This movie is a phenomenon

Rating: Null/10 (2 February 1999)

Ok, the fools who claim this movie is too slow or too long are completely without taste. This film is a scathing masterpiece from beginning to end. It is difficult to comprehend how this movie has drifted into relative obscurity. It is sometimes hard to find in video stores and to my knowledge is unavailable on DVD. I have decided not to purchase a DVD player until this spectacle of sight and sound is available on the format. This movie is a stunning example of cinematography at its best. Every scene is composed to perfection. It is photography come to life, and the story is a brilliant satire that speaks to all aspects of life. Too literary my ass. The elegant dialogue has a remarkable style with desert dry wit. This is a tragic story of the dreamer defeated by society. Check it out.
