Pure Underground

Rating: Null/10 (4 March 1999)

PI is an engaging film. It has the visual quality of a very old pair of socks, washed with so many colored clothes, that it appears as though the characters have gray blood, and even that has drained away. In a sense, their blood has drained away, replaced with an almost foolish obsession with trying to understand the universe. We have all had such an experience; we believe that we have grasped some true insight into some idea, and then when we attempt to recapture that insight or articulate it - or, God forbid, develop it - we go bonkers. This movie is alot of fun, with a great soundtrack to boot.
