I remember Ebert raving about this movie many years ago and I watched it then and also a few months back. It is a terrificly over the top Greenaway effort with witty dialogue and vogue images.
I just wondered what you thought of it - if you did see it...

I haven't. Missed it then and never caught up, but meant to. Perhaps will see it now, will add it to the queue.
Well I love DC...and also... - Harmonia 21:55:56 03/06/07 (0)
A Zed & Two Noughts
Drowning By Numbers
In The Belly of an Architect
Prospero's Books
The Pillow Book
But Draughtsman's Contract is my personal favorite. Took foresver for this to come out on DVD.
The shorts can be fun too, although they're more or less concept pieces, not entertainment per se.
I haven't seen Greenaway's most recent films. I have The Baby of Macon in a terrible quality VHS version.
