		I was disappointed when it did not win the Academy Adward for best foreign film - and that Bruno Ganz wasn’t nominated but I guess it is still many places a sore spot...
		I have so much respect for the director and the cast (especially Bruno Ganz) for making this film!
		bruno ganz brilliantly portrays a pathetic man with worries, feelings (even if it is only for his dog) and emotions.

		Italian Bruno Bozzetto adapted the premise of Disney’s Fantasia to his own ends, with animations to illustrate classical music.
		The famous sequence of the dinosaurs’ apocalyptic evolutionary march conveys Bozzetto’s darker world view and is a worthy counterpart to Fantasia’s Night On Bald Mountain.
		Is this, like, a 1970s trip, man? Bozzetto attempts a more psychedelic vision than Disney, with sumptuous colour effects and evocative, surreal sequences.

	Fine Line Features Carried Away Synopsis
		Novelist Jim Harrison was thrilled when he learned that Bruno Barreto wanted to make the film of one of his most cherished works.
		Barreto instinctively knew that he wanted the look of a Terence Malick film, namely Badlands, which was achieved by the acclaimed cinematographer Declan Quinn ( Leaving Las Vegas).
		Barreto and his wife, Amy Irving, optioned the book, began the script development process, and eventually cast Dennis Hopper in the leading role of Joseph.

		Bruno Barreto concludes: "I wanted to make a film that would make its viewers' souls lighter, and put as smile to their faces as they leave the movie theater."
		(DIRECTOR) After living nine years in the U.S., where he has directed four feature films, Bruno Barreto went back to his home country of Brazil, in 1996, to direct Four Days in September (O Que é Isso, Companheiro?), nominated for a Best Foreign Film Academy Award®.
		The experience of shooting in the city in which he was born and raised was so pleasurable that he decided to repeat it.

	Guardian Unlimited Film Reviews Downfall
		Perhaps the most uncomfortable taboo that Downfall breaks is having Hitler played with gusto by a German-speaking actor (although Bruno Ganz is actually Swiss.) In the Anglophone world there seems to be a convention, perhaps born of fastidiousness and a victor's gallantry, that Hitler is best played by a classically trained Brit.
		Insofar as there is a moral centre to the film, it resides in the person of Hitler's young personal secretary, Traudl Junge, on whose memoir, Until the Final Hour, it is partly based, and who was recently the subject of a riveting documentary, Blind Spot.
		Juliane Kühler as Eva Braun and Bruno Ganz as Hitler await the end in Downfall, which will open in Israeli on May 19

	DVD Times - The Quiet Earth
		Routledge and Smith give entirely able performances, but the film belongs to Bruno Lawrence, who is also credited as one of the screenwriters.
		Among the three bit parts credited is Anzac Wallace, who played the title character in Geoff Murphy’s earlier film Utu, in which Lawrence co-starred.
		Murphy (credited here as Geoffrey rather than the usual Geoff) made some good films at home, but failed to flourish overseas.

	12/20/2003: "Bruno Bozzetto's new feature: Mammuk"
		Bruno Bozzetto (Milan, 1938) made his first animation short Tapum la Storia delle Armi (Tapum, the History of Weapons) at age 20, and immediately drew the audience's and the critics' attention.
		Bozzetto first achieved worldwide recognition with his character Mr Rossi: a middle-aged average man that was the star of many animation shorts and 3 feature films.
		But Bozzetto's main passion is still producing his own shorts: he won many awards in his career, most notably the Golden Bear at the 1990 Berlin Film Festival in the "best short" category for Mister Tao, and the 1991 Oscar Nomination for Grasshoppers.

	VH1.com : Movies : Movie : Smash Palace : Plot
		Co-written by star Bruno Lawrence, Smash Palace was garlanded with praise from some of the world's most influential film critics.
		A key entry in the "renaissance" of the New Zealand film industry, Smash Palace stars Bruno Lawrence as an ex-racing champ.
		Lawrence might have been able to weather his wife's leaving him, but it is too much to bear when she takes their daughter with her.

	The Quiet Earth (1985)
		The scenes of Bruno Lawrence’s cracking up are well conveyed in striking, often playful, collages of images - him wandering in a ladies slip, taking whatever material possessions he wants, driving full-size trains as though it were a toy train set, and one beautiful image of him wandering in the rain playing the sax.
		Far less effective is when the film abandons the lyrical, visual poetry of isolation and introduces two other characters in the second half.
		If possible see the film in a theatre with a stereo system - the sudden ringing of a telephone or the rolling of an unseen can from one side of the speakers to the other makes the desolation seem even more absolute by its interruption.

		Bruno Lawrence plays a uniquely Kiwi character in this film.

	The Quiet Earth Film Review - Time Out Film
		If you were registered for Time Out Film you would automatically see the cinemas near you showing this film.
		But what promises initially to become an SF spoof of genuine oddity, soon degenerates into a merely conventional thriller with the arrival of two fellow survivors.
		Still, compensation is provided by desolate Auckland locations, some fine sight gags, and the ebullient Lawrence as Zac.

	SPLICEDwire "Downfall" movie review (2005) "Downfall" review, Oliver Hirschbiegel, Bruno Ganz, Alexandra Maria Lara
		The fantastic Bruno Ganz (best known in the US for "Wings of Desire") plays Hitler with a broken kind of humanity that makes his evil subtler than expected, but by extension all the more chilling.
		The film is based in part on Junge's accounts of events, and actress Alexandra Maria Lara rises to the occasion, but the woman's continued willful naiveté, and her loyalty and affection for her Fuehrer, makes Traudl far less sympathetic than was clearly intended.
		His senior staff is accounted for nearly every moment of the detailed film, but none of them stands out except Ulrich Matthes as psychotically loyal propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, and Corinna Harfouch as his wife.
