I think I've seen about all I'm going to see at this point. Discovered a few things, saw some bleh things. I regret nothing!

Charlotte Rampling in The Night Porter is worthy enough to win the Best Actress category.

If you have Netflix Instant, the documentary Charlotte Rampling: The Look is streaming.  Maybe the The Night Porter segments will encourage some of you to watch the film?

In case you haven't gotten around to reading them or missed them, reviews by Bondo and verbALs:

I just watched The Night Porter and I liked the film a lot. It is currently my #6 of 1974 and I have given it nominations for Director, Actor in a Leading Role, Actress in a Leading Role, Original Screenplay, Art Direction, Film Editing, and Score.

I'd still like to see:

Celine and Julie Go Boating
The Enigma of Kasper Hauser
The Great Ecstasy of Woodcarver Steiner

If anyone can provide some helpful hints on how to do so, I'd be much obliged.
