The word "youth" in this film, refers to "surpassing maturity", that is, when a person matures past the ages of their proper chronological age. This movie is one of those "youths" and is a must for anyone looking to see a more mature take on a gay/lesbian relationship. On the surface, there are many problems, and a whole lot of questions, that the two main characters face, both their wives, but also their friends and most importantly their parents. At the core of it all, is the need to move on and face the reality that a "gay marriage" doesn't mean the end of a relationship. The movie is about moving on and making a fresh start, in order to have a better future in life. Also, the movie is a very well done representation of the issues faced by gays in the time of the Civil Rights Movement. This movie is worth a viewing and is an excellent example of a more mature gay/lesbian movie.

It's hard to do an Italian movie with some kind of difference. Everyones beautiful, but there's something missing that everyone can relate to. This film is a unique, very personal and touching movie, with the personae of the characters much more true to life. The interactions between the characters are so real, so realistic and so much funny. It's like a modern version of "Al Pacino" or "Danny De Vito" for the West. The history is fascinating, and the story takes you back in time, to the time when the Italian people were united, when they fought for the independence, and to the time when they were still trying to form an empire. So in this respect the movie is a masterpiece. Even if you don't like Italian films, you will find something in this movie, you'll be moved. 10/10.

I have seen this movie three times. I feel like I am living the story of a great movie. The most important thing I learned from this movie is that you can never go wrong with a great story. It is not about a great movie, it is about a great story. The acting is great, the music is great, the cinematography is great, the story is great. The movie is a great story. I would not recommend this movie to anyone, unless you have never seen a movie before, and you want to see a movie that is worth the time. I am a huge fan of Fellini, and I would recommend this movie to everyone who wants to see a great movie. 9/10

I've seen this movie 3 times and every time I am moved to tears. It is a beautiful movie. I've seen it twice in the cinema and I will watch it again and again. I can't stop thinking about this movie. I have to admit that I had a hard time understanding the last scene. I can understand it and I know that the director was trying to convey the idea that when a person has a hard time understanding something, it is because they are not able to understand it. I'm not sure what the director was trying to say, but it was a great movie and a must see for everyone. I can't find any fault with this movie. I really recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a good movie and have a good cry. This movie will keep you thinking about it for a long time. 10/10

As the title suggests, this film is about a guy in search of a lost film. I'll admit that I wasn't sure what to expect. What I got was a film that was so perfectly written and acted that it was difficult to not be absorbed in it. The story is about a young man who is looking for a lost film. He has never seen it, and he is asking for it. He has a few friends who are willing to help him find it, and a few people who are willing to help him pay for it. This film is so beautifully written that I can't say anything else. It is so perfectly acted that I can't think of anything negative to say about it. I can't wait to see this film again.

As the movie begins, we see the world's finest acting talent, in the most heart wrenching scenes. We see great beauty and the destruction of nature, which is beautiful. We see the human spirit that we live everyday is capable of greater things. We see the inspiration for the great film, which all of us should see. We see the desire to live. We see how the human spirit can overcome. We see the amazing art of the late great Fellini. The greatest art of all, which was dedicated to Fellini's finest art.

This is a wonderful, beautiful film. I loved it. I really did. I love it. The film is about a boy, who is being bullied at school. He is the star of the school, but everyone knows him as the "boy who cries." His family is on the verge of losing their home. So, he is being bullied because of his personality, and he can't stand it. His mother, (Helen Hunt), and father (Christopher Plummer), try to help him. But, it doesn't work. The film is full of beautiful images, and the acting is brilliant. This is a film I would recommend to anyone. It is a film that has a message, and that message is so beautiful. I give this film a 9 out of 10.

*SPOILERS* *SPOILERS* This movie really shows what it means to be a true artist. With the greatest directors, and stars in Hollywood, it's hard to keep up with what's really going on. With Abbas, it was like watching one of his documentaries. This movie really shows how his life really is. I wish I knew a little more about him. I wish I knew who he was working with and what they were doing. I wish I could have known what he was doing when he was a kid. This is a really good movie, and it is a must see for anyone who loves a movie, or if they are just interested in watching a great film.

Easily one of my favorite films of all time. I have watched it numerous times and always catch something new that I had not noticed before. Some films are great simply because of the nostalgia they bring to a person's youth, and there are many films like that. There are some films that make you think "Why didn't I think of that in the first place?" and many films that make you think "How much better could I have made it if I had only put some thought into it." This film has all of those elements and many more. The acting is great. James Woods has done a fantastic job in portraying a large portion of the characters. He truly deserves an Academy Award nomination for this role. His performance is one of the best acting I've ever seen. I can't say enough about it. The direction is also very good. I can't say enough about how great it is. The movie does not seem like it is trying to be a dramatic film. It seems like it is just trying to capture a dream. When I watched this movie for the first time, it was still at a very slow pace. I think this helped me appreciate the film even more. I think this movie is just too good to not be enjoyed by anyone. I have recently read that there are two versions of the movie, one with a different version of the ending, and one with the ending the way the director wanted. The movie is also extremely difficult to find, I believe because of the movie's quality. It is one of those rare films where it seems like the right film is impossible to find. I have found a copy of the movie and am trying to find a copy of the movie I have the rights to, but I can't seem to find it. It's really hard to find, and if I can find a copy, I will find a copy. I recommend this film to anyone.

The story of this film is amazing. The end. It is great. Everything is excellent. The performances of the leads are magnificent. The cast also includes Steve Coogan, who is absolutely wonderful, and the wonderful Joseph Fiennes. But in my opinion, the best actor is Bill Murray. He played this role of the main character with perfection. I recommend you to see this film if you can.

A movie is a visual representation of our life. Our emotions are transferred from one person to another in the form of a cinema. We are transported to the future and become immersed in this journey of life. Sometimes it seems that this journey is full of all the emotions. This movie is one of those rare movies that give us the ability to take a journey with a friend and to share the experience. This movie can be described as a poem or a painting. The performance of the actors are so perfectly blended that one would not even realize that they are acting. This movie is just about one person. A man named Mettaweip. Mettaweip is a man who has all the emotions. Every emotion of love, anger, sadness, happiness and even fear. But at the same time, he has this different thing. A hidden part of his being that doesn't make the public notice. It is like he is just like us, a human being. When Mettaweip finds a book written by another man, he reads it and he sees what this other man is going through. This man is Owaisi, a man who is also a prisoner in a prison and he was released after a period of six years. Owaisi is still the same Mettaweip. They meet up again and they become friends. He tells him that he is going to leave prison and he goes to Mettaweip. This makes Mettaweip feel very happy and optimistic. Mettaweip tells Owaisi that he has to leave prison to go to America. This is because of his conscience. The movie is about how they meet and get to know each other. They go to America and Mettaweip realizes that he has not got anything to live for. He becomes so happy that he loves everything. Everything that he loves is gone. In his case, the most important thing that he has is his love for his father. He thinks that he is the only one who loves his father and that he has to do the best to protect him. His father is in prison because he broke his arm and Owaisi agrees to go with him to America. At the same time, Owaisi sees that he has lost everything and he is a prisoner in his own country. When Mettaweip sees the book of the man who was released from prison, he sees the true meaning of life and he thinks that his life is ending and that he is going to die. He finally realizes that his life is empty and that he should leave it and go to another place. The only thing that he has left is his love for his father. Owaisi is still the same Mettaweip and they go together to the USA. They see that there is a lot of people waiting to go to America. But when they go to America, they find out that they have a lot of problems. They come in contact with a lot of different people in their life and in a very strange way, they learn to respect each other and to live peacefully. This movie is about how people are people and how they can be really happy in a world that is constantly changing. It is a very touching story and it makes us ask ourselves the question "What would I do?" "What would I do?" It makes us think about our own lives and about the world. This is the kind of movie that makes

