Comments on: Avalon (1990) http://thisdistractedglobe.com/2008/01/13/avalon-1990/ Film reviews and commentary tonight, before I forget tomorrow Wed, 18 Nov 2009 17:21:30 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: DW http://thisdistractedglobe.com/2008/01/13/avalon-1990/comment-page-1/#comment-5400 DW Sat, 05 Jul 2008 02:49:01 +0000 http://thisdistractedglobe.com/2008/01/13/avalon-1990/#comment-5400 One of my favorites of all time. It's a masterpiece. What this film says about the effect TV has had on us all is heartbreaking - though so subtle many don't even make the connection. By the way, I was looking for the script when I found this. Every year around this time I drive my family crazy always saying "I came to this country in 1914". One of my favorites of all time.

By the way, I was looking for the script when I found this. Every year around this time I drive my family crazy always saying “I came to this country in 1914″.

I know that when I venture out of my comfort zone to watch a movie I've never seen before on someone else's recommendation, it's because I respect their taste. Two hours can be easily missed if you give it away too easily. I hope you get a chance to check out this film. Everyone I've talked to who's seen it is impacted by it in some positive way.
