I am anxious to hear your thoughts since I doubt I will have a chance to see it until it comes out on dvd. Favorite moments? Overall impressions?

Thanks!

Bart,

Last month, Charlie Rose did an interview with Valentino, Valentino's long time partner and business manager, Giancarlo Giammetti, and the director of the Last Emperor, Matt Tyrnauer. It was one of the most interesting Q&A's I've ever seen centering on the unusually complicated relationship between Valentino and Giancarlo, which form the impetus of the film. If you've not seen it, I would encourage you to do so.

AlwaysMe: I have not yet seen the picture, this quote comes from a trailer I watched online.
EA: Thanks, I watched your recommended clip and did enjoy it.
