The City of Lost Children 1995
OH BOY!! If any of you have seen the film Delicatessan this is the follow-up picture. I think I read that this film has the most (computer) special effects of any European/Film. Its a sci-fi menangerie. It throws in the romantic, storybook feel of the circus sideshow with the haunting, shadowy world of film noir. A definite vacation from the Hollywood cinema. I recommended this film more times then any other film.
Four Rooms 1995
Okay, a lot of hype, not much in return. I lik Tim Roth (especially in Little Odessa) and I really liked his chance at getting away from the ganster roles. As for the four "scenes" I only liked the third one, with Banderas and the devilish little kids. Maybe rent this on video tape, or if you are a HUGE fan, but otherwise...pass.
