Greenaway at his best is exhilarating, even tear-inducing if not in the usual way.

vertical features remake might be my favourite but all the early shorts I've seen are good

three months pass...

Somehow, according to imdb, Peter Greenaway has two films in post-production and three in pre-production. Sometimes I wonder if his late career is funded by a high-end money laundering operation, but I guess he had the last laugh over Parker.

RIP and all but I cannot fathom choosing Parker over Greenaway (as the OP does) in a million years

Greenaway risks more, so he fails and succeeds more spectacularly.
