| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn incoherent dream-like story that lyrically traces the last half-century in the life of a stressed-out Greek-American filmmaker telling his family's story... . |

| User ReviewDavid Sso poetic, beautiful... comfortable and can feel the tention breathtakingly beautiful....i saw twice in consecutive days |
| User ReviewNick POne of the few movies of today that have really something to say..Not an easy movie for sure!!Amazing work.. |
| User ReviewLilian WMy least favorite film by Angelopolous and yet there were some great things there; the great cinematography I came to except from this magnificent artist, a wonderful performance from Bruno Ganz and more surprisingly,from Irene Jacob, who proved she's not just an angelic pretty face; but the thing I liked the most was how he used a high-sensitivity film to make the grains appear like dust throughout the film. The weakest point for me was William Dafoe. |
| User ReviewCarsten SNice.... Many were confused but it was great... i think i lost a big oportunity to get a pic with Theo... [I'm the fisrt to rate?? Damn... :)] |
| User ReviewLinda SJust like dust itself, can be annoying at times, beautifully breathtaking at times, but in any case without it, life won´t be what it is. |
| User ReviewLucia JI thought it's gonna be boring and heavy, but not at all. What a beautiful movie with wonderful music. I was too young to understand Angelopoulos, now I just know I was so wrong. |
| User ReviewRegent LNot the best Angelopoulos, nevertheless he remains faithfull to his high standards cinematography. Beautiful story but it lacks that certain greek background that make Angelopoulos the only director that can describe Greek-ism without being vulgar. |
| User ReviewZoran SVery minor Angelopoulos. It's the only film of his that I've seen that feels rushed and hurried and his theatrical self-reflexivity a bad fit with the material. Moreover, much of its visual style diverges from his prior films: medium shots dominate and there is even some cross-cutting (!!!!) to save screen time. No doubt, Angelopoulos wanted a more immediate look for the film to fit its story. The problem, however, is that the personal and the historical don't marry very well at all here: the love triangle and the history of exiles shown here from the death of Stalin to Europe in 1999 don't connect in any real emotionally resonate way. There are some powerful sequences here, such as when a town honors Stalin's death, but this is more a series of fragmented sketches than anything else. It also looks to be shot on HD (and not especially well at times) though the website says 35mm. Perhaps it will improve on a second viewing. |
