I just saw it tonight for the 5th time...? I'm not sure how many times. It played at the Walter Reade Theater. How lucky was I to see it on the big screen? It was glorious. No matter how many times I've seen it...*tears* I took a good friend with me and he totally dug it!
What a great city this is! I mean, who would think that this film would be playing here? The best part was that I wasn't the only one in the theater! There were actually more than 10 people! Ha! But, I should have known better. This is NY!
Tatyana Samojlova (Veronika) is Beautiful.
After the film, we got into a (sort-of) discussion with a Russian young lady and (after he came back from the bathroom) her Russian date/friend/boyfriend...
Now, I'm just waiting for, "Hiroshima Mon Amour," to play somewhere HERE, sometime SOON!!!
