Aber insgesamt ...1 1/2 stunde oder so.*Gracia* hat geschrieben:ok wieder zum eigentlichen thema:dem film:

Und des is normal, dass es mit wenig anfängt..das steigert sich...ich hatte dann auch nach 10 mins oder so ne geschwindigkeit von 80 - 90 KB

naja, bittorrent hat eben ziemlich kurzlebige Files. wenn du da nicht gleich runterlädst, wenn noch viele Seeder dabei sind, is die Geschwindigkeit dann eher bescheiden.*Gracia* hat geschrieben:irgendwie,bei mir läuft des schon so lang,und schneller als 10 kb isses nie geworden.obwohl ich des an manchen tagen über 5 stunden hab laufen lassen!mhhhhhhh

Habt ihr schon das Script zum Film auf der offiziellen Seite gelesen? (http://www.efanguide.com/~amber//chance ... cript.html)
OMG, das ist ganz anders, als die DVD, die ich habe!
Viele Szenen fehlen, wie z.B. die mit ihren eigenartigen Nachbarn, einige sind anders z.B. ist Simon mit beim Treffen zwischen Chance`s Eltern in einem Restaurant (nicht auf einem Boot), anderse Szenen hab ich nie zuvor gesehen, wie z.B. das Ende (nachdem Simon sie ins Schlafzimmer trägt) oder die Szenen sind einfach zeitlich anders aufgebaut!
Kann sich das jemand vielleicht erklären?
Hab ich vielleicht ne falsche Version bekommen? Hat den Film schon irgendjemand auf nem Event gesehen und kann die abgedruckte Version bestätigen oder revidieren?
Das macht mir echt zu schaffen!

Also Joss hat ehrlich gesagt nicht die Musik gemacht, sondern nur den ersten Song geschrieben "Burn me down", performed by Grant Langston, der jenige der auch im Film zu sehen ist!
Von ihm (g.l.) sind ebenfalls die songs "one nignt stand", "susan", "life got hard" und "real man".
"Simon says" geschrieben und performt von Betty Navas
"Sweet hunchback" von michael hawlett, gesungen von amy hawlett.
Das sind alle songs!
Btw, auf der Thanks -liste steht als aller erster David Solomon!
Ist das nicht der, der im Abspann öfters mal hinter den Kulissen zu sehen ist, und Homer Simpson nachäfft?
Scheint ihr wohl ein bisschen geholfen zu haben!
gute nacht

