It came out the same year as the vastly inferior, homophobic "54" and was a real departure for Whit Stillman. I do have his two other efforts, "Metropolitan" and "Barcelona", on DVD. This one did feel like a bit of an oddity with so much high minded talking and not exactly the decadence and noise one would equate with the period. However, he did capture the dramatic transitions in moods that happened in a matter of months and sent a nation on the madness of electing Reagan.Ladrón de Basura (a.k.a.

I'm not sure if you were there from your blog entry, but I know I presented it.<BR/><BR/>It is one of my favorite movies. I couldn't tell you anything about the transition from the 70s to the 80s because I was mostly worried about playing with my Star Wars action figues, but I love that it was such a carefree time. <BR/><BR/>It's a very difficult movie to buy online. I got a relatively inexpensive copy of it online - 32 dollars. I'm sure you've looked and a few go for almost 100 dollars or more. It's insane!<BR/><BR/>I love watching it because the music makes me happy, and as brilliantly insane as Chloe is in her personal life she is a fantastic actress when she chooses the right acting roles.<BR/><BR/>Fantastic Choice!Breezyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13163404643800593137noreply@blogger.com
