Widescreen?.......2006-09-30

I loved this movie. I've always been a huge Judy Davis fan since I discovered her in David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch. The characters are almost as whimsical as the architecture. The cinematography is one of the outstanding features on this film. My question is whether this film is available in a widescreen format? Having seen the film in it's original aspect ratio I was disappointed by this full frame release. We miss so much of the movie that, even with the interesting plot and characters, it is ultimately frustrating and disappointing.

This has a plot like early Almodovar, sans the frantic...........2004-06-04

...stilleto heeled Frankie puts out a butt thrown out of the apartment window of Cassandra, ex-Kalamazoo-an, translator cum novelist living in the pre modern splendor which we currently know as Barcelona. Frankie's from the States, she does not speak the language, but she's gotta find her man, Ben, right away. Would Cassandra agree to asking around in the local language and sniff out Ben's location? There's a grand in it off the top, two grand if the party is located...plus expenses. At first Cassandra balks, but one evening while trying to focus, the prattle of family and kids has her fed up and she voices her complaint to the landlady who, by the way, reminds her she's two months due on the rent--who, by the way, is also mother of the offending children. The land lady cuts Cassandra's light out, so she's forced to find the stillettoed one's number to take up on the job. Cassandra does a couple of days worth of snooping, take a few pictures and Viola! She's found the dude. It was the SF jacket that gives it away! And this is the beginning of her entire headache with the couple. Gaudi Afternoon is a very funny movie with several unexpected twists and turns. Marcia must've gotten tired of the jokes about her name, so...you get the Frankie construct. Lili reconstructs her Solanus, but softens the touch. We get to see how beautiful Barcleona is and finally the film veiwer begins to realise that this is a strange, but sweetly touching film. If you haven't seen this, see it. The ideas in this film may come very close to offending you, but watch it, anyway. It works out nicely in the end and you will enjoy it.

Though Barbara Wilson's novel by the same name casts the characters a bit differently than the film does, this cinematic exploration of gender and sexuality is really entertainting. When I try to explain it to my hip and theory-wise friends they roll their eyes at all of the plot twists, but they don't seem so hokey as you watch. And the opening credit sequence of this film is stunning--absolutely stunning. There are all of these gorgeous stained-glass-like images which fold and melt into one another; almost the way the identity of some of the characters evolves and shifts during the course of the film. We have the usual independent film suspects in the cast--notably Marcia Gay Harden and Lili Taylor--but oddly it doesn't just feel like yet another little indie film that could. The actors do a wonderful job of seducing us as much as each other, and Judy Davis' performance is much more nuanced than perhaps the film even asks for--which makes it especially delicious. And the landscape of Barcelona is truly fabulous. From the first frame to the last frame, you'll be entranced and engaged and surprised.

Marcia Gay Harden is dazzling!.......2004-02-03

Gaudi Afternoon is a gem, most notable for its beautiful cinematography. A truly colorful film, not to mention a very colorful script...and, of course, a colorful cast.

Judy Davis is wonderful, Marcia Gay Harden is dazzling, Lili Taylor is superb, and Juliette Lewis is irresistibly sweet!

Gaudi Afternoon's originality shines; a rare find that deserved a LOT more credit than it received. I'm definitely buying this one on DVD!!
