Recommend to me... 1. a movie 2. a book 3. a musical artist, song, or album 4. a LiveJournal user not on my friend's list 5. what I should have for dinner 6. a website and put it in a comment and then put this in your journal
Hope you get emails on comments to old posts! Just want to say a very big thanks for Children of Paradise. I got the wonderful new edition with very insightful commentary. It's a real treat--I really love all the plays within plays and art/life mirrorings. Arletty is incredible! I can't believe it's called the French Gone with the Wind--it's so much better than that.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it - and pleased to note that it is now out in DVD! I have trekked to some very obscure cinemas all over London to catch it, and it hasn't been revived for quite some time.
Yeah--the Criterion Collection DVD is the one I bought. The commentary, etc., is really rich. And the quality is lovely. Actually, I got it a few weeks ago and then refound your post when I went back to check on some book recommendations. I really bought it for our departmental film course (I'm not the one who teaches it) but liked it so much I decided to keep it and get them another copy!
