Don Juan de Marco (DVD, 1998)

Although some may say this is a 'CHICK FLICK', I highly recommend it to any man who 'doesn't understand women'(or himself, for that matter!) When a suicidal young man, who believes he is 'The World's Greatest Lover', is sent for counseling,he is believed to have a serious 'personality disorder'.(We've seen it before..Napoleon complex, etc.)He begins to tell his story,trying to validate the events in his life to prove it.As his tale unfolds,it is so well constructed,and shows so much wisdom gathered by such a young man,that his Dr. begins to try to put some of the new perspectives into use.Surely his insights seem very well-balanced. Marlon Brando & Faye Dunaway are a wonderful couple, and work these parts so well, that you must fall in Love with all of them. 'Don Juan DeMarco's' stories give so much insight into Life, Love,and the perceptions & misconceptions we cling to, that his viewpoints start to become crystal clear as not only very sane, but Genius! But could he possibly really be this Don Juan fellow he claims? YOU must make the decision. But remember... it could shake the very foundations of what you have based your relations on as grown-ups/adults!Your whole Life could change. In the end...does it really matter if he IS who he says he is? A wonderful heart opening, mind shifting movie! Go for it! You won't be disappointed!(Plus the Spanish Guitar music, scenery,costumes, and theme song will stick with you long after the movie is over!)
