American Beauty with that " sticky " actor? Terrible film, at first I thought maybe good, but approching the end...hum..and at the second view...I made it only for the first 20 minutes or so.
I would say that they belong to the best 100 films of the last ten years, but now do not ask me what are the others 90--( hehe )
Well, I am quite disappointed - Victor Khomenko 16:47:41 07/07/04 (3)
No such things as Faithless, Beau Travail and others? Lola has no place next to them, really.
American Beauty? Wow...
- Sorry, but I can only see what it is available. - tinear 17:15:50 07/07/04 (2)
  Don't believe I've heard of Faithless or B T. I'm assuming they're "foreign?"
  Well, there is no accounting for taste, but, anyhow, A B was a brilliant contemporary skewering of American society: marriage; work; parental relationships; inter-generational sex; drugs; militarism. It starred two actors---both giving excellent performance---who are our two best mature male actors: Chris Cooper and Kevin Spacey.

    So it was only the best US films...You should have been more precise....and called them the " ten not so worst "....Hehe...
  - Available at some rentals - Victor Khomenko 17:25:43 07/07/04 (0)
    One is not foreign to Patrick, the other - to Max Von Sydow. Tricky thing, that "foreign" label.
    Anyway, try to get them, you will not regret.
    You are right about the tastes, but I can't say enough bad things about the Beauty... so I will abstain. Even Kevin wasn't enoyable in it.
