DVD Talk review of 'Transylvania'
I read Svet Atanasov's DVD review of Transylvania at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=29993 and...
Hey PRO-BASS, thanks for reviewing this film, I have yet to see it, but I'll probably order it now. How do you rate all the Gatliff films you've seen?
This is how I rate the ones I've seen from best to worst:
1. Gadjo Dilo
2. Latcho Drom
3. Swing
4. Exils
5. Vengo
You think i'll like Trans since I liked Gadjo Dilo the most?

Musically, Transylvania is not as strong as Swing or Exils for that matter yet it goes a bit farther in examining Romany culture when compared to Gadjo Dilo. Also adding the Turkish-German actor Unel brings a very special flavor to this film. This certainly isn't Gatlif's best work yet!
As to rankings...I would simply add Exils near the top (and Latcho Drom on top perhaps).
