Well, I guess I'm making my way through Mr. Altman's movies, as this is my 4
th one viewed this year. After reeling from my disdain for
Shortcuts and scratching my head in response to
3 Women, I was pretty surprised that I enjoyed one of Altman's longest movies. Actually, I was pretty fond of
Nashville. The sweet sounds of country western tunes + Lily Tomlin + Jeff
Goldblum on a tricycle + Elliott Gould playing himself + profound sadness? These are some pretty excellent ingredients for a great movie.
Okay, okay, I know
Nashville's close to three hours long and I usually squirm after 90 minutes. Maybe bifurcating the movie to watch
The Descent influenced my level of enjoyment a bit.
