Anti Kinski I would think.
Correct. Especially coming off of a school year with a student being abused by a parent and no one doing anything about it.
I'm trying to get a handle on what everyone likes/dislikes in the Personal Rec....that way I can win again
Seriously I want to give everyone films that they will love or at least like. Can you expand a bit on why some classic films like GWTW don't interest you? It's cool that they don't, I just want to make a good choice for you.
I don't know, honestly. My reaction to it has always just been "eh." I'm not a big fan of any of the actors involved, I don't find the plot description all that compelling, it has a really long run time. (Sorry if that sounds shallow, but I'm talking about what draws me to a film, not how I actually judge a film's worth). I will say that the stills I've seen of it are gorgeous, but as with
Barry Lyndon, pretty ain't gonna keep me happy for 3 hours.
But I go into everything with as much of an open mind as possible. The poster for
Cranes Are Flying kept me away from it for a while and I loved it. In fact, discovering that something I thought I'd find just medium is actually really great is a wonderful feeling. If there's a classic you're head over heels for, recommend it!
