Regarding your speech about "musical talent = because it makes more noise," let me explain it to you right away: the last piece that "the inventor of jazz" plays is a challenge to Novecento, as if to show him that he is also the fastest. That's why Novecento responds to the challenge in that way. Anyway, I recommend you rewatch the film because it seems you didn't understand ANYTHING AT ALL. "By choosing a city, a house, a woman, etc., one excludes other cities, other houses, and other women..." This is not at all what Novecento is talking about... he says that the possibilities are so infinite and the idea that the world has no end is so overwhelming that he prefers to stay on the ship, which he knows. Because the ship, like the piano, has an end: the piano has 88 keys, and on this, no one can mess with you... Rewatch the film; perhaps you'll understand a bit more...

"Legend: a narrative mainly of a religious or heroic nature, in which facts and characters, when not imaginary, are amplified and altered by fantasy and tradition, in a dual need for exaltation and exemplarity" from the Devoto Oli Dictionary of the Italian Language. PS: now do you understand why you could have spared us this childish invective?

You could have saved your "considerations about history," since both the book and the film are a FAIRYTALE. Now, certainly the film features details and scenes that are more cloying (for example, I find the idea of Novecento falling in love unnecessary), in addition to being way too long. Everything else, in terms of sentimentality and sweetness, is delivered by Morricone's music. The book has NOTHING cloying in it. Now, if you don't mind, I'll explain to you why you could have stuck your CONSIDERATIONS up your ass... I will explain the meaning, unknown to you, of the word "legend," copying it word for word from the Italian language dictionary. Here it is:

What nonsense...

Oh yes, debaser doesn’t understand your genius; and if there’s a pompous little brat, it’s you.

Certo! Inviami il testo che desideri tradurre e provvederò a farlo.

The review is perfect as it is; any additional words about this film would be a waste.

And here we agree: a ridiculous film that made history only for its gore scenes. X Pretazzo: Beautiful Carrie by De Palma, based on King. Like The Shining, Stand By Me, and Misery, after all...

*I am crap

Perhaps the most critical, important, and futuristic film in the entire history of cinema. You, on the other hand, seem like the usual person who wants to be contrarian but just ends up looking like an idiot. Like killgod who says that Pink Floyd are crap. PS: 2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, and The Shining are perhaps the most important films in the entire history of cinema. The young ones love this film not because it isn't a masterpiece but because they only grasp the message "violence-rape-violence" without understanding the rest. And they love it also because they want to give themselves a pretentious air of philosophical alternativity, but that doesn't take anything away from the film.
