One star for effort to mislead me. So, supposedly events taking place in Berlin? And divided Berlin never existed? I guess its easy to ignore anything as long as you can get away with it. So, supposedly this flick is about sex and love but they lost along the lines as movie don't have coherent plot or music or real life.
The producer couldn't comprehend the idea a movie is illusion and added second illusion for another hour. Whatever, I'm in no mood to start discussion.
To write about movies you have to have benchmark or basic point which is always one--movies are illusion. If they reflect on reality it cannot be proved as everybody has different opinion about past and present. With this in mind this flick is excellent and I don't care about plot which is reasonable in this case, female characters which are all hot in their designer's underwear, fair amount of sexual activities etc. Illusion?--yes. Do I care?--no. Why?--D'Amato fits my definition of excellent. Maybe I am wrong?--maybe. But I pay attention to which movies I remember and which dissipate without trace. And I remember how piece of propaganda called Battleship Potemkin was considered one of 10 best movies of all time and as I knew all this propaganda first hand I said--whatever but D'Amato is on my list.
Yes, I own two different copies of this flick with two different ending in two different languages. Yes, this movie is about private life and it mixes up reality and imagination and in my book its excellent mixture. After all our actions are based on our brain work and the results are mostly don't rolling out as expected. Most of the movie we can only guess why everything happens the way it does and this is how it normally happen in real life. If you happen to have different opinion about this you are entitled exactly like me. As usual D'Amato not capable go far enough in sex department but considering 50 years later nobody does I figured all movies making will be stuck in eleven's century mentality for some time and I not hoping to find something better.
