It's certainly "of its era." I like it very well, but not everyone will.

My mother (Japanese) loves the movie. But she loves Elvis Presley. Cinematography and camera works were excellent. I just got tired of some characters and dialogues.

    Though I could be wrong, that's enough nonsense.

    The last movie I watched was Colossus, The Forbin Project, an old favorite I first saw on TV in the early '70s. For a film from 1970 to still be the best one about the dangers of AI is noteworthy.

I've known and loved Stanley Donen's Charade forever, yet it didn't occur to me until this viewing that that's Ned Glass playing Gideon. After all these years, still great fun!

Vivien Leigh I believe only sat through it once. She was said to comment something like, "It was hard on one's arse."  :P

La Jetée (1962, dir. Chris Marker)

First viewing, after my film-oriented nephew dubbed it "best short film of all time." He might be right; it is certainly an acceptable candidate for that honor. An intense half-hour in black-and-white, constructed totally from still photographs, about a man traveling between the past and the future. Incredible imagery, coupled with an imaginative soundtrack.
