P.S. How did you like Grand Illusion?

I’ve seen this a good many times going back to the early 60s. One of the reasons that I consider this a masterpiece is that I find something new to love every time. That and the fact that the film’s (and Renoir’s) essentiall humanity tells us all something about how we conduct ourselves, and how we should conduct ourselves.
I think that this is a monument to the human spirit. And besides, it is technically so well crafted, that even if it were not we would still be watching to learn the filmmakers’ art. Out of four: :star: :star: :star: :star:

 

[Rob Tomlin]

I agree with your comments re: Grand Illusion Lew. Damn, I have way too many Criterion Collection titles on my wish list!

 

[Mike Hutman]

We have are first tie. Sleepy Hollow and Dragonslayer are all knotted up at 4 to 4. I'll let them go until tomorrow, then I'll flip a coin.
Here is the next match up.

5)Something Wicked This Way Comes
VS
15)The Dark Crystal

 

[Brian Kissinger]

Damn, these are tough match-ups. I feel like Justin over in the Horror Tourney. [Justin Mode] I cherish both these movies and deciding between them is like Hell itself. They are both masterpieces. I have to flip a coin.[/Justin Mode] Well shit. I'll go with The Dark Crystal.
