myth

Rating: Null/10 (15 December 2012)

a masterpiece ? a good film ? the worst ? no. only a myth. too long, too confuse. a kind of movie for a time and for a public. because if Oscar Welles genius is certitude, the value of his film is only a puzzle. the script, the dialogs, the lights, the image, the story, all as a sand castle. portrait of a poor rich man, skin for a strange word, chronicle for a very impressive fresco, moral lesson and parable, it is only slice of a image. a huge fairy tale about solitude and narcissism, it is a pyramid who needs admiration. but can be more ? I don' t know. for me it is only basket for my memories. illustration for wise words: "Vanitas vanitatum, omnia vanitas". drawing with struggle against yourself. model for a society in middle of values crisis. is it enough ? may be.
