Who has seen the movie 'The Saddest Music In The World' ?
What do you think? Are you as entranced as I am by this film? The effects are really great and, as I understand, cheaply made! And it's in black and white! Well most of the time, but I admire the effects! This is such an artsy film, when I first saw it, I thought I would hate it, but now I feel I must have it in my film collection! Has anybody else who've seen this film have some thoughts on it?

2. I really liked it
One of the wierder movies I've ever seen. But many scenes are totally unforgetable. The dumping of the winners into the vat of beer. The sawing off of her leg. The glass leg filled with champers. The leg exploding.

4. I really like the musical scene of "I Hear Music".
I thought this was really well done. The audio and visual has been a brain worm for about a week now, second only to Mozart's Magic Flute! Amazing!

6. Yeah, something like that. I saw some of his short films.
The man reminds me of Derick Jarmin and Kenneth Anger combined. I'm really impressed.... and that's hard to do these days!

9. Did you like "Sissy Boy Slap Party"?
That's a stone classic, if you ask me. And what did you think of the 'making of' movies on that DVD, if you watched them?

Too wild! Very much like Kenneth Anger.
