anybody out there see this gem? I saw it years ago at the Angelika in NYC. Once of the few places showing it. Does translate well to DVD. Fabulous, hypnotic (repetitive) soundtrack. Very clever idea: life's turn of events can be decided on the smallest thing. Stunning, thought provoking visual images. And the irony of the end....check this baby out.

I have it on DVD and have watched it twice. That's enough, at least for a while.

Yes, I saw it when it came out, and didn't think much about it. Everyone was talking about it back then, but I think there are far better movies. Maybe it is just me?

  No the same for me, I was surprise at the good critics! This film may be hip ( back then ) and the cutting new for normal people but not so for hyperactives...A film? No a clip.

  No, it got far more hype than it deserves.

    Oh yes ! Are you right on this one.

      go figure. I was crazy about this film. I dug the animation. Hey, I'm use to this. I remember when Bagdad Cafe came out years ago. Friends, family, neighbors: "go ask warren what to see. He's really into movies." Bagdad Cafe was the straw that broke the camels back, for them. Everyone (but the few gifted intelligencia. spelling?) hated it. My rep was over. To this day: if warren loves it, (excepts those few) "better stay clear." Anyway, I'm grooving in Florida for the week, but I just received, before leaving, from Netflix: King of Hearts. Can't wait. That's going to be my New Years film. Been waiting a long time to find this baby. Since signing up with Netflix, my film dreams are coming true. How's this for getting off the Run Lola Run rap? I suppose this is what happens when I'm up at 5am, waiting for the sun so I can run. later...warren

        Bagdag Cafe belongs to the so-called " cult " films, it is half so good as it is ( ! ) but still I liked it much, even if the pleasure disminished after every one and each viewing.
        Le Roi de Coeur? Wish you much fun with it! Let us know...
