“(Mu) The narraon in off doesn´t match the scenes in most of he film. Brialy is just playing in an amateristic way. The scene in the Cahiers du Cinema office (its Tuffaut there! ) is a cameo in itself” read more

“(Mu) The greates story in the most simple way. The baptism of Christ by John the Baptist is my favourite scene, just the elementos, specially water and men and supposed sanctity. Pasolini sublignes the rage of Christ and finds a lot of biblic quotations, The deglamorization of the Hollywood bible fi” read more

“(Ok) Garnett shows his early talen; more character and atmosphere (depicted in excellent travellings in the street) thn action. Even the fight in the end, is pure atomosphere...the happy end is conventional, the spirit remains tragic...Handsome Holmes and Marjoria Rambeau are the best. Twelvetrees n” read more

“(Mu) Salles takes too much time, and laousy non lineal narration, to reach the characters and hoy they hit or are hit on the road. Once in the car with Mama, or in Lusiana, naked in Arizona, Mad in Mexico, sad in Denver, the film camen closer to honour Kerouac” read more

“(Ok) Ah, Guitry never fails. He warns that everuthing is whimsical, disbalanced and loose here, but what matters? There are ideas and stars and some witty historiacal scenes as Michele Morgan maipulating (all women are great manipulators here) the king into marriage and convertion ('Paris is woth a ” read more
“(Mu) Alba Rohrwacher is the soul of a film that has some soft baroquism and mixed tecniques that no neccesarrily serves the essence and the plot. Those animation or figurative details distracts from the drama” read more

“(OK) Golden evocation of gay sensitive Paris of the early 1900, when movies and love were made in such wordless expressive ways.
