The Legend of 1900
(1998)
Written and directed
by Giuseppe Tornatore this film stars Tim Roth, Pruitt Taylor Vince
and Melanie Thierry. An orphan with an unusual musical talent grows
up on a passenger liner that travels between Europe and the United
States.
On a thematic level
this film works really well, exploring the idea of immigrant dreams
and fears of reality. At times some of the dialogue is a little over
the top for my taste but generally the story works well. Some of the
CGI is a little dated but otherwise this is a well made film with a
nice score from Ennio Morricone.
4/5
