Another masterpiece from the creator of Cinema Paradiso, one of the greatest films ever made. The Star Maker isn't really any less fabulous either, but with just a different angle to the old cinema based on a deep love for classic film making. A fantastic person gallery and a catching of scenery that some Italian film makers seem to be true masters of, and Giuseppe Tornatore is one of the very best. Story telling and creation of characters is simply brilliant. Speaking of casting - Marco Guidone has done a fantastic job both with actors and extras. With Tornatore's amazing direction one forgets that they're all actors, but just normal and extra ordinary personalities. And again, Ennio Morricone's music binds it all together to perfection. I'm deeply humble. This is great art.