Und da habsch noch was....eigentlich wollt ich den Orginalen Titel vonna FAZ haben o.O aber die wollen ja da tatsächlich 0,75 Ct. haben..und da es im Amberboard eh steht, (zwar auf englisch)..copy ich das hier mal rein
Ich find die Review net schlecht
[spoiler]. . . and you can congratulate yourself for sticking with it, because the film really is as good as that, making it worth your while. Because what has been such a challenge to obtain is one of those films that allow you to watch a very specific kind of growing-up-process at a very specific time in history in such a precise way that you cannot help but either be happy about being helped along the way in your own process of growing up, or be glad that you can enjoy the spectacle as an adult, since you' ve made it that far. John
Hughes "Breakfast Club" (1985), though flawed and somewhat saccharine, was one of those movies, so was Rochard Linklaters "Slacker" (1991) - the latter showed us a generation which for the first time after WW 2 had to face the prospect of slower ecenomic growth and less affluence than in their parents' time. Cameron Crowe' s slick relationship-comedy "Singles" (1992) thet took Linklaters idea, mixed it with some MTV-tested "grunge" and "Alternative"-Lifestyle-ingredients, cooked the whole stew using moderate heat and thus created an image for Teenagers, Twenty- and Thirtysomethings which stuck with us for a while, somewhat poor, without goals, and marketing people along with those trendy reality-TV-Show-producers quickly learned to exploit it for making those kids they invent seem more realistic. "Chance" on the other hand, that exceptional picture that you have to order somewhere over the rainbow, is also about young people hovering above the abyss of being unwanted. Its title can mean "luck" or "coincidence", but refers also to the heroine - a young women who keeps an open mind and heart, remains ready and willing to wonder and tries to get by in her Mid-Twenties. The role is played by Amber Benson, about whom you' ve read a portrait in this paper before (F.A.Z. march 14th, 2003) - as you know, she's everything but a leaf in the wind of fate. Ms. Benson knows what she can do and what she' s after, she wrote the film, directed it, wrote some music and produced the resulting Gesamtkunstwerk with her mother and sister. Different from the kind of newspaper-advice-column-problem-solving or calculated "Shell"-Yoth-Study-Stuff and generation-exploitation-junk-literature we've come to loathe, this film does not pretty things up. It's a comedy about a girl who is financially supported by her parents and in turn supports, as in does not collect the rent from, a young, somewhat aimless romantic named Simon (James Marsters). These people are not cardboard characters out of sports-shoe-advertising. They are being justified through the miracle of context: They do not just have problems but also Courage, Power, emotional skills, i.e.: everything the artist mainly responsible for the film brought to the set. Chance' s brother, whom we do not get to see in the entire movie, is present in subtle ways - his name is "Zero", their father must have thought it funny, imagining how he called after them: "Come here, Zero, Chance." Zero chance - no future: When these kids were conceived and born, something else was conceived and born - a music, lifestyle and attitude we call "Punk": Amber Benson was born in January of 1977, the year the Sex Pistols experienced their peak. The most surprising and charming thing about "Chance" is the way in which - most unusually for a film of this genre - the non-sentimental approach to life that Punk inaugurated is being put to richer uses than just those of showing off your own toughness, a spectacle into which Punk degenerated all too often all too readily. "Chance" looks at things without showing fear: Gender issues, sex troubles, one-night-stands, parental divorce, waking up next to dead people. The guy who does not pay rent gets "female stuff" for his quasi-landlady. He' s a good-looking bloke, but he does not smell pretty. When Chance' s mother drops by to confess her marital troubles, the two people who live in Chance's appartment confuse her with some role-playing which is never explained : Simon, in a dress and make-up, pretends to be Chance, Chance, with painted-on moustache, sits on the sofa and mouths off in boyish fashion. Bi- and Ambisexualities, playfoul polymorophous perversions, are the most normal thing in the world: Chance picks up a girl at a club, falls in love with a gay singer (the very winsome actor and singer Andy Hallet) who in turn falls for Simon. Meanwhile, Chance' s father has an affair with his teenage private secretary. The goings-on at Chance's appartment are being watched, not just by us, but also by a strangely voyeuristic neighbor who is obsessed by dead bugs. Questions are being asked: Why are girls not allowed to pick up a guy and dump him after some fun? Do parents creep us out or delight us when they re-seduce each other by quoting Shakespeare? How many cool cinematic tricks can you use on such a story on a budget? A lot: Chance talks into the camera, her voice accompanies pictures where she is not seen, the rhythm of the story is being counterpointed by smart stuttery syncopes, the music gets video-clip-treatment sometimes -Singer/Songwriter Grant Langston is on-, then off-camera singing his songs. In sum, this film shows you how to nurture your own ability to look at your life in a non-sentimental but funny way. As the weird bug-necrophiliac gets ready to move out of the building, he directs a wonderful compliment at Chance: No matter how bizarre things get for her, she always leaves the door open. That is exactly the mood of the film and the moral of its distribution story, which tells its tale, like a book subscirption, to "the people", those who are interested. Both worked out fine, the film and the distribution story. At showings, the film was a success, and the videos and DVDs are being ordered. So, to re-iterate the moral: it's about risk and luck, as well as the happy coincidences (of media history). It's a story to raise your spirits, for even at times of crisis, there are enough hearts who will listen to a tale like this. Or as Amber Benson herself put it in a recent interview: "Everything worked out much better than I had thought before."[/spoiler]
