make the same claim, and be just as wrong, about theatre, novels. It takes a Flaubert to make a Madame Bovary, after all.
To be great art, a film must do both, of course. But I didn't say this was a great effort, merely that it had artistic merit. Interesting ideas, characters, a bit of mystery and a bit of thought thrown in. Charlotte Rampling, I thought, did a very good job with a difficult role.
Now, the Fassbinder re-make...terrible. Good soft porn, but not much else to recommend. The protagonist was a pig with no redeeming merit, always a death shot.

I could simply state that one can - and many have - create a masterpiece with no identifiable subject matter, but the most interesting plot done with no imagination produces nothing but garbage.
