You've hit the nail on the head, but from what I know, no one besides Verdone had a say in the choice of actors; he actually went out with a lantern to select about 90% of basically unknown actors. Verdone's best? I wouldn't know, among the best for sure, for me if we’re talking about the films of his "maturity," it’s a toss-up between this one, "Maledetto il giorno che t'ho incontrato," and "Al lupo al lupo."

There are many parallels that can be drawn between the 60s generation and the 90s generation to highlight their differences: one that just came to my mind is from "Alice Through the Looking Glass" to "Alice in Chains."

The point, with the early Beatles, is that they (and the world along with them) changed so much (in every sense) in just a few years that obviously if you compare the stuff before Rubber Soul to that from that album onwards, it’s clear that some—wrongly—underestimate those early records without realizing the musical-cultural-social-historical impact of those initial albums. It’s obvious that an album like the White Album (taking the one I prefer) is superior by a few galaxies compared to this, but you can’t ignore the context in which their first two albums were recorded: it was a world still in black and white, and they suddenly colored it (with psychedelic shades, if you know what I mean).

I've always heard terrible things about them and I've never approached them: then if they start playing pseudometal I move even further away. The choice of name certainly doesn't help matters either 😁 But that foot fetish cover will definitely appeal to us foot enthusiasts, right @[IlConte]?

I think their huge limitation was that they kept repeating themselves endlessly after '97 (they were repetitive before too, but there was still a palpable vibe in their pieces, the kind that still makes you feel emotions years later when you listen to songs like Champagne Supernova or Don't Look Back in Anger) with inspiration that kept declining steadily (aside from some nice moments afterwards, obviously). Simply put, I believe they lacked the artistic talent necessary to truly progress, and after too much rehashing the same old warmed-up dish, it became increasingly less effective (of course), and many people get fed up and stop following you.

I don't know, I think rock is above all a lifestyle so universal that it will be "felt" and then listened to in some way forever. The live, well, one of the greatest live performances ever, maybe the greatest (how many times have I said this), gets a 3.5 here too.

I always feel embarrassed when asked which I prefer between Parklife and The Great Escape, because for me they are on the same qualitative level, essentially (which has remained unchanged since Modern Life is Rubbish, with some dizzying peaks). So, 5 for the album, while the review could have been better (3.5 rounded). My beloved Coxon has undoubtedly been the key to Blur's turning point (in sound) and 13, but their strength lies precisely in the two souls of the band (Albarn/Coxon), so different and so complementary.

Time out of mind is probably my favorite by Dylan (I don't know them all, but many). I had already read something about this and they were talking about it as yet another milestone of his, which was indeed anticipated by Time out of mind. I will definitely listen to it and review it. You’re great!

I also really liked the next one; in any case, he has produced great pieces even after that. Given the TBT, it seems to me that the message is definitely broader and deeper.
