    meatpile -- you'd like leolo.

    An unusually fertile imagination is at once the salvation and downfall of Léolo (Maxime Collin), a young Montreal boy growing up in a highly dysfunctional family. In order to cope with the chaos of his daily existence, Léolo invents a rich fantasy world into which he retreats. Over time, the boy sinks further into his mental creation, ultimately eschewing reality -- and sanity -- in director Jean-Claude Lauzon's hypnotic, visually arresting film.

    It's very much a mid-60's movie. Just keep that in mind. :D

    It's ok :) I love older movies. I would have added Gone With The Wind, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, Eyes of Laura Mars etc.. but I didn't have room.

    Me and TMC used to be tight years ago when I didn't sleep. :luxlove:
