Holy Joe (1999)
A perfuming, solitary flower in the midst of refuse!
I entirely agree with the comments dated 29 March 1999, both from USA, about "Holy Joe". I watched just today, by chance, this TV-movie, which has been superficially translated in Italian as "L'uomo dei miracoli" (i.e."The Miracles' Man"!). It quickly captured my disechanted attention and - scene by scene - I discovered a work of great delicacy and intimate signification. With regards, Riccardo
Love Story (1944)
Masterpiece of poetry; may be Phillis Calvert was in the cast?
The first time I saw "Love Story" it was in London fifty years ago, and till now, when I take this movie into consideration, I unceasingly hear - together with the accurate, majestic and melancholic theme of Hubert Bath "Cornish Rhapsodie" - the sea-mews flying and crying on the cliff! In my opinion, "Love Story" is a masterpiece of poetry: a simple film that was able to speak to the heart of a generation of people concerned in the most terrific war, and who understood the charm of hope and of life.
