In Reply to: WS was my first IB, in college. And only my second foreign flick! posted by clarkjohnsen on March 19, 2007 at 10:19:41:

was what it might have been like to see this in an earlier time... when it was more revolutionary (and/or just to be seeing it in a theater). I have to admit that I had to work a little upfront to let it take me for a ride as many things in it are almost the stuff of later student film cliches. Once I put that out of my head and got into it it was easy to see the brilliance of the work.

Yes, I did see it with subtitles. Don't know if they were redone. It's a Critereon Collection disc so MAYBE they sorted some of that out. Still couldn't tell it was an abortion scene in that dream. Who's? I may have to see it again and really think about that. Maybe it was just about swimming in the collective unconscious as when he came out of that dream he was told the story of his son's reaction to his daughter in law's pregnancy.

Don't piss on my shoe and tell me it's raining.
