Ok, go ahead laugh, scorn me and ridicule me. I simply love this movie. I didn't watch it for several years because it looked...well, stupid. I watched it for the first time on HBO early this week. After a few minutes I was glued to the screen and I was totally immersed in this film.
I must also admit, one of the reasons I never watched it was because of Madonna. I swear I can't stand her. But my God she blew me away in this film. I honestly had no idea she could sing like that.
Now what really blew me away was Antonio Banderas. In my mind this is one of the best performances I have seen by an actor in years. He really sold me on this picture....it was one of those performances when I said...."I've just got to write something for him." He just might be the most talented man in the movie business. I mean, is there nothing this man can't do? Comedy, drama, singing dancing....he can do it all.
My wife still will not watch it. She says the same thing I said for years....it's stupid. Boy was I wrong....this is a great great movie. It reminded me of the old classics like Yankee Doodle Dandy (which is my all time favorite movie).
Ok, I'm ready, go ahead, I'm ready to be run off the internet and laughed at.
Sparks,
