You stated: "it's the best film I've seen about the autumn of a man's life", and I refuse to think that way. I do not at all relate to that pig, and I suspect you do not either. So while Bergman's work speaks of common human emotions, feelings, longing, suffering, Bertolucci's dreck is simply there to shock.
- Wrong, wrong, wrong. There is much common humanity in Brando's wounded, widowed man, - tinear 20:15:12 08/28/10 (2)
  left to face his loveless life, alone. He reaches out, with much vigor, for life--- for a lifeline--- with a mania borne of panic.
  But you've changed the subject yet again: it IS a film about a man staring old age in the face, not a man already deep into that season. Again, what film so boldly tackles it? What actor has lain himself so bare in a role? The fantastic part, of course, is that the story of the corn cob pipe, and others which are so realistic, are made up, all part of that master actor's craft. Now, how about you admit you hate Brando, that no matter the role, you just don't like him?
  You can have your opinion of Berto, of course, but it's extremely in the minority--- I cannot think of ANY major critic who dislikes his opus.

    - Yet another ducked question. And, for the record, I have no heroes, certainly - tinear 12:14:36 08/29/10 (0)
