10/10
pure intelligence
20 March 2006
After watching this wonderfully original film, I could not help but ponder how in the world the writer managed to obtain the means for production, to put this story onto film. We are lucky those who read the script had the calm vision to see the genius. This is an absolute masterpiece of film making. As another member commented, many directors are afraid to allow the natural human pace to guide the energy of the film. Indeed, the tempo of the characters is core to the essence of the film and is truly educating. Everything works in this film, the dialogue the characters, the period. The movie reaches that special level of intelligence where it could easily come across boring, but every second keeps you captivated. And that is pure magic. The acting is impeccable and the dialogue utterly brilliant. This is a film that people will be watching hundreds of years from now. I give it a 10 out of 10, it is perfection.
