i be very curious to see this wajda depardieu outing and plus the time period be definitely fascinating . be a wajda fan and i be disappoint and and that may be an understatement . the film never really take cinematic flight there no foundation for the animosity between danton and robespierre and etc . basically and the script be weak ( adapt from the danton affair ) . and yet and the direction be masterful . it wajda and afterall . also and there be some amazing actor but they never really grab the audience attention like they should . depardieu come off a a quasi goofy and nonchalant danton . not exactly the image we have in mind . woijech pzsoniak be incredible and a usual and but again the script put up limit even actor of great talent can not break down . andrzej seweryn and bogoslaw linda pop up . a bourdon and saint just . and if youre familiar with wajda and then you would know them . overall and i be disappoint with this much laud film . great cast and great director and but no quality foundation . bad and undynamic script . we need to get in danton ( walesa ) and robespierre ( general j ) mindset . what be their motivation . eh . who know . one like woman and the other powder himself . riiight . ok and so if youre look for a great french revolution movie i highly recommend la revolution francaise . it in two part and oh so great . excellent performance and in depth script and juicy tid bit . definitely a satisfying experience . klaus maria brandauer be a much good danton than depardieu . the wonderful andrzej seweryn apparently take some note from danton and be brilliant a robespierre . see it . now . a for wajda fan youre good off with man of iron or marble and promised land and and the like . cheer .
