Thanks for your detailed critical analysis - it&#39;s great that someone went to the trouble of explaining this one! I have to say - what a fantastic film - I had the pleasure of watching it over the Christmas holidays and it&#39;s one that really stays with you long after the film&#39;s over (hence me searching for and reading this wonderful review!). Excellent work! Well done. Many thanks!Mystnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250324745932561231.post-71011893224337554912011-04-02T06:29:20.492-05:002011-04-02T06:29:20.492-05:00wow, thank you for your analysis!

It all makes sense intellectually now that you've explained it to me, but I think I'd have to watch it again to be really satisfied. I might also get to enjoy that lovely cinematography a little bit more when my brain isn't collapsing in on itself trying to make sense of the plot.exactly whyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00176114762806470466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250324745932561231.post-74916930294616201912008-12-26T12:00:00.000-06:002008-12-26T12:00:00.000-06:00Sadly, the colors and contrast on my copy of Footprints are really off, so the screenshots don't really capture the full glory. The compositions are really good though. You might also notice the burned-in Danish subtitles, since this was apparently recorded off of scandanavian TV. It might be a loooong time before this gets a restored US release.Walrushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14822833888119348361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250324745932561231.post-83469061693238356782008-12-26T11:57:00.000-06:002008-12-26T11:57:00.000-06:00I actually think upon Dick Tracy fondly, but even acknowledging that its not a great movie, the cinematography is wonderful. Stararo and the art director managed to design the film so that it only uses the same seven colors of the original comic strip, giving it a strange saturated look with little gradation.Walrushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14822833888119348361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1250324745932561231.post-37085290293960834412008-12-25T14:14:00.000-06:002008-12-25T14:14:00.000-06:00Wow, that cinematography is pretty damn good. I found myself accidentally skipping past paragraphs just to look at more screenshots. But man... Dick Tracy? \:[Mad Doghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10716883645607032782noreply@blogger.com
