1001 movies to see before you die. I started this one with a family member and we were both interested despite skepticism regarding the quality of the filming; it felt like a tv show. It had an interesting plot that bordered on fantasy. However this all changed a little later as other characters were introduced and our interest waned. It became tedious and harder to follow / care. Regardless, I give it credit for what it tried to do, but I don't plan to see it again. It was on youtube.

Another great director I missed at the time

Another great director I missed at the time. Chilean expat Raul Ruiz' take on multiple personality disorder - incredibly playful, often surreal - as if Luis Bunuel and Chris Marker had decided to do a remake of The Three Faces of Eve. Who needs Hollywood?

A series of interconnected, fantastical parables based on

A series of interconnected, fantastical parables based on folklore, Three Lives and Only One Death is so convoluted and branching in its overarching narrative and particularly fast-paced in its tempo that you can't help but enjoy it based on the virtue of variety alone. Oftentimes, the film requires your full attention in order to keep the order of the crossed wires across the four narratives accurate (particularly since Mastroianni's role varies between each of the stories) and the occasional reliance on wordplay; however, it is still a rather creative design and an interesting experience. The stories delve into an almost Twilight Zone-esque style at points, emulating the occasionally maddening nature and the horror associated with sudden, profound change in one's lifestyle. Being unfamiliar with Ruiz's body of work, this is a film that will teach you as a viewer to avoid being set in expectations of plot when he has control of the pen. Unlike many accomplished actors of later years when the entered the later stages of their careers, Mastroianni was not satisfied with simply carrying on based on the strength of his name alone, continuing to involve himself in interesting films up until his last project.
