Pelle de veroveraar, Max von Sydow is geweldig.
De ballade van Narayama is heftig maar onvergetelijk.
Paris, Texas, wat een film.
Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Soderbergh was pas 26.
Pelle de veroveraar, Deense klassieker.
Kagemusha op groot scherm gezien in Eye, prachtig.
All That Jazz, Bob Fosse op zijn best.
The Mission, die muziek van Morricone…
Paris, Texas is een van mijn favoriete films ooit.
Yol samen met Missing, mooi jaar.
Goede lijst, mooi overzicht.
