Les uns et les autres (1981)
One of the best
I just got the Dutch-subtitled version on DVD this week. Almost impossible to get. The last time I saw this magnificent movie was 20 years ago, but it still works!!! For music lovers (who are usually also a bit sentimental) this movie is an absolute MUST. The build-up of the story is brilliant, one needs to see it several times to get everything right. I agree with other reviewers that James Caan was not very well cast. But still 10 out of 10. The way the stories intertwine is complicated but brilliant. In Holland it put Ravel's Bolero, which was originally composed as a ballet, back in the charts. I still hope to get the original six-hour version one day. If anyone has it on DVD (in whatever language), please let me know. If anyone is interested in the French version with Dutch subtitles,contact me and Í'll see what I can do.
Fleetwood Mac: The Dance (1997)
One of the best
Bought the DVD 3 weeks ago and already played it 20 times!!! What a reunion! Apart from the fabulous music (as previous reviewers have noted age has improved the performance) a relational mystery is going on. Try to decipher it while watching (I haven't figured it out yet). Stevie and Christine don't seem to fond of each other, for Mick it's all magic, John is, as always, in the background and Lindsey is just brilliant and seem to have taken distance from all that has happened in the past (but still likes Stevie a lot). Even if you only like Fleetwood Mac just a little, still BUY IT. It's worth every (Euro)cent. Best buy in years.
