Cinema Pardiso. A directors movie.

I have the DVD. It's a great watch, great story. A little melodramatic though, doesn't really survive multiple viewings. Fit for a typical North American audience.
 
funny cause it was written directed screened and acclaimed in italy before it ever came here......
 
the melodrama is what makes it work. It's a dream. A memory. I think that's what it is meant to be.

I'm coming up on 40 years-old, so I'd venture to say that people that are starting to get nostalgic, like myself, will like it for reasons other than just the clean filmmaking.

Yet, younger people can appreciate it for it's great sense of story and tone, which should be important to filmmakers of all ages. :)
 
it's about a director it's amazing? the last scene of all the kissing frames spliced back together was the best ending ever.
