William Klein(1928- )1. Who Are You, Polly Maggoo? 8.5/10Missed some of the dialogue, but solid.

Funny timing, there's a Klein retro in town starting next weekend....might have to check some out now, especially the one you've rated quite highly.

I think it may be even better than I've rated, it's dense so I'm still pushing it around a little bit and like I said missed some dialogue, cause the subtitles were flashing for like split seconds on the screen every now and then.
I feel as though I'd need to see more of his work to come up with more accurate ratings, but it will be interesting to see how you rate any of his flms as a point of comparison.
Most seem to claim he's just a wannabe Godard. I would definitely check them out though.

Yeah i'm interested...and obviously i'll let you know what i make of his stuff. Which other ones do you think i should see? I'm undecided, i think they're playing them all.

I'm not sure, there's not much info about him, I watched PM because one of my friends with decent taste rated it, and I'm all about discovering overlooked American filmmakers.
The plot synopsis all sound horrible. You'll be the official Klein experet here in a bit.
