Taste of Cherry and The Leopard Mini Reviews

The Leopard(dir. Luchino Visconti)(US version)
The whole film was pretty good. Nothing really amazing about it. It kind of got boring during the last 45 minutes or so. I need to watch the original version of it.
*** out of ****

Taste of Cherry(dir. Abbas Kiarostami)
I'm borderline whether this film is actually good or bad. It was interesting and different. It was not as good as The Wind Will Carry Us which had conversations that felt natural and pointless yet meaningful. The whole film really doesn't engage the viewer but there is something bold about it that I have to respect.
