Oporto of My Childhood (2001)
Memories Are Made of This
By Jeffrey M. Anderson When directors less than half his age only manage one movie a year or less, 93 year-old Manoel de Oliveira has made two, this and I'm Going Home. (He's already finished yet another that we probably won't see until next year.) This hour-long pseudo-documentary reveals a scrapbook love-poem to Oliveira's hometown in Portugal. Scrabbling together old films, blurry photos, recreated period footage, poems and music, Oliveira shares his own memories of the way things used to be. It's a sweet and ramshackle treasure, much like Woody Allen's Radio Days.
