I felt like it was kind of a waste.
I did enjoy the movies light style(at the beginning atleast), but even then it all revolved around the scenery and setting. There wasn't any dialogue that pulled me in.
I know it's not as drastic but imagine if Citizen Kane still had all of the technical advancements that it does, but the story and plot never took themselves seriously. Imagine if there was no "Rosebud" and instead the movie ended in a somewhat jokingly parodic manner.
I know how revolutionary it was for the French at that time, but I can't see it as a timeless film.
