What movie left you feeling in awe after you left the movie theater?For me, it was the Great Beauty. I knew I wanted to become a dispassionate lounging intellectual in a dying country afterwards. I was 17.
I went to a close alley and tried to puke after this unironically. I felt revolted for days.
>>201686765>For me, it was the Great Beauty.Same, but not with nearly as cringe of a result. kekIt is a stunning film and I'm glad I wasn't disappointed by Youth or The Young Pope either (The New Pope felt forced, for the most part). However platitudinous it may sound, Sorrentino is a visual poet in the truest sense.

I barely watch films I haven't seen at home nowadays.
Day of the Locust s. It was a crazy book & then I caught it on TV several years later not knowing.
