Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

I haven't really warmed up to it yet

I love the opening dream sequence, and certain elements are really striking: The late-night "dance" down the hotel corridor, for instance, or the brightly sunlit spa with Wagner blaring overhead. But other portions, including the movie-production-as-circus scenes seem kind of forced in order to bring the movie to a close.

My opinion might change somewhat with repeated viewings however! It wouldn't be the first time that a gem revealed itself to me only after the 3rd or 4th viewing: I found Jacques Tati's Hulot movies and Jour De Fete cute but kind of boring at first, but now they're among my favorites. The very lack of a central plot made them kind of frustrating at first, but after awhile, you enjoy the things for the experience rather than any simple story.