I found it to be quite good. There were moments when I found myself listening to the soundtrack of a period film as I was watching the film. I also found it quite moving to the story. I like that the story moved forward and you could see the action unfold as it happened. I didn't find it all that hard to follow as I did not have a lot of knowledge of any of the facts involved. I enjoyed the acting of Hugh Jackman and Amy Adams. They were wonderful. I liked the way the story moved. There was a fair amount of violence and action. I found the amount of gore to be a bit excessive. There was a fair amount of nudity and the sex scenes were not always graphic. I don't think it was necessary to have it in all the scenes. I thought that the story was moving, the music was engaging and it had a strong plot. I was also happy that the ending was well done. I think it was a nice way to end the film. I would recommend this film to people who are into films that have great acting, interesting stories and a story that moves forward and I think that's what I liked about it.

To me the film is just about perfection. It takes a very old story and it has a very modern and sophisticated feel to it. When I first saw this film, it was with some friends and this is how we looked at it. "Oh this is just great!" is the only word we could come up with. We liked it because we like films that have a good story and are also very well made. When I saw it for the first time, we also looked at it in a very intellectual way. This film, because of the fact that it is the first film from the director of 'The Emperor's new clothes', a film that is supposed to be a classic, is in a way very traditional. This is a film that's a story that can be told many times over and that has already been told in other films. It has a pretty simple story but at the same time, it's not boring or dull. For me, it's one of the best films of all time. I love it and I think that anyone who loves films should definitely see this film.

I have been a fan of many of the directors in this film and especially their four prior collaborations. While I find it hard to find the humor in all of their films, I do enjoy the self-referential quips. It is my firm belief that this film will change the world of film-making forever. Its almost impossible to predict what will be funny, but I'm confident that anyone who has seen this film is going to be laughing all the way to the end. Perhaps I will be the first to admit it, but I love this film and am still laughing every time I watch it. I have seen many people declare that they hate it, but I see it as a great piece of art. If anyone finds anything offensive or wrong with this film, I would like to ask them to look at the whole picture and see that it is a metaphor of our times and the many injustices and tribulations we endure on a daily basis.

As a child, I did not know what I wanted to be when I grew up. My mother, on the other hand, had an idea of what she wanted to be. She was an art student, and her ideas about what she wanted to be and what she wanted to do were at the core of her life. She was not afraid to express her thoughts about her dreams. Her ideas and her dreams were not driven by any one thing, but rather by a combination of a desire for art and a desire to do something special with her life. This movie does a wonderful job of showing us how her dream of a life in art and her dream of a life in art were intertwined. The movie, while it is not a comedy, does have some laughs. The story is very realistic, and the actors play their roles very well. I recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in art and dreams.

i saw this movie last night and i have to say it was incredible! i can't describe the movie, there is no way i could even do that! the movie is based on a book, it shows us what it was like in Nazi Germany. the director gave us an amazing portrayal of what was going on in the Nazi party at that time. i am from New York and have grown up with movies, and this one is on my top 10 list! if you haven't seen it, you have missed a very important film. a movie that has the power to touch you in a way that you never expected it to.

I have to admit that I was not expecting much of this movie. I was very disappointed by the lack of a plot, and the fact that the actors are not very good. But I am so glad that I watched it. It was great! I love this movie. I think that it is the best film of all time. The story is about a man who is traveling through the country looking for his wife. The film is very beautiful and romantic, with great actors and a great director. I recommend this movie to anyone who is looking for a great movie. 9/10.

It's a long time since I've seen a movie that is so sincere, and yet so full of life. The way the characters are written and the way they are acted, the way they express their emotions, all of it is so genuine. The whole movie is so moving, that I can't help but feel like I've lost something. I don't want to spoil anything, but the ending is so incredible, I can't explain it without ruining it. But it's a very powerful and very important ending, and it's one of the most powerful I've ever seen in a movie. This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of them. I'm not a great critic, but I'm not a bad one either. I have been through a lot of movies, and this is one of the few that really changed me. I'll never forget it.

I have watched this movie 4 times and I am still in awe about the film.I love it.I am on this site that was created by Joanne Woodward, the writer of the book that made the movie happen and I think she is an amazing writer and she's a damn fine actress.She was the one who inspired this movie. This movie is so beautiful.It's an incredibly sad, but it's not a love story.It's about the human spirit, the power of life and the meaning of friendship. It's a true love story and it's one of those movies that makes you cry with laughter, it's not so serious but its still a sweet, very beautiful movie. Also, the director was very well chosen and the actors were very good.It's one of those movies that will last on in your memory and it's a perfect movie for anyone.

This is the best movie I have seen in a long time. It's a wonderful story of a woman's search for her son. It is very romantic, and it has a wonderful plot. It has wonderful actors. It is very well acted. It is a must see for anyone who likes movies. I hope everyone will see this movie. It is a great movie!

Fellini is the true master of art, as he proved again with this movie. It's the first of his films that I've seen and I had no idea what to expect, but I was blown away. It's like a roller coaster ride through his life, as he went from his childhood to his first movie, then his last. I was hoping that Fellini would be a little more serious, but he was just as funny as ever, and it was nice to see the girl he was having an affair with, and her reaction to his death. It was a wonderful movie, and I hope you will all see it, it is a must see. I give this a 9/10. If you have not seen it, see it immediately.

