I am surprized everybody likes this movie. Not me. If the movie is not on public channels its not worth it. Like my favored " When Harry met Sallie" which is shown regularly and after I watched it about 20 times I start thinking--United States is communistic country after all.
Additional trouble is I cannot buy this "Time of the gypsies" which again and again proves we dont need it.
Hahaha.
August 11, 2008Watched it today for the first time in a couple of years, having managed to seize a used copy from a closing video rental store. I figured it had to have been sold by then, but some sly, kindred soul had actually hidden it deep in the tape racks.
It still is the most harrowing and affecting cinematic odyssey I have ever experienced. Like receiving truth through magic.
How many five star reviews are necessary for distributors to realize the value of this film? Seriously...

I just want to add my voice to those who have expressed below, with more passion and erudition than I can, how magical this movie is. I saw it, bought it, years ago when I stumbled on it for rent at Tower Records. It is one of the only movies I own, I think about it's imagery all the time, I bring it up anytime anyone asks if I have seen any other movie, and I will always keep a working VCR player until they release it on DVD even if I never watch it again. It opened up a space, a room, in the forefront of my mind - the imagery is burned there, because it surfaces again and again, sharp as it was 15 years ago.
September 27, 2007I saw this film many years ago and still recall the visceral impact it had on me. This film has so much heart and soul and is so moving and visually stunning. This film needs to be re-released on DVD!! It is an amazing little gem of a movie. In the mean time I guess I'll have to settle for the VHS.
August 7, 2007Although it seems redundant to add to all these rave reviews of Dom Za Vesanje, I can't help but hope our fanaticism will contribute to the eventual release of the film on DVD. The cinematography is far too ethereally perfect and the music too sublime to go without digital remastering. This movie is the most soulful and somehow dignified tale of human experience and tragedy. It is also the first film ever to be made entirely in the Romany language. The actors, though they were mostly amatures, came through more powerfully than any first-world film star ever could hope to. This movie gave me a completely new outlook on everything. I hope this awkward review is helpful to somebody, and for Devla's sake, RELEASE THIS MOVE ON DVD!!!!
