The Year of Living Dangerously

So I totally LOVE Billy. He's kind of creepy but has that super knowledgeable and wise thing going for him. I loved the when he was explaining his puppets and mentioned the quote, " All is clouded by desire". The cinematography was pretty cool too. It was very shadowy and dark but it added to the darkness the movie the story was based on. It made it seem like paintings. Overall the acting was really great but in my opinion, Billy stole the thunder. He was so passionate about people and what was going on. I also really enjoyed the ties to Tolstoy

I was also super surprised when I found out Billy was played by a WOMAN! Linda Hunt did a great job. At first I thought his voice sounded very womanly but yeah, she did a GREAT job! Even won an academy award!