The film centers on a woman, "Miss Ann", who is caught up in a one night stand with a wealthy man, "Mr. Lala", played by Woody Harrelson. "Mr. Lala" is not the classic rich guy in the one night stands movies but an educated rich man who has learned a lot of things from his "master" over the years, namely, "how to get what you want in life". The film explores these things and many more with a subtle but potent plot that explores how certain people use money, sex and romance to get what they want. The film is a dark comedy that, I believe, is still very relevant today. While this is certainly not a "so bad it's good" film, it is still very good and can be seen as an allegory to the modern world. "Fellini" is not about art but art as we would see it today. The film is most likely aimed at a younger audience, but as always, "Fellini" has one of the best songs in the film, "In the Mood" by Antony Gormley, who is the perfect accompanist for the film. This song is extremely catchy and is great accompaniment for the film. The film also stars: James Belushi, Adrian Grenier, Samuel L. Jackson and Owen Wilson. I would also like to say that this film is a great homage to film noir films and Alfred Hitchcock's movies. While I will not say that this is a "Hitchcockian" film, it is certainly very similar to "The Birds", a film that many would consider a masterpiece. The plot is very powerful and highly relevant to today's society. The story of a woman caught up in an affair, as the film is titled, is very intriguing and the film has an excellent storyline. The film is also very witty and insightful. The cast is also excellent, especially Woody Harrelson and Samuel L. Jackson who deliver their lines in a very amusing and smart way. Some of the film's best lines are: "Miss Ann" (Woody Harrelson), "Mr. Lala" (Adrian Grenier) and "Miss Ann" (Owen Wilson). All of the actors in the film deliver great performances. While not a classic, the film is an excellent tribute to film noir films. The plot, the writing and the performances make this film very enjoyable. It is a beautiful film and it is worth seeing.

I've been a fan of film for years. My parents bought me a VHS copy of "An American Haunting" when I was about 13. Since then I've been obsessed with the genre. The only film I've seen that really stuck with me was "The Sixth Sense" and I'm a big fan of that movie. I had heard that the remake of "Fellini's Last Supper" was coming out, so I decided to watch it. I was so excited to see the movie, but I was so disappointed. The movie is about a young man named Harry (played by Anthony Hopkins) who comes to a retirement home to learn the secrets of the life of the place. The movie was great, but the acting was terrible. Anthony Hopkins was horrible. I was surprised that the actor that played Harry was the same actor who played the part of Vincent in "Last Supper." Harry is the most boring character in the movie. He is so boring and boring that I kept asking myself what is going on with this guy. The movie had a great story, but the acting was so bad that it ruined the movie. I'm not saying that the acting is Oscar worthy, but it was terrible. If you want to see a good film, see "Fellini's Last Supper."

This movie is a must see. Its the story of two friends from different countries who meet up in a small town in Germany. The two have a great friendship and the movie is about them growing up together. The movie is very emotional and heart touching. I am so glad that I have seen this movie. The movie is about a young girl named Sarah, who is a violinist. She gets a job at the local school where she is a teacher and the teacher has a crush on her. He invites her to his home and they start to talk. The movie is about how their friendship grows and changes as they grow older. The movie is very funny, it is very sweet and sad. This movie is a must see!

This is one of the best movies I have ever seen. It is a great story about love and life. It is romantic, fascinating and exciting. It is a film of poetry and art. I will never forget this one. It is a must-see movie for everyone. This is a great movie.

I'm a very much a fan of Fellini and I've seen all his films (apart from "The Last Tango In Paris") at least 10 times in my life. This movie is definitely not a simple generic tale about Italy, and nor is it about some tragic love story between a married man and a woman (though I admit it does seem to have some resonance there), but it's more about the experience of living and how you experience it. The best example I can think of is when Carlos speaks to Teresa about his life and how he lived and how he experienced it, how it all seems to go. It seems to me that the film is about the film maker's life and how he experiences life. The director is the main character, the film maker is the hero. The whole film seems to be about the journey of a man, his experiences, and how he experiences them. As a young guy, I'd say that the film's message is for all of us. I have seen many films that deal with teenage suicide and death. I've seen movies that deal with teen sex and homosexuality. I've seen many that deal with divorce and remarriage and (particularly) with divorce and remarriage. I've seen many that deal with teenage "dysfunction" and in some cases with teenage suicide. But I've never seen a film that deals with the experience of living in a European country. I think the film maker's journey is the one that I feel most intensely. It seems to me that the whole film seems to be a search for a very deep truth about life, and about life's journey. But I don't know whether it's just me or it's all a matter of perception. If you have the chance, I'd say that the film maker's experience is very much in line with my own, and that's good enough. I don't think that there's anything inherently wrong with the film.

I just watched this movie for the first time and I was stunned at how beautiful and touching it is. I was never a fan of James Franco, but I loved him in this movie. I think he was fantastic in this movie. I think that everyone should see this movie, especially people who are fans of Fellini. It is definitely worth the time. I have never seen a movie like this before and I don't think I will ever. I highly recommend this movie to everyone. I give it a 9 out of 10.

I am not a big fan of Italian movies, but I had to watch this one. I am a fan of Fellini, but he was not the same for me. I have seen all his movies, but I was not very fond of the ones I have seen. I thought I would not like this one, but I must say that it was very good. I like the cinematography, the acting, the story and the costumes. The story is a little bit complicated, but I think it is okay. I think the movie is about a man who is in search of his lost love. I think the acting was good and the story was great. I think the movie has a little bit of a problem in the end, but I do not think it is a problem that you will be disappointed. I think you will enjoy this movie. I think you should watch it, I think you should see it.

I had always known that I was a big fan of Fellini, having watched every film that he ever made. One day I happened to stumble across his "The Dreamers" in my local library, and upon doing so found the most perfect movie of his I had ever seen. This movie is definitely a favorite, because it is so beautifully shot and composed. It had a wonderful feel to it that I didn't think was possible in an American movie. It is a film that doesn't need special effects, it just needs the whole picture, and "The Dreamers" has it. It's great to see a movie that is original, isn't loaded with people running around everywhere, and only happens once. But in a way I love this movie. It's always great to watch a film with the feel of a VHS tape in it, but the way this movie was put together is another thing. You see it all so differently in a movie. I loved how the music of the movie was mixed with the scenes. It was great to see how it was all made, and I think this was a fantastic way to make a movie. And I loved how the actors were so different from one another. This is the kind of movie that should never be forgotten. It's one of my all time favorite movies. I recommend this movie to everyone. Enjoy!

A romantic comedy/drama with a strong female protagonist. The young adult plot of the film is a bit silly, but the overall message is very well communicated and will likely leave you in tears. The performances are great, especially by the young cast. The movie moves along nicely, it never takes itself too seriously, and it's one of the best films of its genre I've seen in years. It's definitely worth a look.

I've never seen a film that so effortlessly moves me to tears. I love this film for its heartfelt honesty and ability to touch the soul. I love that it has so many different characters and the way they are all brought to life. It's a rare thing to see a film that doesn't only focus on one character and it's still a great film. It's a masterpiece in my opinion. I love that the characters all have their own quirks and quirks that they use to their advantage and that's why I love this film so much. I love how this film is about an immigrant family and how they are brought together and the way they get along and the way they are all brought to the surface. I love the way the film handles the multiple characters and how it handles the family dynamics. It's a wonderful film and I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves films of this type.

I think it's one of those movies that takes you to a place where you can't see it. You have to be at least in your 30s to appreciate it, but even the youngest one will understand the point. With a little research, you could really start to understand what the movie is saying. What is life, if not the vision of a loved one, of a mission, of a problem?

