I enjoyed this as much as I'd expected to - as usual, Krzysztof Kieslowski is flawless.
The DVD extras are SUPERB. The interviews with Kieslowski's collaborators are such a reminder of what regurgitated tosh today's movie people (really, it's almost impossible to call them 'filmmakers') spit out.
Also on the extras is Kieslowski's doc short 'Talking Heads', which at just 14 minutes, is one of the most inspiring things I have ever watched. 50 or so late 1970s Poles asked who they are and want they want from life: fame, fortune, success? No. Humanity, decency and a bright outlook on life.
What more do we really need? I wish I could give Kieslowski and every one of those people a big, fat hug. 12 years 6 months ago -
