About
1900
1900 is a great film but I'd recommend doing a little reading on the period before you watch it. There's a lot that goes unsaid and much of it has to do with the socio-political atmosphere of the times. Plus, how many other movies have De Niro and Depardieu together with Burt Lancaster. I first saw this film in German with Dutch sub-titles. I couldn't understand a thing but I was still enthralled. Of course, as with any Bertolucci film it's gorgeously filmed.
