Finally seen his italian, early masterpiece
released -60 and filmed -59
set on Aeolian islands and Sicily
while my mind oscillate
between passionate admiration
and confused indifference
like SnowBlack
most Beautiful character : ANNA (Lea Massari)
+ seven dwarfs
most Happy character : GIULIA (Dominique Blanchar)
most Grumpy character : CORRADO (James Addams)
most Sudden (Sneezy) character : GLORIA (Dorothy De Poliolo)
most Boring (Sleepy) character : SANDRO (Gabriele Ferzetti)
most Crazy (Dopey) character : PRINCE GOFFREDO (Giovanni Petrucci)
most Wise (Doc) character : PATRIZIA (Esmeralda Ruspoli)
most Bashful character : CLAUDIA (Monica Vitti)
or as Roger Ebert viewed this :
"...you
would assume the movie was about the search for Anna. It is not. It is about
the sense in which all of the characters are on the brink of disappearance;
their lives are so unreal and their relationships so tenuous they can barely be
said to exist. They are like bookmarks in life: holding places, but not
involved in the story."
Whole Movie
7 Beauty (SnowWhite)
4 Joy (Happy)
5 Conflict (Grumpy)
3 Thrill (Sneezy)
6 Process (Sleepy)
2 Humour (Dopey)
2 Idea (Doc)
6 Mystery (Bashful)
= 35
I give from 1 to 7 stars
again by 8 aspects of dwarfs
they become maximum 56 stars

my 55 Most Memorized 50's Movies
Never seen many movies at all from the 50's
but still more than I thought.
Since alot of 50's things feels very
meaningful now, I try to figure out
not which 55 I love most
rather which 55 I remember most of
which in turn reveals something
about how many times I have seen them
or how recently and
grade of great impression they've made
in order of reminiscence