Heaven's Gate is one of the most controversial and widely acclaimed movies of the 20th century. Even today, the movie has become synonymous with the ugly and absurdness of the Vietnam War and it's ramifications. The film, as it was meant to be, would have been the reason for the Vietnam War. A film of this magnitude, which I saw several years ago, might not have received the coverage that it did. Heaven's Gate is, at the time, very much an experimental film, with a lot of critics giving it a very negative review. For me, the film is a triumph of style over substance. It is so well made that you never know what to expect from it. The plot is very simple. Jack Altman (Chris Isaak) is a poet who is in Vietnam in 1966. Jack joins the Peace Corps and goes to search for a Japanese soldier. After he discovers him, Jack is very much against his decision and decides to write a letter to his old love, the Japanese soldier's wife, and hopes that it will be returned. This letter goes to the Japanese embassy and he is told to come back to America. Jack doesn't want to, and instead decides to wait for a chance to return to Japan, which eventually happens. Jack continues to wait and it is at this point that the story takes a dramatic turn. Jack is still waiting for the return of the letter. What happens next is that Jack must come to terms with what he is doing. He begins to think about his decision. What he does is that he seeks a relationship with a woman he barely knows. He begins to learn about the Japanese military and the way things work in that country. Jack comes to realize that it is much more dangerous to remain in the Peace Corps than it is to go into battle. Jack makes a decision, and in the process, his life and his life as a whole is changed. Heaven's Gate is a very good movie. In the genre of epic war films, it succeeds as far as I am concerned. It is a very impressive and emotional story. It is a beautifully directed film, and well acted. There are some very well thought out characters and the film never has a dull moment. The performances are superb. Sean Penn is great as Jack. His performance is very similar to the role he played in Apocalypse Now. Danny Aiello is very good as the diplomat that Jack must deal with. He plays a very complicated character and manages to make him endearing and funny. There is also Peter Stormare as a Japanese soldier who is trying to get the letter back. He is a very talented actor, and he does a great job at portraying a man torn between his past and his present.

I just watched this movie on a plane. The movie was beautiful, it had a great plot, the acting was great. I recommend it to everyone. I have no idea how it was so difficult to get this movie in theaters. I think it was because of the trailer. It is a great movie, and I think that this is the best movie of 2007.

This movie is not for those that do not like the movie business. It will hit you hard! This is a story of love and loss. I loved it. I saw the trailer about 10 times and I still love it. I wish they could have put a movie like this one in a longer format. You are too young to see it now. But if you see it in theaters or IMAX, you will like it a lot! And I do mean a lot!

I loved it. Although I have always been a fan of the more recent of Fellini's films, this one is just as good and I didn't think it would be a sequel. It does feel like a typical Fellini film, but it is so much more. I did notice that this film was a bit shorter and more focused on the "obligatory" sex scene than the other two films, but it doesn't take away from the movie at all. The plot is great, the characters are all excellent, and the music is just great. I can't wait to see this one again, and I hope I'm not disappointed by the fact that I didn't see this before.

I love the art of cinema, and I love to watch it with my family. The movie got me in it, and it brought out my soul and soul with it. The story is very simple, but that's the best part of this movie. I have to say that I didn't even have to think about what the movie was about, I knew what was going to happen after the first few minutes. It was amazing and it was a true gem.

I think it is a wonderful film, i loved the performances of everyone in the movie, especially the two stars (Jessica Biel and Hugh Jackman). But what i especially loved about the movie was how beautiful it was and how real it felt. And i loved the idea of the movie, how it could happen, and the way that it is shot. And there are some funny moments, i mean the little boy is really funny, he is like the best thing in the movie, his parents are kind and good. And the way that he sees the movie and how he finds the movie, how the little boy finds the movie and how the characters get back into the real world, that is the whole idea of the movie, and that is what makes it so magical. But the other important thing about the movie is that it is very real. And that is what i love about this movie, and that is what made it so good. It is really the perfect combination of romance and love. If you are in the mood to see a great movie about friendship, or just have a great time with a great cast, then this is the movie for you.

A simple story about a young girl who goes to see a play in a small town, and finds her father missing. She soon discovers that his sister is in a similar situation and quickly tries to find her. As the story progresses the girl finds out that the sister is also a playwright. The film is a very well done drama with good performances by the cast. The director has given a very good balance between drama and comedy in the film. The story is very well done and you will be involved with the story from beginning to end. The characters are very well developed and you will be interested in them. The cast is very good, with the exception of the leading actress who is a little wooden. The director has given some great music, and the soundtrack is very good. The film is very well directed and the editing is very good. Overall, a good film. 9/10 Bethany Cox

This movie is a tribute to the magnificent movie "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and its director Fellini. It is a magnificent love story about the friendship between a boy and a girl. A wonderful film with a beautiful love story, an excellent directing, great actors and a lot of work. It is so wonderful that is with me. If you want to be amazed by this marvelous film, I strongly recommend you to see it.

A great film. A perfect blend of drama, comedy, and romance. It has a great cast and story. The story was so strong and well told. The story was about two men who had to decide whether to stay with their friend or not. It was about two men who were on opposite ends of the spectrum and it was about the way they deal with the situations that they face. The film had great music and the music was very well done. It was a great film and I highly recommend it.

After seeing this movie I could not get it out of my head. In the end I was left with the feeling of an unexplainable sense of relief that I was not alone in this feeling. Every human being has the right to pursue happiness, and every human being has the right to pursue happiness of the greatest kind. I hope that some will see this movie and share it with others, and that they will not let the idea of justice die in their hearts. This is a movie that will touch your soul.

I did not read the book, but knew of the cinematography and the story. I did not read the plot, but felt it had something to tell, and could easily be a great film. Even though it has the plot of the book, it is not exactly the same. There are some very minor differences, but the director clearly understands the book to which he refers, and as a result, the movie really captures the spirit of the story. The characters are very real, and the audience can really identify with them. You feel like you know them, and you can easily feel what they are going through, just as a result of reading the book. It is interesting to see a director actually make a movie. With a book, you have to translate the ideas into the movie, but as long as it is done right, and does not overwhelm you with itself, it is a successful adaptation. This movie does this very well. It is so good that I will be purchasing the DVD.

This is an interesting movie. The main character, Josh (David Strathairn) has a few family members that he has to pay back in 20 odd years. However, he realizes he has a future here. With his teenage son, Sam (Ed Oxenbould), he becomes a research scientist at his alma mater. After a conflict between his son and his old girlfriend of 10 years, Jack (Jessica Chastain), Sam leaves the family. He realizes he can have a better life at school. Sam meets Katie (Amber Heard), a classmate who happens to be the daughter of a famous scientist. The two of them develop a strong friendship. However, Katie also has her own future. Eventually, the two of them are able to save their parents' research laboratory. It is hard to leave behind your past to make a better future for yourself. It is also hard to let go of the past to find a better future for your future. When Josh realizes that he has a better future than Katie, he can only say the following: "You're the one that matters."

