“(OK) Nelson Pereira hace sentir el agotamiento del agua y la energía, en la primera parte, la violencia natural contra los animales (la muerte del loro), la civilización brilla en falso esplendor en la incursión en el pueblo con ropa incómoda y una noche en la prisión, y vuelve al ciclo de la s” read more

“(Mu) A discovery, a gem of two worlds clash (in fact one world with displacement of tle little master from city to sea village, from prosche to girlshome); a tragedy predicted by all but asumed by its characters...” read more

“(Mu) Has all the images of policial abuse, well studied and selected, but has too many one sided opinions (only one police speaks) on violence of state and not a wide explanation on violence os society...” read more

“(OK) Apart from a weak actor as Scipione; everything is brilliant. From Cabiria to this Scipione mass action in italian cinema is in its peak. Hannibal is so moving loving theforeign land he figths for; Sofonisba is the perfec Cleopatra, her king is a 'don´t ask a madman for his madness' great supp” read more

“(Mu) Not only a rounf Rohmer in 4 chapters, but a study of so opposed and complementary characters : a stubborn, naif, intuitive girl from the country and the cold, rational, sometimes anarchic girl form the city...Le heure bleu in the first chapter is as miracolous as le rayon vert” read more

“(Mu) A subtle irony (in the story because in style and acting is more obvious) illuminates and warms the film. One of the less documentary Varda's...” read more

“(Mu) Conventional love story wih bonus track of nice songs in the making and Dublin setting and pathos...” read more

“(Ok) No loss with Pagnol. As playfull as human and deep; long dialectic scenes, Fernandel at his best with Orane Demazis so at home and Charpin so vivid...” read more

“(Mu) Valliant, audacious (in the use of renactig with an actor for securiy reasons), partial as it is humas rights at the stake against crime and torture, a refuge with vivid cases....” read more

“(Alcázar) References to some films and nostalgic item (licorice pizza are the vinils), yeah, but those are details; reference to coming of age, love and playfull jealousy among two wonderfull characters, great natural acting...” read more

“(Mu) Rohmer rounded up a great proverb (les amis de mes amis sont mes amis) with a rectangular love story (well there's no love stories in Rohmer films, but 'des afinnités electives' and pieces of seduction)...” read more

“(Mu) Indie with language economy, dry and tender humour, you choose, texans myhts (the gold in the mountain), fight for women,...” read more

“(Nx) Almodóvar menor, sino fuera por la historia provocadora el humor a expensas de la irreverencia (Sor Rata, Marisa Paredes de masoquista, el tigre de Maura), sería insufrible. Ni los números musicales tienen mucho encanto. Julieta Serrano como madre superiora y Chus Lampreave están mejor que” read more

“(Mu) Zanussi is so inventive that sustains admirable a narration with less than episodes, graphic explanations, some dramatic scenes (as the hero coming back to an angry wife), a good route to literal 'ilumination'....” read more

“(NX) Tres estrellas y media es poco para Almodóvar. Aquí trata de explorar lo noir -todas las películas hablan de nosotros, le dice el ex cura a su querido Gael, saliendo de una película que no sabemos, cuando ya han decidido matar a Ignacio- pero ahí se queda, en un crimen cuyos resultados que” read more

“(Mu) Simple, nice, the experimental side (mixing still shots with motion) flows, the shots of the tree and nature normlaizes the ghost/human tale...” read more

“(Mu) The part in Phillipines is much better, because the narration in off plays wonderfully with the poor surrondings; when in Europe, in cheap or forced humour. The ice facory, the circumcisions, the Werner Von Braun, the bridge, that´s the core of the film.” read more

“(Mu) Big debut for Bengal. Has all: Rural erotism, critci to feudal India, melodrama, contrats of generations and rich and poors. Shaban Azmi is wonderful in her naiveté, sumitting sexually to her patron, carign for his deaf husband, and, at the end, cursing..'You are cursed by the poor people', sh” read more

“(Mu) Why Martha makes me as angry as her central character? The heroine is unsufferable as other Meszaros heroines, because she doesn't share her truth with everybody, even when supposedly is being honest...” read more

“(Mu) Lavardin/Poiret is too central here, not just the cop, but the old flame of Lafont and the one who solves the crime, covering the assasin girl who killed in self defense. The intrigue of the not dead father i weak. But Chabrol and Poiret don't loose the flair” read more

“(Mu) Lavardin enters when the story and toned is setted, but is fantastic pressing handsome Lucas, who is the real hero of the film, in spite of his psycho mother Stephane Audran. Small french cities are perfect for polar...” read more

“(OK) First complete Sirk melodrama, music as one of the themes, some mystic and painfull scenes, some emphasis in angles, boy most of all a good narration in spite of two and three times story...” read more

“(OK) Musis and easy romance in a mix of Spapin and Arabia, with russians in Hllywood marine style. Donlevy is spirited and Eve Arden is funny, becuase Ivonne is a lousy dancer and Aumont is a big smile and not the handsome star he could be...” read more

“(usb) Pretty thoughts an images, with syncopated speed,on 'mediated' lonelyliness, even suicide; and love findings...” read more

“(Usb) Lucia narrtaes her story in nice tone, but there´s no other voice, not even the director. Not even a question about her controversila decission of abandoning her career and the meaning it had for fight against racism...” read more

“(Mu) Great cast in an exhuberant multilayer (two historic moments and a operatic one) , 'drole', comic, with some tragic touches in the past....nice background the seminar... Ardant is so mature here...” read more
