John Water's Pink Flamingos shows one too with great details and some moves.

Les films du miroir magique
31Aug11
Grande déception après avoir enfin vu ce film. L'idée de la calligraphie sur la peau est belle, donne lieu à quelques beaux plans, mais le film manque de tension, de rythme. Vu avec quinze ans de retard, le recours à la technique des incrustations paraît daté. Je l'aimais dans le Dante, ici je le trouve peu convainquant. Dommage. Mais j'attends le prochain Greenaway, en espérant qu'il pourra encore nous étonner.

I thought that this movie communicated a feeling rather than a narrative. It spoke of culture, traditions, identity, modernity, art, sex and taboos. All that within 2 hrs. Its a good introduction to the actual "Pillow Book" and it had interesting camera work, use of musical cues & the editing is amazing. Transitions used were creative and never belabored the viewer with style. A good movie, but has limited appeal.

Unlike the author of the last post here, I rather liked this film. I appreciated it the same way I appreciate Japanese art: as a slow, controlled story expanding. It certainly isn't for everyone but it's a nice compliment to Greenaway's other works.
