In Reply to: "I Vitelloni"... it's hard to get more poetic than this posted by Victor Khomenko on January 27, 2004 at 20:02:45:
lowlifes in t-shirts slouch around a table endlessly muttering? A movie about a crime family where hours of dialogue creep by---and starring that transfixing, emotive cauldron of action---Alain Delon?
Yeah, this is "poetic"---in the same way as the sentiments one reads on toilet stalls.
(Sorry if I'm confusing with another movie (:=))
Follow Ups:
Not even close, buddy. I am not sure what you are talking about, but perhaps Rocco and his Brothers? In that case it is also a great film... but then perhaps you mean something completely different... as Delon played in many bad films too.No, no Delon in I Vitelloni. It is about several friends conducting mostly meaningless lives in a small Italian town, trying to get out.
did get the right country of origin, at least?
Yeah, the "poetic" film I meant WAS "Rocco." Pure, undiluted, unrefined, 100% Italian kaka.
(I Vit is one film I've always wanted to--- but for some reason never have---seen.)
I don't see Rocco as kaka at all, it is not the strongest film, but it ain't kaka in my view, and Delon's performance there is wonderful.I Vitelloni is hard to find, I don't see any available on the usual sites. I don't remember where I got my copied tape, that was years ago.
However, they are there on ebay, and for reasonable prices. There are two of them now on sale, one with no bids at $9.99.
Wow! If you don't take it I might.
