Blake Edwards Breakfast At Tiffany's

incredible, I agree with Poletti! But it's a nice comedy, come on.

William Friedkin L'esorcista (versione integrale)

4 mar 07

Voto:

the unseen integral, for the original I remember over an hour of absolute boredom followed by ten solid and splattery (or vomit-inducing, it's the same) minutes? During that hour of boredom where nothing happens, at one point a friend of mine somehow caught the "famous" subliminal frame (http://www.ccsg.it/Pic-1.jpg), for which he coined the phrase "you have to catch the horror." As if you cared at all, by the way. But does the integral deserve a watch or is it more or less the same?

Jim Jarmusch Down By Law (Daunbailò)

4 mar 07

Voto:

As for Allen: I like Jarmusch, but he has never blown me away, even though Dead Man is a great film. This is entertaining, but it's monopolized by Benigni. However, I scream for ice cream is a classic.

Ruggero Deodato Cannibal Holocaust

4 mar 07

Voto:

For me, it's a little flick that still has its good moments, like the ending. But it's weak for a lot of other reasons—actors, screenplay, final moral lesson. A cult b-movie. There’s a lot to say about the Cannibal-Blair Witch relationship, if you want. In my opinion, while the inspiration is obvious, the execution is of a whole different level. I’ve already confessed that I really enjoyed the Blair Witch Project (which many consider garbage), watched it many years later with some huge biases.

Woody Allen Annie Hall

4 mar 07

Voto:

I have a strange relationship with Allen. He often makes me laugh until I cry, but none of his films have ever seemed like masterpieces to me. Me and Annie is nearly unanimously regarded as his peak along with Manhattan, and for example, the McLuhan gag is cinematic history, but overall, while you can't deny his class as a comedian, I must say that as a filmmaker he convinces me much less (though watching his films is almost always a pleasure, that's another story).

Marco Ferreri La grande abbuffata/La grande bouffe

Wow, you mention a movie and it gets reviewed on the spot! Great film, dark, oppressive, and deadly. One of the toughest movies ever made in Italy, I think.

Blake Edwards Hollywood Party

28 feb 07

Voto:

It's definitely entertaining, and Sellers is a genius. However, it's not a masterpiece for me, even though it's absolutely one of the best examples of comedic cinema. But, and I say this will be considered heresy by many, I laugh more with many episodes of The Simpsons.

Stanley Kubrick Il Dottor Stranamore. Ovvero come imparai a non preoccuparmi e ad amare la bomba

28 feb 07

Voto:

Well, you all said it. When Kubrick talks about war, no matter how he approaches it, he's a genius. I struggle to decide which is better among three enormous films like Dr. Strangelove, Full Metal Jacket, and Paths of Glory. And then there's Sellers, my god. Anyway, it's clear that the cinema bubble had to burst sooner or later on Debaser.

Bernardo Bertolucci Ultimo tango a Parigi

28 feb 07

Voto:

Well, Burns, you're starting from the assumption that this is the best. For me (and for many, I see, I didn't think so), it's not. Then I don't think anyone doubts the central role of Italian cinema from back in the day.

Bernardo Bertolucci Ultimo tango a Parigi

28 feb 07

Voto:

I don't really like it much either, at least it's better than that monstrous bore of 900. Bertolucci just doesn't sit well with me. Great cinematography, great soundtrack, great Brando and great Schneider, but it doesn't excite me. When it comes to the genre of "decadent trash in a room," infinitely better are La grande abbuffata and Salò, which are drier and deeper. imho, of course.
