The film itself is just second rate Altman, granted I wasn't as impressed with Gosford Park as everyone else, but this is still a step down. Wow, every so often it's interesting to spam a seemingly dead thread."

tab uno: The danger in "if I remember correctly," while helpful in a general way, doesn't contribute much in the way of meaningful discussion that this website is known for. I still think that it's possible after a long period of time to at least attempt to comment on the notion of background/foreground in movies or the connection or lack there of between The Company and Lost in Translation. I was hoping for comments about a movie that wouldn't dismiss a movie like some subjective food preference (I don't like hotdogs or some such thing, I least I might have commented that as I child I had food poisoning and therefore I developed a dislike for hotdogs).
