i be stun by this film . i have be rent antonioni film or rediscover them and and this film show me the climax and fruit of his 50 year of direct . what an eye for set and color and and detail . i have never see such visual beauty and poetry film before . i have to stop after the first story and hold back the tear . yes and beauty move me and like it move keats to write ode on a grecian urn . this movie be make for the mature and emotionally and intellectually and audience . those hop to see physical action and soap opera will be disappoint . i will have to see this film several time before i can truly appreciate it and judge it . this film should be require view for all cinematographer and director . possibly a truly great film and on the order of kurosawa dream .
