Goya -- Oh Boya!

I just got back from what is, as far as I know, the first public screening of an unfinished print of Milos Forman's new film, "Goya's Ghosts," starring Javier Bardem, Natalie Portman, Michael Lonsdale and Stellan Skarsgard as the painter Francisco Goya.

Since the film was made by a director whose work I respect, and since the film was quite obviously not in its finished state, I will refrain from commenting on it for the time being. But I will be quite interested in what the public and the critics have to say about it when it's released in November (according to the producer, Saul Zaentz, who was in attendance).

And I will discuss it at length when it's released.
