Saluti a Roger Ebert!!! over 4 years ago

Any one interested in films should consider the essays of Roger Ebert . It will open your eyes and help rethink on your opinions on a certain film and maybe help you appreciate it even more. His great movies list is a fascinating way to explore and expand your knowledge of the cinema. He made it easier for me to appreciate movies and give second chances to films I neglected or just didn’t understand. It would be a privilege to meet him and watch a movie with him.

I need help on what to buy and am going to be selfish and make a post that is meaningless to everyone but me. about 4 years ago

I would recommend getting THE DECALOGUE through amazon it only cost like $50 or so and you would still be able to keep you’re $30 gift card and get yourself a new RE-release of THE SEVENTH SEAL or MARIENBAD, and since your planning on getting it until June I’m pretty sure you’ll be able to get a little bit more money by then in case $80 is not enough.
As for the Bergman trilogy I think that one cost around seven dollars more than THE DECALOGUE (trough Amazon)
Hopefully I helped with your dilemma.

What film scenes really make you cry? about 4 years ago

These scenes don’t really make me cry but they do get my eyes watery:
the telephone conversation in the Diving Bell and the Butterfly with Max Von Sydow as the father
The last seen in Late Spring
The ending of Umberto D
The Passion of Joan of Arc when she sheds her first tears(which was strange because I didn’t felt that way the first time I saw it)
Oh and a lot the close-ups from Casablanca man are those something,just the way they look at each other towards the end…
that’s all i could think of for now.
