For a non-horror film, It was very good and thought provoking.
2020-11-16 07:03:33 +0000 UTCOther Italian films to say away from would be "Cannibal Holocaust" and "Cannibal Ferox". I have never seen all of "Cannibal Holocaust", but there are scenes of animal brutality. I did try to watch "Cannibal Ferox", and I got to a scene with this cute animal (I think it was a wallaby) gets killed by a huge snake and the poor animal is screaming until it is eaten by the snake. I couldn't take anymore and stopped watching the film.
2020-11-16 06:50:36 +0000 UTCAnother Italian film that seems to rear its ugly head is Peir Paolo Pasolini's "Salo or 120 Days of Sodom". I don't know if I would recommend it. It's probably the most perverse film I've ever seen. The director was murdered just a few weeks after it's release.

2020-11-16 01:18:41 +0000 UTC"You told me this was a feel good film." ๐๐๐ Thoroughly enjoyed this reaction and your insightful review at the end. Definitely check out more Italian Neorealism films in the future. Also check out Spirited Away (2001) if you want a feel good foreign film (it's feel good to me at least).

2020-11-15 22:01:15 +0000 UTCIf youโre going old movies, ARSENIC AND OLD LACE starring Carey Grant. Itโs both a little creepy and funny.

2020-11-15 21:34:32 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed your reactions, very thoughtful and intelligent. It's nice to switch it up a bit from the horror. I also enjoyed seeing you two in black-and-white (like the world used to be in the '40s). Shaun's "pasta on pizza" made me laugh out loud, as did Tom's incredulous reaction. A suggestion for a future foreign film reaction: Ingmar Bergman's "Fanny and Alexander" from 1982, though it is long at just over 3 hours (and that's the edited version, cut down from over 5 hours). A beautiful and occasionally surreal experience.
