Billy Crystal?!?!?  Most of the real contenders aren't released yet.
Also look for "Malcolm X" to take a truckload of awards;  Best Actor

which only allows minors in if they are accomp'ed by an adult, such as

Falconetti was a French actress who appeared in Dreyer's "The Passion of
Joan of Arc".  She never did another film.  Perhaps because she decided
to quit while she was on top - her performance as Joan is one of the
great film performances, and perhaps the least seen of the great ones.
Partially because she isn't a familiar face, but mostly because of her
immense talent, beautifully naturalistic acting style, and fearlessness,
Falconetti is utterly convincing as St. Joan.  

Anyone who's thinking about making a Joan of Arc movie should see Dreyer's
first, and then decide whether they still want to bother, since he did
it so very, very well.  (Of course, he deals exclusively with her trial
and execution, leaving aside the sort of spectacle that Hollywood prefers.)
The film is also of interest for theater scholars, as one of the other
performers is Antonine Artaud, creator of the theory of Theater of
Cruelty and a major figure in the French arts in the twenties and thirties.

I didn't like Hopkins "comic relief" much.  I think it lessened
his performance and lessened the tension in the film (and
was downright silly in a couple of places).  I thought the
character of Van Helsing was a weak point in the film.

This was one thing I wondered about in the film.  In the autobiography,
you get alot of information about his relationships with his family
(such as his aunt in Boston and, as you said above, his brother's 
letters sent to him in prison).  I know because of time limitations,
this was the best way for Spike Lee to keep the story focused, however,  
I really felt that at least his childhood could have been elaborated
on in greater detail.

I also liked the use of startling gunshot sounds in certain scenes
throughout the movie which foreshadowed what was to come and seemed to
reflect what was written in his autobiography about his feelings
that he would die in this manner.   In addition to Denzel Washington's
incredible performance, I was extremely impressed with the actress
who played Betty -- I think her performance was as Oscar-worthy 
as his.  (If someone knows the name of this actress, I would appreciate
the information).

All in all, I think Spike Lee has outdone himself this time and I
recommend this movie highly to everyone.

Yes, I agree that both Ballard and Greenaway recycle their
themes/patterns/obsessions. To me, these are two of the few
people whose work I still find interesting even though I've
`absorbed' much of it. I remember when starting reading
`Empire of the Sun', after being a Ballard fan for ages,
suddenly realising (sometimes I'm a bit dim...) that he had
been writing about Shanghai all the time.

I guess we go from here to a discussion on the nature of the
artist...

two other bits of PG trivia:

1) When I saw him for an evening of talks/filmshowings
several years ago, he talked about `Tristram Shandy' being
one of his favourite books. Any PG fans should give it a go - 
a wonderful book (OK, I guess most alt.postmodern readers will
already have done this - but remember I'm in an Electronics
Department ;-)

2) A year or so ago, Dillons in London had the book props
for `Prospero's Book's' in the window - `A book of Earth', etc.
Wonderful. I like the illustrated screenplay more than the film,
I think.

What with all the hype for the new Bram Stoker Dracula movies, I am
reminded of the best vampire flick ever made, to wit Near Dark. The
setting was contemporary, and the characters hair raising. The cast had a
large overlap with the Aliens 2 movie, Lance Henrikson, Jenette Goldstien,
and the guy who played Hudson in Aliens (can't remember his name).

Sound track was terrific, good notes from Tangeren Dream.

I thouht the exploding vampire effect was rather good also.

Ah, but did you see it on a 50" rear proj. TV with Surround sound?
It MUST be seen like this to be fully appreciated. The sound and

There is one and only one reason why I think and hope you might be wrong:
_Jaws_.  Now _there_ is a damn fine, scary, suspenseful movie.  If Steven
can dig past all the kiddie dreck (_Hook_, _Goonies_, bleh) of the last
fifteen years, and go for the adrenalin, _Jurassic Park_ will be GREAT.
And there aren't many directors with the clout to get the money that
_Jurassic Park_ will take to do well....

Maybe not in this case, but is true in many other cases.  It seems to me that many films are loaded with swear words not to relate any real emotion or a sense of reality, but rather to make people uneasy and therefore susceptible to cheap tricks and effects.  Or to simply appeal to a younger crowd and make more money.

I think the peddler was included to begin the story with mystery and
