Kylo S Jan 26, 2019 "Spare me this catalog of mediocrity!" What a great film.
May 18, 2018 I have adored this film for many years. I am happy with its absurdities and bravura performances. I am also pleased it seems so distant from 21st Century sensibilities. Further, I can't help but suspect of a larger meaning lurking in it. See more
