@galakordi you're right, there were three others, but what happened was that at the time I had read the book and knowing the Coen brothers, I awaited their treatment with trepidation. However, as a baconensor, I was surprised this time by the rigor of the brothers. I commented on all three reviews, but reading the comments and various interpretations expanded my impression, which has always been the same since the first time I saw the film. I wanted to respond in a more detailed way to fusillovshowdy's review, especially to fusillo who emphasized the incongruity of a character like Chirurgh, but I ended up with a comment of 2800 characters that would have been ridiculous to post as it was. So here is this long "impression" of the film.

As for the Pink Floyd issue, just (re)listen to a piece like "One million billiont of..." from "Oh my gawd!" and suddenly you'll see the light.

Captain, just watch that in the end you find yourself with that reading; mine wasn’t a discourse on individuals, and I’m sorry if I gave that impression. It’s clear that the sense of guilt isn’t just Moss’s but that of an entire nation that has lost its way, as indicated in the dream by Sheriff Bell’s father, with the torch lighting the path through the mountains. That Chirurgh is not the conscience but the "malevolent monster" born from the attempt to stifle it by Moss, I believe I have already pointed out in my comments to the other reviews. But it’s a film and a novel that lends itself, as Nick says, to different metaphors. Other interpretations are welcome (or not, Bjorky?)

Poletti, what a bullshit response; television, not the computer. I can only tell you that we organize retrospectives here that show past films, including Ben Hur, at the CINEMA, and I assure you (but I don't think it needs me to say it) that it's a whole different experience compared to television. What I meant is that There Will Be Blood has such a POWERFUL VISUAL force that it loses so much on the small screen. And I have to tell you something: I'm tired of arguing with you when you're always teetering on the edge from lofai to cisei (to put it in Bugo's words).

Of course it is so tollani, and I wonder who will ever have the courage to make a film from the cruelest, most epic, bloodiest, most incredible (to me) novel by McCarthy, which is "Blood Meridian." I'm afraid it would only take the Peckinpah of Sierra Charriba or The Wild Bunch, and Sam is no longer here.

"...I bet that in a few months you will find another film to which you will give a landslide 5." God willing, Poletti, it means that cinema is still capable of moving us despite the fact that seventy years have passed since Eisenstein had Russian lances pierce the backsides of Teutonic knights. Or are you one of those who hope the opposite? And how can you judge There Will Be Blood if, as you say, you watched it downloaded from the web on your little computer screen?

But who the hell cares if this movie will be remembered in a year or two? The important thing is that I had an incredible time watching it (like the others who rated it highly) and thinking back on it. Something that didn't happen for Titanic and The English Patient, which personally bored me to tears. I thought about it, I looked at others' opinions, gathered my own, and posted my impressions. If you liked them and they gave you some reason to be interested or a new perspective on the film, I’m happy. Period. Fuck the intense re-evaluation (which assumes a current underestimation just of its own) that Poletti keeps babbling about. Cia' pole' cia'.

The judge is absolutely right, Alessioiride & co. take Starblazer way too seriously, a guy who claims he never watches MTV yet is super informed about all the bands and videos that air, who says he doesn't care how people dress and then mocks Ozzy for what he's wearing on the cover of Sabotage, who places Wolfsbane and Litfiba on the same level as Sabbath and Alice in Chains... a perfect jerk.

Poletti, you’ve really annoyed us with the English patient; only a wretched shoemaker like you could think it was great cinema to be remembered over time. It made me shit entire volumes of snacks & paperbacks as if they were the company books of Boldini & Stocchetti perfect transports (from Totò - Those Who Stop Are Lost).

don't overthink it, try to get "A Simple Plan" (filmed about a decade ago) by Sam Raimi, who is a friend and collaborator of the Coen brothers. You'll be amazed at how the questions you're asking now find answers in that film. A snowy USA provincial town "a la Fargo" and three outsiders (a clerk, the slow brother, and an unemployed man) who find a duffel bag with three million dollars in a small plane that crashed in the snow...