I watched the trailer to this film and was immediately hooked, I have been looking forward to seeing it ever since. When I watched it, I was so impressed that I immediately bought it on DVD. It's amazing how a movie can do such a complete 180 with just a few minutes of information, it was amazing how the first scene in the film was the best of the entire movie. Not to mention that I just love Tom Cruise and I thought he did a fantastic job playing this depressed, lonely older man. The ending of the film was so surprising and left me with so many questions unanswered, but I didn't want to spoil it for you. I recommend this film to anyone, I definitely think it's one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. 9/10

A beautiful movie, very moving. I didn't get it at first, but I really liked it and will watch it again. The acting was superb. It was really a movie that needed to be made. I think the story is about a girl who wants to be a writer and be the best writer in the world, and her family is very supportive of her. I really think it's a great movie, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to see a really great movie. I would give it a 9 out of 10.

It's a real shame that "Fellini's past" and the people associated with his legacy can't be celebrated or remembered in Hollywood. People who have "made it" in Hollywood might have a career for a while. It's sad that these people can't really come up with anything good to say about themselves. This is really sad because these people are respected and have achieved so much in their lives. This is a beautiful movie that shows how much Fellini is loved by all the people who know him. I recommend it to anyone who has ever seen any of Fellini's films.

This is a very insightful film, particularly in regards to the art of film making. The script is fantastic and the movie is paced very well. The production values are pretty impressive and I have never heard of any other movies that have been released with this type of quality of production values. The movie is very good on many levels. I personally found it to be entertaining and extremely rewarding. There is one scene in particular that was a little bit unbelievable but I would have to say it is worth the struggle to watch. The whole movie, is worth seeing for a couple of reasons. 1. To see a great acting job by Chazz Palminteri and to see Tony Leung Chiu Wai in a different role. 2. To see a movie that is an adaptation of a play that is very original and has great dialogue. 3. To watch a movie that is very entertaining and very touching. This movie is very entertaining and it does have a lot of humour but I think that this is a movie that a lot of people will enjoy.

A film you won't be able to leave your self. The characters are so real that it's like watching them without the internet, or your friend. The idea of the film was a brilliant idea. The first time i saw this movie i thought it was the best movie i had ever seen. That's what makes it even more amazing. The concept of the film is very well done. The acting in this movie is just amazing. I really liked the way this movie was shot. It felt like watching a film i just paid to see. Not many movies get that kind of experience. The story of the movie is also great. There are so many parts that could have been improved on. But this film is just so great and worth watching. If you ever wanna see a really good movie, watch this. It's just amazing. I'm giving it 9 stars. No I won't ever watch it again.

I think the fact that this film wasn't as good as the previous one and that's not saying much because if you were a fan of the first one you would probably be disappointed in this one but if you were a fan of the other one you should definitely see this one. There's no question that it is the best movie of 2003 and it does everything right. There are so many things in the movie that really make you wonder and I'm not going to spoil the film for you. The visuals are great and there are some of the best and most famous pictures of the world (including Italy). The soundtrack is great and I'm not even going to talk about the story or the acting. I really can't say that this is the best film of the year because that's just not what I'm saying. It's a really good film and it is in my top 10. It deserves all the awards that it got.

Another great film by the great James Ivory. The movie is about a man named "Chris," who is trying to find his father, and his wife, while living in a huge city like New York. His father, is a politician named Chris (played by Leonardo DiCaprio). He is trying to play politics, and he is getting his friend, a cop named "James" (played by Will Smith) to spy on him. This movie has great music, great acting, and a great story. I liked the fact that the director, James Ivory, kept to keep the story simple, and the movie was long enough to make it enjoyable for everyone. Also, the actors were great, and all of them did a great job. James Smith was awesome in this movie, and his character was great too. Also, the character who played "Jimmy" was a lot better than I thought. Also, Will Smith played this great cop, who was trying to play politics, and was getting his friend, James, to spy on him. The only other actor that I thought was great in this movie was Helena Bonham Carter. I love Helena Bonham Carter, and she was amazing in this movie. Overall, the movie was great, and I really like James Ivory's other movies. 10/10

This movie gives a personal glimpse into the lives of a young gay man and the beautiful female characters who surround him. It also shows the impact that a man's pride and insecurity can have on the relationships between his friends. It also shows the confusion that comes with gay men and how it is constantly interrupted by his confusion about the female characters. It's amazing to see the differences in their lives from the friendship and the sexual aspects of their lives. The movie shows how one must let go of what people tell them, because one is not sure what they are actually living. I thought the movie was very well done and I hope that more gay movies are made like this one. It's also interesting to see how a man could have such a conflict in his life over his pride and his feelings of being gay. I liked the characters, especially Jurgen as he plays a very complicated character with many conflicts, and how the friendship between him and his friend can have a huge impact on the men's lives. He also made me feel for him in the way he was trying to control his feelings and feelings of jealousy. He had a pretty good relationship with his gay friend, but I felt that he could have been more emotional and I think his acting could have been better, but I don't think he was trying to act. Overall, I really liked this movie and it's a movie I would recommend.

I am so happy to see a movie about movies. I love movies, I love all types of movies, I love movies with beautiful cinematography, I love movies with interesting plots and I love movies with some kind of narrative, I love movies with some kind of philosophical references. But what I love most is that a movie like this, an old classic that I have seen so many times, can still be created, can still be enjoyed. No one can compete with Fellini. This is a great movie and it has inspired me in so many ways, I don't even want to know what it would have inspired me to do in my life, it has already inspired me to watch some others of his films. I love this movie and I hope that everybody will see this movie. 10/10. XOXO

I am writing this review before seeing this film. I'm not going to comment on the subject because I don't feel like I have to. I am also not going to comment on the acting, the plot, the performances, the direction or the cinematography. I am going to be honest and tell you how much I loved this film. A woman who is obsessed with her husband's death decides to make his last movie. She doesn't care about what others think. And she is not ashamed of it. You could not have picked a better person to star in this film. It is a strange tale that goes on a long time, but it is also one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen. I wish I could say more about the film because it is a masterpiece. I can't imagine anything better than this.

At first, the idea of portraying a movie about Fellini and his son is odd. However, it's a very nice story of life in modern-day Italy and that's what they did. Fellini (Max Von Sydow) and his son and his grandson are friends. His grandson's father dies and is buried in the mountains of Italy. A week later, the grandson is still living there and runs a cafe. He meets a girl named Elena (Ana Girolami) and falls in love. Fellini's grandson (Matthias Schoenaerts) does not agree to a relationship with Elena but he still is involved in the cafe. He meets a character named Antonio (Yann Chada) who is an anti-fascist who is anti-Fellini. Antonio has many secrets that he has not told his grandson. When Antonio is to be executed, he asks Fellini to be his witness. After Fellini returns to the restaurant, he learns the true truth of the truth. He leaves Italy and leaves the cafe, being thrown from the boat by the wind. He has to continue his journey until he arrives in Rome. After arriving in Rome, he falls in love with Elena and finds a way to convince her to tell the truth to Antonio. He finally convinces her to tell the truth to Antonio and they become engaged. The ending is very sad, sad to think that this love could end like this. A very sweet movie, a must see for any Fellini lover.

