pasolini is great but can often put me to sleep. the look of that movie is awesome though-- not sure what you mean by amateurish?
for a different medea, check out the lars von trier version if you can find it. it's slightly bizarre and i really liked it. bad dvd transfer but the great visual language come through regardless./QUOTE]
Maybe it was just my copy but there was some nauseating camera work. Perhaps it was intentional? Either way it turned me off. For the most part great though.
I'm a big fan of the play and what I loved was how real he made the story be. It felt like it was from another world but also very human.
Will check out the Von Trier. I'm actually a bit ashamed to say he's a filmmaker I've never really given the time of day.
