It's a crime "Brewster McCloud" isn't widely available.

Attractive and well directed, but something of a cracked-out plot that falls apart in the end. Still, a good watch, especially with a group.

One of the great strengths of this film is that Jessica Harper approaches everything not out of fear, but out of curiosity. A great protagonist, an incredibly interesting and beautiful film. I love how the red bleeds all over my VHS.

The accompanying documentary is worth the price alone! Fascinating!

Satan churning butter in mid-air is one delightful induring image.

Such a beautiful, exhilirating film! Must be seen!

So majestic.

I love this and Makavejev's films for depicting, in active, interesting ways, young women pursuing questions about politics.

A beautiful interpretation of the attractions and perils of consumerism and communism.

Dusan Makavejev took such an ecstatic approach to his subjects. I wish films like this one, about politics, were still being made.

I cannot wait to see this! Greenaway is one of my favorite directors, and I wish his work was more readily available.

I saw this in a music history class, and it was the most enjoyable instance of watching a movie for a class I've ever experienced. Andy Griffith erases all notion of him as his TV persona, he is so incredible in this role.

The most literal, effective illustration of precisely what fascism does.

Pinky washing her underwear after meeting Millie is an amazing detail!

Loved the detail of the nagging, suicidal ex-husband.

The last scene makes me choke, I've cried so hard every time. A very true circumstance. The documentarian simplicity gives the musical sequences a special feel.

Astonishing. Personally, I prefer this to un Chien Andalou with regards to purely surrealist pieces. Pure imagination.

I would love to see Drowning by Numbers readily available on DVD, it's such a fun, gorgeously done film.

A beautifully orchestrated reminder that cinema is to be considered and not consumed.

Comments on a deeply frustrating relationship between siblings in a way that many may not feel is particularly accurate or necessary. As it relates to circumstances in the life of this viewer, I enjoy it very much.

In a class of art with the likes of da Vinci and Schubert. The authenticity of the emotion and experience of Falconetti's performance are unparalleled in acting. There is nothing about this film that should be changed. It is a perfect example of cinema, and should be preserved as such.

I have large chunks of dialogue of this film memorized, I have seen it so often. And I never get tired of it. It is perfectly crafted, and everything drives it to that moment at the end - "aren't you its mother?"

I was absent the day that the Film Masterpieces class I was in last year screened this, and so I watched it alone in my room to catch up. I'm grateful because watching this in front of a crowd would have been awful. I started to cry every few minutes, and broke into pieces at the end. I can't think of a sadder film I've ever seen.

May very well be my favorite film. The most unnerving kind of "night adventure", tenderly lit by Christmas lights. The look of the film is brilliant - it glows, utilizing similar techniques as "Barry Lyndon". Jocelyn Pook's songs are worth their own gushing review. Requires a great deal of consideration and completely worthy of it.

My very favorite Lynch film, and favorite film in general. The epitome of evocation of a mood, and could be as effective silent were it not for all that the gorgeous sound design and soundtrack add. Absorbing, transformative, absolutely beautiful. And the back of the box has one of my favorite review blips: "colors that pop like a whore's lipgloss!"