I agree with a lot of reviewers who seem to have given this film a bad review. I really loved this movie. It was a beautiful and sad film about love and love lost. The music was amazing. It's difficult to put into words what this film is. A beautiful, sad, funny, and wonderful story about a man who is paralyzed in a car accident and has to live a life of solitude in the woods. I loved this film and I think that people who hated it, really should see it.

I was fortunate enough to see this movie on a flight from Amsterdam to San Francisco. I can only say that the movie was absolutely stunning. I have never been to the U.S. and have never been to a movie theater but I would definitely recommend this movie to any traveler who has not been to the U.S. yet. I am not a movie critic and I would not like to be so in the future. But I think this movie is one of the best I have ever seen. It is beautifully shot, has beautiful music, and is very well acted. I was very moved by the scenes of the relationship between the two main characters and I think it is the best movie I have ever seen in my life. I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves movies. It is one of the best movies I have ever seen.

I was a little disappointed by this film. It was not very entertaining, and it seemed to be very slow. It seemed to be a little too long. The only reason I gave it a 9 was because it was very good. I felt the two main actors did a great job and I felt the story was very interesting. The cinematography was very good and the film was very well made. I was very impressed with the music. I felt the film was very slow, but the music kept me interested and made the film very interesting. I was a little disappointed with the ending, but I understand that this is a very personal film for the director. I do recommend this film.

I agree with the previous comments. This movie is about life. This movie is about human spirit and how life in Italy in the 70's was so peaceful and people in this movie are doing their best to make the perfect life. It was very well acted. The story line was really interesting and did not feel like a movie in the conventional sense. It had a very interesting plot that took you to the heart of the story. The acting was fantastic and it was not easy to watch, but the audience was able to take the movie in. I enjoyed the movie, but I would not want to say it is one of the greatest movies ever made. However, I would give this movie a 10/10.

I'd never really seen a good documentary on movies, until I saw this one. Everything about it was perfect, it was incredibly well made and the acting was super-stellar. The only reason I gave it an 8 was that I didn't care for the lead character and found her one-dimensional. It was just way too one-dimensional, not because she was bad, but because she didn't stand out in a movie like this. I love that it was a true story and that I didn't have to worry about it being an exaggeration of how some people treat people with mental illnesses, I just didn't feel the need to focus on it because I knew I would not. It was so well done and just added a little extra to the movie. I am just so happy that I discovered this movie because I truly enjoyed it and it was so well done. It's a little disappointing that it was released in 2014 instead of 2001 because that was such a great year for documentaries, but I think that's the way it should have been. It was released in the same year as The Insider and other documentaries that made their mark on the film industry. The cinematography was amazing, the editing was fantastic, and I loved the story of the man who got no treatment for his mental illness. It was absolutely amazing and I was able to watch it and feel like it was real and to feel a connection with the characters, which was something I didn't get when I saw other documentaries on the same subject.

I just saw this movie in Theaters in Athens, Greece. This movie is really good and i hope that it will be shown in the U.S. (CinemaCon, at the end of May, 2003) and it will be a good decision. I saw this movie twice, first time in Greek and second time in English. I was pleased that this movie won the Best Screenplay Oscar, because it is one of the most beautiful movies that i have ever seen. I think that it is a great movie and will watch it again and again. I think that the Greek people should see this movie and if you are one of them, you should go to the theater, but if you are not, don't go to the theater. You won't regret it.

I have to say I have never read any of Fellini's films, but I did get an education in Cinema and have a great deal of respect for him and his work. When I heard of this movie, I was impressed and intrigued, and had to see it. The story line was not exactly clear, but I think this was one of the strengths of the movie. I loved the characters, their motivations, their flaws, and the strength of the relationships that developed between them. I think this movie is very under rated. It should be seen by everyone, regardless of what type of person they are. I highly recommend it.

I've seen many other movies, and I have to say that this movie is by far the best. It was a little bit weird at first, but as you continue to watch it, you start to understand what's going on. It's not just about a woman who gets hurt, but also about a woman who gets hurt for the love of a man who has hurt her in the past. It's about a woman who has hurt herself, and that is what makes it so powerful. But the message that the movie gives is the most important thing. You have to see it. I know, I know. It's just not something that Hollywood will make again.

I love this movie, I really do. I am an Italian film buff. I've been waiting to see this movie for a long time. I have seen it three times now. My first encounter was in the early 90's, it was really the first time I had ever seen the movie. The second time was in 2005, and again it was in the early hours of the morning, when I was out with a friend. I was like "oh my gosh. this is like the greatest movie ever." In the beginning of the third time, I gave up trying to sleep. I couldn't fall asleep, because I was so involved in the movie. I was the story, the director and the star of the movie, I was the storyteller, I was the person I wanted to see. And it was amazing. I've been waiting to watch this movie for a long time. I saw it on the DVD, and I still love it. I've never been that inspired, and I was not before watching the movie. This is my favorite movie, and I was so touched by it. I am not the only one. It is an amazing movie. The director has done an amazing job. The screenplay, the actors, the music, the beautiful cinematography. it's a movie that makes you laugh, it makes you cry, it makes you smile. I can't wait to see it again.

I'm a huge fan of my beloved comedy so I couldn't wait to see this film. I've had it since it came out in 1992. A few years ago I bought the DVD. The director of the movie is awesome, who also directed the late great Bruce Almighty. This is definitely a film that needs to be seen. Although a few scenes of violence, the story is also touching. Fellini was famous for his subtle comedy and the film is much more of the same. I highly recommend this film. It is definitely one of the greatest comedy films ever made. 10/10

This film is great, not only because of the cinematography, but the film is wonderfully written. It tells a story of love and friendship, and portrays a time in the life of a couple who try to reconcile the family and country which separated them. The story is very modern in its conception, and the images are very beautiful and express a wealth of emotion and passion. The story is just what the title says: "In Search of Fellini." This film was filmed in New York, and it is probably the most visually beautiful film ever made. It is a film that you can watch over and over again and never get tired of. I just recently saw it on cable and thought it was fantastic.

This movie is absolutely amazing. It is very well thought out. The acting was great, the story was great. I haven't been this impressed with a movie in a very long time. The only thing I would say was that some of the dialogue was a little cheesy. The way the director shot the scenes was amazing. It's like you are right there. You are experiencing everything the actors are feeling. It's almost as if the actors are in front of you. It was really intense. If you want to go see a movie like this, go see this movie. You will not be disappointed.

