an excellent movie

i must admit that i am not in the movie business. nevertheless i had the chance of seeing this movie in the directors cut version. even though i probably understood 60% of the plot (if there was something as a "real plot"), i enjoyed it even more. it is by far one of the best movies i have seen in the last years. it captured me from the first scene and kept me hooked until the end. the pictures, the sound, the idea itself, the actors (except of this Allen guy, he really got on my nerves), the colors and the way Larry portrays los Angeles fascinated me. as a European, no other "American" movie has made such an impression on me since at least 5 years. i hope to see in future time many more American movies taking risks such as this one.
