... that you prefer "a lot of the cheese that passes for 'stimulating' film fare?"BTW, I removed my earlier post because it displayed a bit more sarcasm than intended (i.e., except about the painting; that's the real deal and it's still $4000 plus shipping!).
In all seriousness, I'm not ridiculing you or your taste in film, but merely attempting to express my own impressions of Solaris (aka The Never Ending Tunnel Story)! If you want to label guys as "John Bloke" or whatever just because they prefer watching rousing film fare while relaxing in comfortable stadium theater seats over the Sundance & Cannes crowd's so-called cerebral flicks oozing with low-key symbolism and usually given limited release in smelly run down art houses, well that's fine by me. And if you wish to insinuate that those of us who like our films with a bit of tension and excitement only have an IQ of around 40, well, what the hey, go right ahead; knock yourself out.
