Great Movies About Movies?

Cinema Paradiso

Ed Wood: best thing Burton ever made.

Boogie Nights: best student film ever.

Barton Fink: Coen's in full Kafka mode. Terrifying and beautifully mundane.

The Burden of Dreams: Herzog gonna Herzog.

Adaptation: the duality of man explore in outrageous and enlightening ways.

8 1/2: Perfection.

I agree wit Cinema Paradiso, but I like the Purple Rose of Cairo as well.

Not as good as paradiso or Cairo, but very good. The Player

Stardust Memories- Woody Allen. Mainly for Fans. (different kind of movie for Woody.)

I think it was another homage to Fellini's 8 1/2.. Just like Mazursky did with "Alex in Wonderland" - he even had Fellini in his movie!
