I've been meaning to see Tetro, Exy, so thanks for the reminder! Just put it on hold at my library. But I wanted to say I LOVED Youth Without Youth...I'm a sucker for a metaphysical story line, and have long been an admirer of Mircea Eliade.

I loved the first reel of "Youth Without Youth" but as it progressed I lost interest and was let down by the slow inevitable ending. "Tetro" is the exact opposite, it takes a moment to acclimatise to the Buenos Aires locale but very quickly gets into it's stride, grips you and never let's go. I look forward to hearing your reaction to it.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, Exy. I had just seen The Red Shoes about a month ago, so was primed to see the homages Coppola pays to that film in Tetro. I love how the dances appear in the movie, the sumptuous color in the middle of the black & white, how the ballets act as metaphors for Tetro's/Bennie's play. Just gorgeous--especially the ballet of the car accident. Great performances all around. Thanks for the suggestion!
