Unfortunately, most people can't stomach this self-obsessed stuff, what a director puts out when they think they're so good, everything they touch is gold. Same with most European movies, it's just not to North American taste. We need some action, we look to the future, don't wallow so much in our past personal experiences...sure it's trite, but at least it's not boring Euro-trite. [P.S. I'm not counting British directors as European...] I suppose this is obvious, since European films generally don't do well here. Deservedly so, IMO. Canadian films are too much like European films, as though it has to be weird to be "good". But then, I have never regarded film as art, strictly entertainment. It might have been art up until the '20's, but has been propaganda and entertainment ever since.
