Thank you. I loved Bitter Moon when I watched it again a few days ago. Terrific film.

Get well soon, Luke. Your film writings are part of my weekend ritual. We must be of a similar age - the very same films seen first as either "meh" ( Barry Lyndon) or "WTF" ( Bitter Moon) become, over time, reflections of our own passage of time and - hopfully- a growing in wisdom.

Of course, some feel like masterpieces of their genre from the get go - "Rosemary's Baby" for example

Anyway - Hope to read you back on form in the very best future.

Thank you. Appreciate that. I'm afraid I am going to have to miss tomorrow's post. But hopefully, should be back in action for next Friday.

I haven't seen this film as I recall Luke but oh my goodness, as a mystery writer I love that tagline!

It's a must for you! On DVD and paid for YouTube movie download. Fast becoming a cult film. When I first saw it I thought it was a little bit pretentious. Now I completely get it. Interested to know what you think of it?
