Waiting For Godot

Rating: Null/10 (25 January 2006)

Incredible, "Waiting For Godot" was exactly what I felt when the movie opens with Roberto Benigni and Steven Wright. Roberto departs with the intent of seeing the dentist instead of Steven Wright. The background with a very dilapidated door and a scribbled wall is almost theatrical in the first scene is a dead giveaway that "Waiting For Godot" was an inspiration for this movie.
The opening scene also sets the mood for the film. I also want to understand why the words in this scene get repeated in another scene with Bill Murray and the Wu Tang clan guys. I wonder what the correlation could have been.
Either way, it is a great experiment in film making. Almost textbook style. It is very subtle without being pedantic.
