fernando posted a review of King Richard

“(USB) The one and only champion, but here with a family coda, there's father plan, good sister, relegaes mother, trainers, race, some colectivization not pretentious, of the champion stuff” read more

“(OK) Great story, noir with social ambition as a plus. Cummins works and Mature, well, his wide back resist critics. Barrymore is convincing even in her caricatural ending...” read more

fernando posted a review of Live Flesh

“(OK) Un relojito de almodovarismo, melodrama puro con arrebatos de pasión, perosnajes que se explica y hasta dicen lo que no hicieron, incecencia e ingenuidad con eficacia total; el héroe es un hijo del transporte de Madrid, la ciudad y muchas cosas habitan en él...” read more

fernando posted a review of tick, tick... BOOM!

“(NX) A musical in progress, a professional autobiography, that is as ineresting as frustrating. The HIV early nineties stuff, the essays, the one and only who can win, those topics are more american than universal...I wann see "Rent"” read more

fernando posted a review of The White Rose

“(OK) Fuck Griffith social and moral observation, he'll always be late in that; the romantic and melodramatic mood with the glorious articulo mortis wedding, that the film..” read more

“(MU) More 'simply bad' than 'film maudit', but who can resist such a cast? Varda must've felt guilty to have such great people doing nonsente (¡Denueve and De Niro improvising an idiot scene, Moreau and Schygulla looking each other trying to do something, Belmondo and Lollobrigida in lousy cameos, ” read more

fernando posted a review of A King in New York

“(MU) Gorgeous restauration. Chaplin as a royal witness of America's materialism ans lack of nobility, not in the monarchial way but in the humna. Just see his sober silent expression when he realizes the boy has benn blalckmailed to accuse his parents comrades...” read more

fernando posted a review of Le roman de Werther

“(Yt) Ophuls is already an excellent 'caligraphist' with camera and sets, and same time as romantic and fatalist -with small town Goethe's angst- as in "Liebelei". There´s some pathos in each romantic impossible encounter...” read more

fernando posted a review of Sunnyside

“(Mu) A working man in a small rural place (the poor working man is so close to the tramp that his sunday clothes... are those of the tramp), with a naif Edna, fightinf for her with some weak gags. The best part, for its lyric naiveté, is Chaplin dreaming a ballet with nymphs...” read more

fernando posted a review of The Idle Class

“(Mu) Some of Chaplin greatest gags and they belong to the idle not to the tramp. When he forget his pants and try to hide or when one thinks he is crying after readng a letter from his wife and is shaking a drink with soda; all that is better than the tramp non negligeable part...” read more

fernando posted a review of Pay Day

“(Mu) My favorite Chaplin short. All a round day, ending when he is trying to sleep the night out. There's almost an unreal atmosphere with the durnken worker trying to catch the last full tramways and mistaking a kiosk with a suassage for a bus....the glory of gags, and so inserted in story...” read more

fernando posted a review of A Day's Pleasure

“(Mu) Some excellent gags in the unstable boat with couples dancing and people throwing, as effective as in 'the inmigrant', and Chaplin walking over a fat woman used as a bridge. This is not a tramp film, this is middle calss family man amusing us....everything is lighter” read more

fernando posted a review of A Dog's Life

“(Mu) The tram in his bottom, as a dog, in a bar of thieves and women forced to prostitution, with holes in his pants, sleeping in the street; robbing and being robbed. More social background than gags” read more

fernando posted a review of DumbLand (2002)

“(OK) Funny and rare, some good ideas as the man with the stick in his mouth being 'saved' but in fact victimized by the neighbour, the essential fat hard Lynch urban monster” read more

“(Mu) First Lynch, so personal he makes a loop. Stylish, simple, six figures throwing figures, ok, no more to ask this author in progress” read more

3 years, 4 months ago

“(Mu) Pure Lynch, but obscure if you don't know the series or forget it. More symbolich than surrelaist, but has pace and atmosphere (the sequence of the sordid bordello is great), great acting of secondary characters, great directing...” read more

fernando posted a review of If I Were King

“(OK) Greta chratacer for adventure and romance, Francois Villon, curiously not exploited by french cinema but Hollywood at its best. Colman has the charm and the density, Frances Dee the naiveté, Lloyys the hand and the resources... Rathbone is too cartoonish but it works...” read more

fernando posted a review of After Love

“(SemanaUlima) Classic and effective, the right cultural landscape (Dover and Calais) to set a story of a man wth two families and the clash between them after the surprise of knowing each other after his sudden death), but is better planted and told...” read more
