i was meaning to rewatch it this past halloween season. now i'm in the middle of the farces.
speaking of farces (voluntary or involuntary ones) have you seen SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE? it's about the making of nosferatu. some indie/malkovich thing. i did, didn't like it much, though some people might. don't wanna throw spoilers yet so i won't comment why in this post (maybe in another one i might)

Kicked off the new year with two new ones for me!

i got the rentals-- netflix is great for that. i got it like the day after it was released & held on to it for a proper occasion.
as for the transfers--- it's this place in bologna called "l'immagine ritrovatta" that's doing amazing work with these films. like, seriously madly great. they're my cultural heroes for 2016. the image quality in the roma bluray is simply spectacular. THAT FASHION SHOW. will haunt your dreams.
i'm making a note of your other movies to watch later in the year. i'm focused on farces and satires at the moment, due to some lunatic seasonal scheme i've adopted. yeah...
