Product: The Unbearable Lightness of Being (Two-Disc Special Edition) (2006)
Rating: 5.0
This one is for people who THINK as well as FEEL
Having read several of the more negative reviews about Philip Kaufman's masterpiece (even better than his more popular but engaging "The Right Stuff") I wonder WHY people with little intelligence bother to watch this film! Certainly, it takes some concentration, intelligence, and intellectual curiosity to enable enjoyment of this remarkable story, virtues these negative "reviewers" obviously don't possess. This is a great film, beautifully and sensitively acted, written, directed, and photographed. Everything about it glows with the talents of cinematic artists who know how to deliver a magnificant entertainment that not only allows the viewer to feel deeply, but also to ponder deep questions about politics as well as human relationships. And by the way, I'm not against negative or even hostile reviews of movies, or anything for that matter, but I do ask that those who give such reviews first know what they are talking about and have some degree of intelligence to enable what they are saying to have some credibility. Otherwise, keep your idiotic opinions to yourselves and save others the bother of reading tripe.