My wife (and I) have read a number of critics' and fans' reviews of this film. Many of them have been quite critical of it. For me, and I don't have the slightest interest in critics or fans, I was intrigued by this movie. After seeing it, I would say that it has been an exceptional experience. For the first hour or so, I thought it was a film for children. But it was certainly not. But, as the film progressed, I was able to identify with the characters, and understand the situations that they were in. A few other reviews have mentioned the composer's contributions. While the film is primarily a documentary, and the composer is not a character in the film, his music is an integral part of the film. I thought it was wonderful that the composer did not seem to be commenting on the film in any way. His score is an integral part of the film, but I don't think he was commenting on it in any way. He was simply showing the director his score. To me, that was a wonderful, enjoyable part of the film. Some people may be disappointed with the film's lack of focus on "facts," but I would suggest that the film is about the human condition, the possibilities for love, the inability to stop living. And I would also suggest that the human condition is not so much a limitation as it is a gift. When this film was over, we all seemed to be talking about it. I highly recommend this film. I would give it a 9 out of 10.

Went to see this with my husband. He enjoyed it and was also quite surprised. The only fault I can see with this film is that there were too many locations. I am used to the camera zooming in and out and seeing only a few locations. This made it very difficult to concentrate on the film. I also felt the characters were all quite bland. The actress playing Keisha's mother seemed very one-dimensional, and that seemed to be the character's character. The best parts of this film were the love scenes. This film is actually quite long, but the love scenes are what kept the film going. Even with the length, I did not get bored or bored in any way. I think this movie is perfect for anyone who has watched any of the films of the Fellini's. It is just as good as "Silence of the Lambs".

I was so taken by the beauty of this movie. It seems to me that the other critics missed the point. One reviewer says that the movie is about a teenage boy's search for something of value in his life. Well, that's the point of this movie. But one reviewer says that it is about "the virtues of mediocrity" or "the collapse of a fairy tale morality" and I agree with him, but the movie isn't about those virtues. The characters are of a higher caliber. Leonardo DiCaprio's character is sympathetic and full of character. Meryl Streep's character is likeable and full of life. Every character in this movie is full of life. I wonder why it is that people have been so critical of this movie? I would have given it a 10 or an 8 if it had been about something other than these character characteristics. And there is no way that it is about those virtues.

I think it is great to have a beautiful story told in a different way. What is more the writing is great. Great cinematography and fantastic acting. I think that everyone should watch it and will be in love with it. In search of Fellini is a very important film that can be watched several times. The beauty and the depth of the film is amazing and it makes you feel good. It is a very emotional movie. I am sad that Fellini died. I think that everyone should watch this film and watch it again.

The late, great, great James Toback (who directed and co-wrote the screen adaptation) wrote the script for this film that was a huge hit with critics and audiences alike. It's the story of the first steps of film becoming a staple of the zeitgeist of our times, and the personal sacrifice of two people who have to go their separate ways to be reunited. In this case, it's director Tony Scott and writer/star Richard Curtis, both of whom were born to make films. As a kid, Curtis was the "big" kid in school. He wasn't quite at the point of where he was going to go big with films, but he was in the very early stages of his career, and Scott, who was the kid in school who was known to do whatever he wanted to do, could have easily gotten away with just putting Curtis in a film, knowing that he could make millions on a film he had absolutely no experience in. But because of this, the two got together to create a movie that is, for the most part, great. It's almost too perfect, the way they were able to do this. They are extremely likable and have chemistry with one another that makes you want to see them go on forever. Also, the way they made this feel real is as real as it can be. It's just like a real story of real people. This is a story of a love story between two people who have met, but have no real love to each other. The first time we see them together is on screen, at a party, which they both agreed to attend. There is no clear reason for the two to be together, but one is willing to do anything to get her chance at that special someone. That's when we first see the real love between these two. Their first meeting was not the real reason that they became friends. It was their friendship, the one that made them really want to make a film together. One of the best things about this film is the way it tells a real story. They give us a glimpse of a couple that is falling apart, and their lives and love. At one point in the film, the main character tells her mother that she is beginning to wonder about her life. It is the real, immediate feeling that she has about her life, because that is what we experience, in the film. That is what the film does, make us feel that. The other thing that they did was make it feel real. As I said, they gave us a glimpse of a couple that has been together for years, but never really had that special someone in their lives. It's all for a reason. This is all true. I think that there are a lot of people out there who have never experienced the journey of a relationship, that have never known how these things work. This film shows that this can be for you too. This is not a movie that makes you feel good. It shows you how it feels, and it is a film that makes you feel real. A film that tells the real story. That's what this film is about, and it does that perfectly. I loved this film, and it is one of my favorite films of all time. I hope you will love it, too. 9/10

For me, this is probably my favourite movie ever, so far. I had seen the trailer and thought "Well this looks like Fellini's masterpiece" and was about to write a review when I found out that this movie was about a woman and her husband who are about to get married. So I read the plot synopsis and was like, "Okay, that sounds a lot like Fellini's masterpiece, let's go watch it". I thought the acting was superb, especially when the wife goes on her "jazz walk" (which is how they dress, with long, flowing gowns and strange and stylish hairstyles). This was the movie that made me think "oh wow, this is Fellini, I should be watching his stuff". It is one of the few movies that are on my must watch list, and I'll probably watch it again before I die. If you don't believe me, try watching it for the first time. It will be worth it.

In Search of Fellini is a film which was made to mark the release of Fellini's Vittelian Dilemma and also an homage to the Fellini who inspired it. To tell you the truth I'm not a fan of Fellini, in fact I just never get past the F and Fs. But the film did a great job of telling the story of an Italian family (the Ligas) in 1930s Italy who are caught up in a forbidden love affair and it is through this story that we see the family at it's zenith in the 1930s. It also has some interesting visual moments such as the circus scene, the dances and the house in the ruins. There is also a touching scene involving the actor that he plays as he contemplates his future and when he meets the young man he is a great admirer of his. The acting is superb throughout and to add to that the film is full of real life scenes such as the wrestling scene which is incredibly moving. Overall it is a great film that has a great story to tell. A great film to be watched by any person.

I am a big fan of Paul Thomas Anderson's work and I really enjoyed this film. The first thing I would say is that I would have never imagined that this could be the film that opened my eyes to what film could be. It was beautifully shot, very emotive, very thought provoking and very real. The story of the married couple who are forced to flee their home and both their children, and the potential consequences for their own actions. It was heartbreaking, it was hard to watch and it was absolutely terrifying. Paul Thomas Anderson knows how to portray a character in the most realistic way possible, he was a great story teller. I loved the soundtrack, it was incredible, the images were both beautiful and terrifying. I don't know what the critics were expecting but they were completely wrong, I would say that I enjoyed this film and it definitely wasn't a waste of time. The only thing that I didn't really like was the final scene, I felt like they could have just left it at the end. I did enjoy it, and I am definitely going to go and see it again when it comes out on DVD. 10/10.

