Best Peter Greenaway Film

[Medium Baby Jesus]

Poll question: Best Peter Greenaway Film

I love his films but understand why some people hate them. Anyone else here a fan?

I own them all and after I show one to a friend, they never come back to my house.

1. excellent! one of my fave directors

I love his stuff, though I can't pick just one.

Maybe "The Pillow Book." "Zed" was really sick & fascinating. They're all a wild ride, though I didn't really care for "The Draughstman's Contract."

A lot of people can't stand him. I like twisted ficks.

4. The Draughstman's Contract requires

pretty intense concentration to follow. I think Zed or Drowning is my favorite. 8 ½ Women is the only one I really didn't care for. The father son incest was a bit much. His soundtracks are generally outstanding. Love Michael Nyman.

6. I actually liked "The Draughtsman's Contract"

Although I got a headache from trying to follow it. It took a couple of days before I realized what I had seen.

7. my head got sleepy when I watched it

maybe not enough full frontals to keep me entertained :7

2. Ah, dearest Peter

So strange and so *very* British. And I'm from there so I should know.

IME most people who like Peter Greenaway like the first one they see of his best...

Perhaps one day I shall write and put up my Peter Greenaway parody script.

3. I was about to vote for "The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, & Her Lover"

...but then I saw that you had a "pretentious British crap" option.

I couldn't resist.

5. I put that there for you.

8. "Try the cock, Albert. It's a delicacy."

Guess which film I voted for? ;)
