But it...Casino Royale should be added to this list. But it has wit by the bucketful, unlike many of the pretentioys arty ones, man. Beware of 'art' anything. Something should be well-crafted, whether it's painting or film or music or literature, through hard work and skill. 'Art' per se is often, as you imply, a shortcut to greatness without the hard work or skill. It fools some of us but not all. If the point is not clear, that isn't be the audience's fault. Some say they shouldn't be a point, but that's the slippery slope towards meaninglessness and pretentiousness. At the end of the day, the point is not to make a point, but to entertain. That's how all things should be judged.Antonionionihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13589032635642130655noreply@blogger.com
