satyricon--no continuity? you should see it again. i had a parallel experience the first time i watched it--but the second time, it was like seeing a different film. i blame the monkey chant.
greenaway's films at least tkae chances--with the result that when the tank, they REALLY tank--but the cook the thief his wife and her lover is lovely, i think. so is the draightman's contract. the tempest was ok--but i really really did not like pillow book.
