howardhawkshollywoodannex: Man Bites Dog (1992) is number 792 on Halliwell’s Top 1000Editor John Walker wrote “It is not an easy film to watch or enjoy, but it is a remarkable, if sometimes repellant, feature, questioning not only an audience’s pleasure in watching violence but also the obsessive intrusion of the media into private lives.”My rating - well below average. Somehow I don’t believe that Halliwell would have appreciated this film.The film was co-written and co-directed by Remy Belvaux, who was born in Namur, Belgium and had only three credits, including two shorts 1987 and 1990. He committed suicide at the age of 39. The main character. played by Benoit Poelvoorde, was also born in Namur. Ben has 66 acting credits, his first three being the Belvaux credits, to three films currently in production. -- source link
