My use of "last fim" would've probably been better served by "latest film". Yeah, Kubrick was extremely "hit and miss", his "last" film was pretty awful to be sure.
Without Anthony Quinn, "La Strada" would be unrepeatable by any Director; Fellini included. I think many of AQ's films were so indelibly stamped with his unique brand of joie de vivre that only Quinn could have played those characters. Such is the nature of such rarified and collosal talent; it is unrepeatable.
I was using "La Strada" more as an emphasis of the type of quality Film Woody Allen I'm sure is capable of; moreover, what I expect from him.
I notice on the forum you have mentioned "Solaris" many times, are you familiar with Tarkovsky's "The Stalker?"
Thanks for the "have fun in Tokyo"; please enjoy the USA, I doubt you could do anything but enjoy, it's a great place too!

When I think of La Strada the first thing that I see is Masina's face, and only then AQ's. I always thought SHE made the film. But there is little question, they both were great there. And as far as her best role that is Cabiria... no ifs... Unforgettable and soooo human... soooo un-Hollywood.See my comments at top of this page re. Stalker. Maybe I should reread the novel and THEN try again.
America IS a great place. But my wife would go again to Japan in a microsecond. Many Westerners feel uncomfortable there, but we felt completely at ease each time.
