Review of The Old Man Who Read Love Stories (2001) by Matthew H — 18 Dec 2007
This is a great film by Adelaide's own Rolf De Heer. Of all his films, this is my personal favourite. If you want break free from bombastic, shallow films, check out this wonderful, contemplative film with great acting, stunning cinematography and memorable characters.
This is one of the most underrated films made by an Aussie. It starts slowly, but stick with it and you will be rewarded. Why great films go under the radar is always a surprise... am I the only person sick of Hollywood's modern offerings????? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills sometimes.