The first time I saw this movie I was about ten years old, I remember that it was a very successful hit at that time. I never knew a person in my life that had watched the movie that long. Everytime I watched the movie, I was moved by it. When I was thirteen I went to watch a second edition DVD of it. And I was even more moved by it. This is the movie I watch the most, the one I watched more than any other. The point of the movie is to tell us that we can not be sure about our existence, that our mind and our lives are much better and much more beautiful and wonderful than we can imagine. At the end of the movie I was not sure what I wanted to say, I wanted to tell everyone that I love this movie. And I did. Thank you for this movie, thank you to all of you who had the time to watch it.

The best movie ever made. From the beginning to the end the movie is about two men who is a musical genius. There is no other movie that talks about two men like that. The only thing I don't understand is the ending. I don't understand why the movie was a great success. Maybe it was because it was about two men that were a musical genius. Anyway this movie is not for everyone. If you want to see a good movie with two men then see this movie. I give 10/10. You will love it. That's all.

I was waiting for this movie since last year, but I decided to wait for it because I've seen many people complaining about the movie. I'll have to say that I didn't think it was as good as it could have been. I was really looking forward to it. It was so wonderful, like some kind of fairy tale. I love watching beautiful cinematography and the movie was visually beautiful. I think that the movie is very well made. It was easy to follow and I think that it was a very smart movie. I really enjoyed this movie. I think it was very well done. There are so many beautiful scenes and the cinematography was just beautiful. I just think that the movie is a great one. I think that the movie was very well made. It's a very sweet movie and it's just a very well done one. I don't know why people are complaining about this movie, but I think that it is a very good movie.

i never felt like this movie was a masterpiece but i felt so much emotion watching this movie. it was an amazing story of a man who loves to give to others and then to return the favor. the story is very well put together and is much better than any other movies with an ending like this. it was not overrated or cliche. it had some dramatic moments but not overdone and the emotion was always there. the only thing i didn't like about the movie was that the main character had such a wide personality but also was very honest and good natured. in my opinion the movie would have been better if it ended a little earlier. but overall the movie was so well put together. i would recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in a well put together story. i feel that it is one of the best movies i have seen in a long time and i am so glad that it was made because it was really good. if you love movies with a great story and have a great heart then i would recommend this movie to you. i feel that this movie is more than deserving of an 8 out of 10. there are so many people who give this movie horrible reviews and i feel that there is a lot of people who have been fooled. people have rated this movie to be terrible and all i can say is that this is one of the best movies i have ever seen. if you love movies that have a story and emotions then you will love this movie. i would highly recommend that anyone watch this movie. i would also recommend that anyone buy this movie because it is a great movie and has great actors.

I loved this movie. I'm a big fan of the writer of these 'Mystery Science Theater 3000' videos, Jarmusch. He does a great job writing these dark stories about a father, who takes a boy to an island, where they learn about life and the world. Then, there are the stories about the animals, and there are the movies. This is the first of Jarmusch's works that I've seen. I loved his movies, but, they were not the same as I love the 'Mystery Science Theater 3000' videos. That's the only reason I'd recommend this movie. It's not perfect, but it's a great movie to watch. Don't go into this movie with high expectations, but go in with an open mind. You'll be pleasantly surprised. I'll be watching it again. I don't think I'll ever forget the last scene in the movie, the one where the father finally tells the boy that his parents are dead. It's a great movie, and you should see it.

This is not the story of a doctor falling in love with his patient. No, this is a story of two people who fell in love and were forced to break up, only to return. The relationship of the doctor to his patient is a long-standing secret. He always knew what was going to happen, but it just never happened. It is not until the last few days of the relationship does the doctor finally learn what it's like to be in love, to fall in love. I think this is a very touching and emotional film. I thought it was very powerful and the story was told very well. I didn't expect to be that emotional, but it made me feel it. The acting was really good. The main characters were played very well. I don't think they are famous actors, but they were great. The Doctor was great, as was the other lead character. The other actors were great as well. I think this movie is very well done and shows a very strong love story.

This is not a movie that can be recommended to just anyone. I first saw it in 1977 and have been looking for it ever since. I thought that this movie was a classic but have since forgotten the full film. Now I realize that there was a lot of talent involved. There is no doubt in my mind that this film should have won at least one academy award. The cast was great and I thought that all the scenes were incredible. It was a masterpiece. I still like to look at this film whenever I get a chance and I love it every time. It is a must-see for anyone who wants to see a film of the time and still have a strong feeling that it was the best film ever made. The best part about the film is that it is not "Americanized" and it is actually a true story about what happened to a man in search of himself and his feelings for a woman. I also like that the film deals with the subject of homosexuality in a very realistic and mature way. This is one of the few films I can watch again and again and I don't see why this film is not available on DVD. It is a film that everyone should see, so that everyone can experience what the actors were going through and how the film dealt with those issues in a realistic way. This is a movie that should be seen by everyone.

I'm a female, I'm gay and I've seen a lot of gay movies. I'm glad to say this one was a step up. The story is simple but the actors and the story are brilliant. I'm looking forward to watching it again.

The story of Fellini's THE DISMISSED (1897) in its entirety and the origins of the film's title is told by Peter Sarsgaard in a brilliant manner. It's in no way a spoiler that the brothers Alberto and Susana (played by the outstanding William H. Macy and Pablo Schreiber) who have abandoned Italy for America and live in America until their eventual return to Italy, are hardly the angels who they have portrayed in the film. Although, as always, it is the great music of Fellini that makes this a classic. The movie is a stunning example of cinematography, and the sound design which is perhaps one of the greatest in film history. Everything from the cinematography, to the sound design, to the music, to the acting and the dialog, are all outstanding, and the entire film is a remarkable work of art. A true masterpiece.

When the film ended I started to get a big smile on my face. This is a film you have to see. I have only watched it once and will only watch it once again. The camera work is excellent. I had never seen such a superb hand held shot in a film. My friends have been telling me about the film for years and have finally had the guts to go and watch it. I am very glad I did. You need to see this film. You will be shocked at the lack of violence and swearing. I give this film a 10. It is amazing and if you have not seen it yet you are missing out on something big.

Every year I get the chance to see all kinds of movies that I never would have thought about before, so when I saw the movie, I was very surprised, and I don't know why. I love Italian cinema, so this is a big surprise. I found the movie very interesting, it's not the typical romantic-drama movie, but I'm not sure if it's really for people who like romance. I think the movie is much better for people who love the cinema. I also find the characters in the movie very interesting. I liked how they acted, it's good that the characters were likeable and interesting. I also found the movie interesting because it's not typical for the movie. It was interesting and I also liked the way it was shot. I think this is a great movie for everyone, I recommend this movie to everyone.
