Twilight Time Discussion Thread

[easydreamer]

I watched Appassionata the other day, and liked it a lot. Nothing can go wrong with young Ornella Muti & Eleonora Giorgi in the erotic drama, right?

Anyway, I found something strange with the subtitles. Some of the lines in the subtitles are shown as "???", as if the translator couldn't make out what the character was saying. It occurred more than a few times throughout the film.

Is it only me that experienced this issue? Maybe the wrong subtitles, the draft version or something, were accidentally used & QC couldn't find the faults.

Even with this, I liked the film a lot & is definitely a keeper. Hope TT would continue releasing more Italian films!

I watched my copy with English track. I'll try the subs once I'm home.

Thanks

I watched the earlier part of the film again, and found the issue at the 0:17:30 & 0:35:08 marks. I believe there were more later on, but didn't have the time to see the whole thing last night.

Yep. Does the same on mine. It reminded me of the old SNL skit with Eddie Murphy as Buckwheat. "Buckwheat sings".

You can still get 10% off your order, if you'll agree to a Facebook post.
I ordered last night, and received the discount for the second time.
Nice that they reward us for helping them advertise.

I might have considered it if I knew more about what information Coopt was collecting and what/who is handling that data. Not saying there is anything specifically wrong but the site is roughly a year old and the address Coopt lists on their privacy page appears to be a private/family residence.

I don't take part in anything that records my e-mail address. I haven't had a single piece of junk mail in the 3 years I've had my account, and I attribute that to being cautious.

I've yet to see one negative occurrence since the last time I used this. It's simply a post for TT, on my wall.
That's it.

Glad to know I'm not the only one seeing this.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next Italian title, La moglie più bella, directed by Damiano Damiani & again with Ornella Muti. It also features the score by Marstro Ennio Morricone, which I believe will be featured on the disc as the Isolated Score track.

Close call. I nearly paid $50.00 for a copy !

[MikeZ.]

So glad I did a search...so glad that eBay seller declined both my offers for $40.00, then $45.00. So glad the member here didn't check his messages.

Every so often, I get on a John Frankenheimer kick, then I buy whatever's missing in my collection.

This time it was 52 Pick Up, Birdman Of Alcatraz, and The Train.

I even rewatched I Walk The Line on DVD last night.

I paid $14.46 for Arrow's version.

Don't forget The Manchurian Candidate in your list. It's one of Frankenheimer's best!
