wouldn't be fun. God knows I love those movies and would talk anyone's ear off about them.

No, this movie will definitely make for interesting discussion because half of y'all will love it , and half of y'all will want to kill me for your wasted two hours of life.


hopefully more of the former, not so many of the latter
