[QUOTE="Chesterton, post: 77639037, member: 225709"] I'll tell you something weird. I watched a DVD of [I]The Godfather[/I] with director's commentary. The film came to a certain short scene near the end which I always thought was brilliant. It encapsulates, summarizes and explains what the whole story is about. It's when I realized how deeply profound the film is. And you know what the director Coppola said when it got to that scene? He said it was worthless and meaningless. He said he was going to cut it out of the film but an assistant talked him into leaving it in. My jaw dropped! o_O I can't imagine how he doesn't see what I see in it. I agree. I always liked the painting Christina's World, but didn't know what it was about. Then one day I looked it up and found out. I wished I hadn't. I still like it, but I enjoyed the painting more when it was kind of mysterious. [ATTACH type="full"]345870[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
