...more entertaining than Children of Men. When I reviewed "V" quite awhile back I gave it 4 1/2 on a 5 star scale, but I also proffered caveats (see link below). Moreover, I do consider Brazil and Clockwork Orange great films (5 star masterpieces) and, if we must provide rankings, all are superior to Children of Men IMHO, which I'd probably give 3 1/2 stars or 4 stars.>>> "Was it ever any other way with Mr. Philander?" <<<
Hmmm, well, if you say so then I guess it must be true, right? (~;^D) But in case you've forgotten I praised Children of Men and supplied valid reasoning for my reservations. Apparently I'm butting heads with folks who want to bypass AMPAS and use the 'lost poetic waxing process' to cast their own virtual best Picture Oscars (grin). Considering the positivity of my review I wasn't expecting to be attacked on a personal basis.
BTW, I don't mind your calling me "Mr. Philander" rather than by my proper moniker or the abreviation (AuPh) if you don't mind folks taking the liberty of refering to you as 'KAFKA Steve' based on your reading too much existential foo into the ambiguities of CoM! ;^)
As always, no offense intended.
