Day # 8 of the 30 Day Film Challenge.

A Film that you liked the soundtrack more.

Well, that can probably fit about 98% of the movies released in the late 1980s and early 90s? Great soundtrack, bad movie. In fact many of them felt like well-orchestrated music videos.

Decisions, decisions.

I love the soundtrack of this movie - but I don't really like the movie. And have not been able to re-watch it at all. But I own the soundtrack and have listened to it endlessly over the years. The movie...hmmm...has issues.

It depends on how you view it - I guess. If you are into cinematography, camera angles, and specific shots - it's rather good. They do some cool stuff with shadows. Also the music is good.

But memorable? No. Like I said I can't remember it enough - to tell you if I liked it or not. And I saw it twice.

No, I don't have any problem with people liking the movie. It does have its good points. But it was voted best British movie of the 20th century, by 1000 people in the British film industry. I think anyone who voted for it as best British movie of the century over all others including Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, Brazil and Olivier's Hamlet has more explaining to do than I do. ;o)
