- Haven't heard of any new projects, but I was wondering what you thought of
- that supersonic high-pitched singing in "Prospero"? I went to see it
- after a bottle of red wine was beginning to wear off and it significantly
- contributed to my headache. Other than that, I thought the film was
- visually AMAZING, esp. the Bottecellian sets and the artwork in the
- "books" themselves.
- You've got to see "Drowning By Numbers" (if you haven't already) its
- classic Greenaway. Large, overeating men and strange pervading
- themes--plus lots of roadkill.
