Happy Birthday Marcello Mastroianni!!! | Sept 28, 1924- Dec 19, 1996
"When I make films, I am absolutely happy. That’s why I make so many films. This is a most beautiful thing, to be with 60, 70 people on a set and to make stories. It helps me to act. I work seriously but never take myself seriously. I want to enjoy myself—really enjoy—like a child. Because all actors are children … And when the film is finished, I am looking for another film. Otherwise my life is a little more bored."

Nothing has ever made me happier than this post.
I like how not even the Criterion dvd blurb writer could ignore Tatsuya Nakadai’s handsomeness. (Also, the summary of the film is pretty great.)
