Eureka

[MileFilms at aol.com]

Dear friends,

I'm sorry I haven't been able to participate lately and I'm quite behind on 
the times these days. Way, way to many restorations happening here this year.

Anyway, I was very disturbed by the New York Times trashing this week of 
Eureka. I thought it a fine film despite (or maybe because) being reminiscent 
of Maborosi. I was also told that a major problem in distributing the film 
(okay, besides being almost four hours long, sepia-toned, and with five 
hundred lines of dialogue all together) would be the director's poor critical 
reputation in Japan. Another concern is Wild Bunch's initial asking price, 
but that would be our lookout...

Mark, Aaron and others, could you share with me your reviews and thoughts on 
"Eureka"?
