I miss the days of great French mystery/thrillers by Claude Chabrol, the fabulous Italian films with Monica Vitti , Sophia, Gina,and Claudia, the fantasies of Fellini, the grit of De Sica, the westerns of Sergio Leone, the spectacles of David Lean, the surprises of Hitchcock, and so so much more... I think younger generations really have been deprived of the "magic of the movies".. today's movies are so "small", so smugly self-absorbed, so miserably over-marketed and hyped that people are afraid to say they "stink"...I mean, really, wtf was so good about American Hustle?
