It was extremely difficult and took me some time to do.

As for the Monty Python films, I find 'Holy Grail' to be more consistent and a better piece of filmmaking than 'Life of Brian', but they are both superb.

There are just two of the films i haven't seen - If and The Red Shoes.

Repulsion would never have entered my mind as i never think of it as British.

Brazil was a film i did not get on with at all. I don't rate many early Gilliam films though, i much prefer his later work.

Am I the only person who thinks Don't Look Now is extremely overrated and boring, apart from the final scene?

I've tried to like it many times, but it just does nothing for me. I seem to remember having this discussion a couple of years back on here and giving it another shot, with my feelings not changing

Hell, even the final scene didn't do much for me, found it hilarious more than anything.

Didn't that scene make you realise the utter tragedy of everything, with John ignoring or misinterpreting all the warnings which had been available?
