So I haven't thought about the critics for a long time.
Goblin was a new band and this was their first major work. The oldest of them was only 18. They were very talented and I wanted to give them a break.
This is in contrast with some of my other movies where I used Ennio Morricone for his ability to create an epic feel through his music.
Then I realized my early work did have something special that audiences adored apart from what I humbly thought about them. They occupy a distinguished niche in Italian film history and probably always will.
But now we have bought the film back and it will be shown in Paris in the original version for the first time in the next couple of months.
I've never gone into analysis. But Freud opened a door, I know.
Even in the former Soviet Union, they have good copies of my movies.
