Review of The Conformist (1970) by Gabora. — 03 Jan 2007
A visual masterpiece, but also completely unabsorbing. The scenery and characters are a joy to look at, but its impossible to get into their heads because nothing they do makes sense in the least bit. This seems to be true about most Bertolucci films.
Luckily Coppola snatched Vittorio Storaro away from him for a few years and gave us a true masterpiece both visually and in terms of storytelling called Apocalypse Now.
