I just watched this 1966 Anotnioni movie "Blow-up" and i have to say i thought it was pretty good. A little strange at parts but just seeing Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page both playing in the yardbirds is reason enough for anyone to check it out. I'm assuming coppola had to be influenced by this movie as far as directing technique goes when he made The Conversation.
Anyone else seen it? Thoughts?
