I just think that Big Fish is a very heartfelt film that has alot of emotion running through it, which you'll either accept or run away from. It's not subtle with it either but I just warmed to it immediately, in spite of the fact that it's a very patchy flick.

I wanted to see it when it first came out but just never got around to it. I'm going to try and catch it now that you've reminded me.

You'll know if it's for you after the first 15 or so, but if you enjoy a bit of sentimentality and emotion I'd stick with it to the end.

By far Bernardo Bertollucci.

The Conformist is just movie heaven. The Last Emperor and Last Tango in Paris are essential viewing too.

Yep, he's a class act. Wouldn't be my fav fav but Conformist and Last Tango are great. The Dreamers wasn't too shoddy either.

Oh, and I want to watch 1900.

I saw a documentary on Sergio Leone recently. He was supposed to have been working on an epic movie about the siege of Leningrad not long before he died.

Gone too soon. :(
