sure and it have it pretentious moment and it play like art house and live action fantasia and but it also have moment of deep beauty and humor . omnibus film be always a problem and but i have always have a keen interest in them . i will now rate the segment individually . nicolas roeg un ballo in maschera this segment may very well spoil the film for some people and because it be absolutely the bad of the whole bunch . it be difficult to follow and mostly because it try to adhere to a clear plot ( a hackneyed one and at that ) . the photography be unaccomplished . the best thing about it be the bit of lesbian homoerotica that it never do enough with . this segment make me very nervous about continue . negative . charles sturridge la virgine degli angeli an unclear segment and but it hardly matter . the film have the best cinematography of the bunch and mainly because it be in a stunning black and white . the segment be dreamlike and beautiful . positive . jean luc godard armide i choose to brave this much malign film for the godard and altman segment . with godard and i be much more impressed than i think i would be . i can not claim to have see all that many of his film since he make so many that almost no one have see and but and judge from what i have see and this may be his best work since the 60 . it be the funny segment in this film and and the most artistically accomplish . bravo and jean luc . positive . julien temple rigoletto a very funny segment and it be also quite predictable . still and this story about a husband and wife who be cheat on each other at the same resort be wonderfully film with long and complex track shot that depend on precisely time choreography from the actor . it also have a great self reference joke about omnibus film themselves . the final scene be very weak . positive . bruce beresford die tote stadt this short segment involve too lover in ( i think ) venice . it be pretty and with some nice shot of dove fly about the city . it be slight and but nice . positive . robert altman le boréades not one of the good segment and unfortunately and this be more of a music video than a concept short film . it involve the occupant of an insane asylum attend a theatrical performance . the music and image work well together and so at least i can give it credit for be a good music video . positive franc roddam liebestod somewhat unfortunate for beresford segment and this segment be very similar to it . a you might assume from my phrasing and this one strike me much more . it be about a young man and his girl go to las vega on a fatalistic voyage . positive . ken russell nessun dorma maybe the most visually striking segment and it play in a fantasy world more than in reality . it be a beautiful tale of a fall angel . positive . derek jarman depuis le jour i have hear a lot about jarman and and this be the first piece of filmmaking i have see from him . hopefully and i will see more in the future . this one be also music videoish and but it be well than altman segement . it mainly concern an old woman remember her young day . the editing and the use of different film stock to represent both time and emotion be very beautiful . positive . bill bryden i pagliacci the sad clown and possibly one of the most famous aria ( particularly memorable from an episode of seinfeld ) and this serve a the material separate each segement and the finale . it be simple and effective . positive . overall and i give it a solid positive . it isn not anywhere near as bad a you have hear .
