In Reply to: It is not French,not even Italien..but a gem, it is...little posted by Patrick UITZ on April 22, 2002 at 10:45:40:
Ah, Patrick, so one must look towards the Continent for these things, eh? Perhaps seeking them in US film is as frustrating as finding good wine or food here, too? S'il vous plait, mon ami...get a grip.
You may see a high percentage of Fr and It films that you'd rate as witty and sophisticated, but those are the ones that get imported. The typical European film is no more intellectually satisfying than our typical offering. Rudeness, crudeness, and grossness are the currency of the developed nations. Perhaps the US is guilty for leading the way, but we have no lock on the collapse of courtly manners.
For a current witty, sophisticated American example, I direct you to your local multiplex and Robert Altman's "Gosford Park."
I'd be interested in perusing a list of recent Fr and It films that meet your criteria...
