In Reply to: A brilliant movie from the Czech Republic, "Autumn Spring." posted by tinear on May 19, 2006 at 07:18:28:
And yes. It is a good film and all that...But WS is a work of exception.
No way to compare both of them.Too much pinot of Oregon, heu?
Follow Ups:
yes, lots of good ones, lately.
But... last night, odd you mention it, I had a wonderful Pinot from Faively: '96 Grand Cru "Eschezaux."
I couldn't resist it when I saw it on the winelist, obviously mis-priced.
Anyhow, it was medium-bodied, still w/some tannins present, not much sediment thrown, a nice browning beginning in the crimson color, and a taste of... port beginning in the finish.
I've only once before had that flavor, with an Oregon pinot of about the same age. Is this a common "end" for Pinot? It is, after all, the same grape in both, no?
I had a 2002 grand Cru Eschezaux, not long ago with the boss of vineyard telling us his analyse on the year.
Pinot is just the best of all of them, the most intellectual and not for the apprentice but for the connaisseur.
The real fanatic.
That do not mean, of course that you can not find your paradise somewhere else, bien sure.
The same grape but nor the same soil, nor the same micro climat.
Port? Hum...I mean everything is possible, it may depend on many things.
But I never had this feeling in my taste with it.
But I must say I am not a great specialist on this particular wine.
to drink much of anything else, I agree.
After drinking mostly Oregon Pinot for 12 or 13 years, we're branching out to Burgundy, which used to be my favorite area in my younger days.
At some point, we're moving to the area of California famous for its Pinot. So... I'll have three comparison points.
Pity you don't fly... (or, rather, utilize mechanical bodies which do).
I did fly and a lot. But I am working hard to do it again.
Who knows?
I just try my first bottle of...Pinot noir from...Corse*. ( and a Chardonnay )
Do you really want a comment?* Curiosity almost killed the cat.
PS: Not that bad ,reminding me of wine from...Greece somehow.
but it suffers from what is, quite obviously, improvisation in key scenes. The scene between the man and wife in the car is just embarrassingly overdone. No one has a sense of humor. In the end, many of the characters in WS and other Bergman films are so depressing, fatalistic, self-absorbed (this especially) that they become mechanical. I certainly don't care what the hell happens to them. Human beings, seldom, are so one-dimensional. Pity Bergman didn't spend some time in Italy...
Not at all. Nothing is over done! It is just the depiction of true life as it may be.
Not every one has o sole mio in his mind and character.
In fact I think it was an opimistic film.
Leaning on Dali and on psychoanalyse.
