Bertolucci adapting Borges. Gorgeous. Much preferred it to The Conformist. Shades of The Third Man and The Passenger.



The poster's great too.

watching this now always watch a film if versh recomends it. hes the only one on here with good taste in films. very conservative taste, like me. no weird shit. no arty shit. proper films.

quite liked it. 6.5 out 1o. let down by being incomprehensible and having some arty moments. the colours were nice

What was incomprehensible about it?

What was incomprehensible about it?

not knowing what was going on at any point.
