Great story telling excellent filming but I cannot seem to get totally into the story. Toni Servillo as Andreotti is excellent as well.
Maybe I just need to brush up on Italian Political history to get more into it

Question been raised, what would Tarkovsky do if he had 3d effects like Cameron had for avatar.
I strongly believe, judging by his background and how Russian cinema used to think, that it wouldn't ever be heavily used.
In modern Holywood cinema, cgi is used to disguise utter lack of talent and artistic worth. First time I saw those blue cgi creatures screaming some "for freedom" nonsence I understood that it is best not to bother at all.Originally posted by interest1I'm pulling you off my friends list if you don't put down the vodka.

Rented A History of Violence. Not too familiar with Cronenberg, have only seen (and enjoyed) Eastern Promises, to this day can't stomach sitting through all of Crash. Am interested to see how the film treats its subject matter, for some reason I never really associated Cronenberg as someone to make a straight up action flick although the sauna fight scene in EP was one for the ages.

I'm preparing myself for a round of Sátántangó. I don't even know if I ought to have any particular expectations for this one, I just assume I won't be able to get through it in a sitting. Absolutely loved Werckmeister Harmonies though. One of my favorite movies.
