the most serious W.A. movie
there is really nothing to laugh in it, but it is
not a drama either, just a silent psychologic
movie
i remember how dissapointed people have leaved
the cinema after the first 20 min because they
have expected a comedy or at least the typical
W.A. style, but since he isn't playing even by
himself in that movie, so he was free to make his
first "not W.A." movie
maybe along that movie the true W.A. fans splitt
from those, who like just some intellectual
comedies

a second not so funny &
not so neurotic W.A. movie, this time the people
were more used to the new seriosity
that movie reminds me strongly to Fellini's
