Les Whatever. NOT A CLASSIC. VERY BORING TO WATCH.
submitted by Tassos on December 26, 2018, 1:22pm
I got this and other movie dvds from "top movies ever made' lists.
If you really believe this is "Citizen Kane" caliber, you will be very shockingly mistaken.
If your time is valuable, you will not be able to sit for more than a few minutes to watch this boring garbage.
It's been a few years, but I recall it being atmospheric and poetic. submitted by lisa on August 1, 2019, 1:11pm Did it cross the line into treacle? I cannot recall.
