keeps us guessing on that one just increases the interest in the plot; don't feel silly in the least. Why I use "obscure" is I never saw this as a release originally, have almost never seen it discussed in terms of Antonioni or Jack Nicholson, and only got to see it at all because I was browsing some 2nd hand videos in a store here a couple years back and bought it because it was an Antonioni title I'd simply never seen. When I watched it and realised it was one of his best efforts; no, I'll go one further than that; his BEST film IMHO,
In Japan in 1999, Sony or Victor or whoever own the rights to Antonioni's films (and everything else besides), reissued Wide Screen HiFi versions of "Blow Up", "Zabriskie Point" with much advertising and fanfare as VHS and DVD formats, so I couldn't believe that 25 years after it's release I finally pick this up. As for the "blank screen" review; I've so seldom read any review that corresponded to my opinion of the same film I tend to ignore them. Maybe the reviewer had 1,000 words and a deadline and never even saw it. The only reviewer I've read with a balanced and intelligent view of filmmaking was a woman that used to write for the New Yorker, and to my embarrasment I cannot recall her name.....getting old....(Diane?)
