fernando posted a review of Pot o' Gold

“Half romantic comedy, half musical. Stewart in his capraesque style, debbed voice for singing. Nice Paulette, but the star is an excellent Winninger” read more

“Sharon daydreaming or moviedreaming with her film, after forcing her entreé, is happiiest Tarantino scene. But the end, after the alternative Tarantino pastiche murders, is as happiest. Cahill/Di Caprio enters paradise on earth, on Hollywood, Tate/Polanski house” read more

fernando posted a review of Les Misérables (1935)

“Boleslawski deserved more and better productions. Here is so tight and efficace, concnetrating in huge episodes and finding a solution to link to another as in the passage of March almost drowning in the sewers, going to the final match with Laughton at his house...” read more

“German 50s noir, crimes in the middle of war as the biggest crime. Siodmak tries this good theme/idea here, better if the serial killer is an arian madman, Mario Adorf, that provides al the prooofs (brigth sequence)...” read more

fernando posted a review of Morituri

“Huis clos in big ships, good macho chasta, always work. Brando/Brynner nos as enemies but too different actors of war, Martin benrath is the real antagonist, interesting actor but lacks brightness to oppose Brando. The Janet Margolin subplot is wasted...” read more

fernando posted a review of Bitter Victory

“Great, abstraction and concretion on the sand. I love the training mannequins as an intro to the adventure in the other world, fatalist and stupid; everuthing goes as sand on the hand. There's even a madman, but the madness of war and machism (that's Jurgens thing, ¿isn't it?) exceeds him...” read more

“Disperse, a musical that breaks and loses the essential of most songs and moments (don't like Fletcher) and images; but somewhat descends and sticks to earth. when Elton dressed as Rocketman, goes to therapy.” read more

fernando posted a review of Domino

“De Palma, old artisan, nothing of his better times here, not even a kinf of Bernard Herrman soundtrack in the long ending. More drama (buddy of dying cop befriends his wife and lover) than antiterrorist stuff. Nice Almeria setting.” read more

“A bit pompous, idiot witty plot of a professor of literature no telling his wife and daughter he is dying with cancer, the gay thing is played in ridiculous way, mmmh. Friend Danny Huston saves half the film” read more

fernando posted a review of Zoo (2018)

“Lo zombie usado como fondo de un teatro del absurdo romántico, la pareja triste(perdieron un hijo) que se da drogam se da su sangre y muere zombi encadenada. Dos o tres imágenes (ella tomando en copa la sangre de él), valen.” read more

“Oh, so simple and personal Jafir. Here descends in simplicity , he and a woman star, and ascends to memory and repression and self ruling in a small etnic town. Women are so advanced as in all Panahi's films. An image: Jafir sees in the distance, 3 women dancing in the old forgotten diva (we never s” read more

“Von Haselberg is a pain in the ass, but has some good material of concert, people speak not so sincere thing to him, but when are gathered singing (Joni Mitchell and Bob, for instance) is good. Boy and Gingsberg before Kerouac's grave in Lowell cemetery is forced.” read more

“Romantization of two historic/mythial characters that began, in the conventional plot, as enemies. Bah. Marx has some guts, Engels not too much; the final 'edition sequence' appealing to the writing of the Communist manifesto, is aged.” read more
