New York!

Rome and New York - All though I really didn't like all the screaming when the girl was in the scene. I thought all the yelling '*beep* you' was really annoying, when I just wanted to enjoy the conversation between the two men.

the only people for me are the mad ones.

What, Helsinki was like the best. Then it was Paris, then New York, L.A and Rome.

New York! The best acting, the best scenario, hilarious.
2nd place: LA
3rd: Paris & Helsinki

I Hated Benigni!! Not my kind of humour. Just find him ridiculous...too much of a diva.

In order of how much I like them:
New York (well done and hilarious!)
L.A. (I liked the acting in this one)
Paris (Again good acting and sort of suspenseful)
Rome (bizarre, not my favorite, but not horrible).
Helsinki (just not my favorite for some reason....I liked the color scheme though).

Helsinki. I am a huge Kaurismaki fan, even bigger than I am a Jarmusch one. Anything with Matti Pelonpaa is like gravy for my fat kid soul.

But they are all pretty great. I expected to like this movie, and I did.

Helsinki. Really touching and heartbreaking stuff, and I think the ending is what ties the whole movie together and makes it so great.

Then LA. Because Gena Rowlands is a goddess.

Then New York. Young Gus Fring + hilarious scenario = winner.

Then Rome. Benigni's absolutely hilarious, but there's not quite as much going on under the surface.

Then Paris. Which is significantly weaker than the other four, imo. But still good.

NY for me too. And Helsinki. Third would be LA then Paris and Rome. Although Rome is first for comedic value.

LA, I'm such a huge Winona Ryder fan, it's no contest. Also of course being Italian, Rome comes immediately in second place

I have to say I almost died laughing when the Italian driver put the sunglasses on the bishop and left him there
