I've taken some very angry spew heaped on me for asking, "What the hell was that turd I just saw all about, anyway?" ("Apocalypse Now") But it is in still only in my fantasies that someone of an outstandingly kindly and tolerant nature will appear in my life just long enough to explain my "What The Fuck?" to me in lucid terms that I might grasp for my much needed epiphany regarding that "filmic event" so that I may, at least in part, join with the rest of humanity on yet one more count. <br><br>--Bat<br>[/quote]<br>I think I'm dumb, but what does this mean and how is it related to my quote?<br><br>Please explain (in monosyllabic woids)

The thing about the movie that hit me was the "craziness of war" thing, and the Doors "The End" at the start was a knockout.<br>Cheers, Snarf

[quote author=dumpty link=board=general;num=1035941944;start=135#140 date=05/31/03 at 09:41:40]My always favorite movie is " Dream" by Akira Kurosawa.  I specially like the first one, second one, and last one. ('Dream' has several short film in it.)[/quote]<br><br>My favorite short film in "Dream" is the one with the soldier/ghost coming out of the tunnel.  (I don't remember which segment it was.)  It was just so haunting...and sad.   :'(  It left the strongest impression on me from the entire film.<br><br>My least favorite short film in "Dream" is the one which has Martin Scorsese (of all people) playing the part of Vincent Van Gogh!!!    I know that he and Akira were friends but...I simply cannot get over the Brooklyn accent!  Baaaad casting call!  :P<br><br><br><br>Definitely an incredibly beautiful film.   <br><br>Gypsy Moon Dream

Oooops...I forgot to mention my favorite film.   ;D<br><br>OK...it's "Mac"...an Indie written-by/starring/directed-by John Turturro (my favorite actor...what "range"!)<br><br>It's just a "personal" fave.  The main character is based heavily (if it's not an out-and-out biography) of John's dad and he just reminds me of my own dad...especially since my dad's a carpenter who was born in Spain and the main character is a carpenter of Italian descent.  <br><br>Just the whole "honest work ethic" aspect moved me.  Plus...there are some really funny scenes in it, too...as in any great drama.   <br><br>It's about Life and Family.   <br><br>Gypsy Moon Dream
