That would be you, Victor

I see you as the rigid and closed minded one, without a doubt. Unlike you, I can enjoy both quality films from outside the US and US made films, even ones from Hollywood. I can enjoy gross and juvenile comedies or warm human stories, regardless of where they are from.

On the other hand, YOU can only enjoy 3rd world films where all the characters are "real" and the story is a slice of life that revels in the local customs, regional charm and "human warmth".

I'm sure this Czech movie you mention is nice, it's received some excellent press. But just because this is the only type of film YOU deem worthy of your time does not mean it's the only type of film that everyone else does.

Every movie is not art. It makes no pretentions of being art. It's supposed to be entertainment. Everyone's idea of what entertainment is does not line up with your limited view.

What I'm saying is, why can't I like Autumn Spring AND Animal House?

Am I proud of Belushi and the Stooges? You better believe it. Because they skewer pompous and arrogant snobs like you. You simply can't laugh at someone making fun of you, so typical of the self-appointed cultural elite. If you can't laugh at yourself, you can't laugh at anything else either.

Regardless of your or my position on the matter, your constant harping on these matters is tedious at best. We all know you hate Hollywood and American film (unless it's some little indie film) already. Every time you make a post about something you like, you persist in mentioning how bad modern Hollywood films are. Talk about something else.
