Fando and Lis are a young couple who embark on a journey to the city of Tar. Lis is handicapped and is aided by Fando who pulls her along in a wagon or carries her in his arms as they encounter a series of offbeat characters and situations: a man plays a burning piano in a dump surrounded by dancers. A girl eats a rose, and three men and a child huddle under an umbrella as someone cracks eggs over their heads. The couple frequently quarrels as they struggle to complete their symbolic journey. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

"Here’s the dilemma. I have a list of well over three thousand movies I want to see saved on IMDB. I have a subscription to Netflix and recently every time I return a DVD it has been an extremely arduous task to make the decision as to which movie I should see next. In an effort to narrow down my choices and make the process of choosing slightly less overwhelming I have devised a system, almost a bit of a game for me. Here’s how it goes.For my first film selec " [More]

To read more about that check out my first Spout filmblog entry.Fando y Lis (Fando and Lis)So this is the movie that caused a riot, caused death threats against the director Jodorowsky, and nearly got him deported.Based on Jodorowsky's memory of a surrealistic play he acted in. If you want to see some odd, often uncomfortable imagery, you got it here. Apparently everything is symbolic, from what I get from J " [More]

"I have seen Fando Y Lis which I would say comes across as a quite charming hippy flick. It was like a myth told over with psychedelics. A lot better in my opinion than flicks like Zabriskie Point which ends up coming off so frayed in its sensibilities. There was a period there where alot of directors were showing their allegiance to "The Youth" by making films that ended up coming off as decadent and self-indulgent. Fando Y Lis feels innocent and lovely. I'd love to see more from this director " [More]

"[quote user="TheWorkingDead"] [quote user="Risselada"] I'm just realy surprised that nothing by Alejandro Jodorowsky has been mentioned. Surely he must trump even Lynch, and certainly some of the kind of midly weird not not THAT weird folks like Gilliam or Junet. [/quote] Well, c'mon then, you can't just dismiss our choices as 'not weird enough' and not put up any of your own choices. Educate us. [/quote] Well, the only one of his movies I've seen is Fando and Lis. I've seen c " [More]
