Legend of 1900 (Film Review In Progress)
While on the great search for the remote of my circa 1992 TV/VCR I found my unviewed copy of Tim Roth's film, "The Legend of 1900". Since partaking of my "Lie to Me" obsession, I've re-watched my favorite Roth films. For some unknown reason I hadn't gotten around to this DVD.
So far I've only seen the first 5 minutes, and I already am in love with the tone of the film. It's Ennio Moriccone's opening score of which I already am in love with; guess it doesn't take much for me...but I love films that contain a sense of the classic noir and sentimental feel. Giuseppe Tornatore is the director of the film, and made such classics like "Cinema Paradiso". Tornatore's magic is his ability to tell a story with heart and an acute poignancy you would be inhuman not to feel something.
I'm gonna finish watching right now, and post the full review.
