D'oh! How could I forget Cassavetes? Thanks, macdaddy! I love most films by John Cassavetes.

I also forgot Werner Herzog, in particular "Aguirre, the Wrath of God," "Fitzcarraldo," and "My Best Fiend."

"Naked" by Mike Leigh.

And last but certainly not least, "El Topo" (written, directed and starring Alejandro Jodorowsky).

(I just can't help it. I love movies.)

You love weird, willfully artsy, elitist films. Me too! I liked just about every film you mentioned.

My faves:

1) Passion of the Christ
2) Pasolini's Il Vangelo Secondo Matteo
3) Life of Brian

Guilty as charged! Pasolini is another favorite! I love his novel, "A Violent Life," as well. As for Mel Gibson, his "Apocalypto" is incredible. I like comedies as well, but there simply isn't enough room to accomodate them all here.

I was actually kidding about Mel Gibson, although I do want to see Apocalypto.

Pasolini's Salo is just about the most disturbing film I've ever seen.

Yes, Amadeus is really well done, one of my top 3 movies, it really takes one back to that period of time, fantastically done, I never heard to much more about Tom Hulce, he did a outstanding role as Mozart, but it was the guy who played the guy who was jealous of Mozart genius that won the Oscar, he did a fantastic acting role.

I knew you were kidding about Mel Gibson, but Apocalypto is stunningly realistic, and the end is just a mindblower.

Actually, I do love weird, willfully artsy, disturbing films, but I've never thought of them as being elitist. More like what film ought to be. I feel the same about television. Such a waste of a potentially great medium. They pander to the lowest common denominator, hence the "dumbing down" of not only America, but the rest of the world. Film and television could be so much more. Thankfully, we're still able to see great films. I wish I could say the same for television. And the printed page is becoming obsolete. These days it's nearly impossible to find kids who like to read. I loved to read when I was a kid and still do. It's how you find out about everything else, including art and history - two subjects that people are sorely ignorant of these days. Okay, end of rant. Smiley
