Wow!

As I watched I thought of Fellini. I thought of Brecht. I thought of Faulkner. I was dismayed, and riveted. I did not find the film enjoyable in the sense that one has a good time in watching a movie. Forget about that. It was a memorable, fascinating trip I could not turn away from.

And yes, it is about history, but about all history. About war, and all war. About folly and and self-delusion. It is also an ode to the idea of Yugoslavia.

Boy, you can see I was impressed. Thanks. How did I miss this movie all these years??
