fernando posted a review of Cabin in the Sky

“Minnelli is complete here, black or white, and with 'heavenly' plot; Waters is as greta as Horne in her few scenes. There's sense of space (Waters running to Eddie being shot; thu tornado¡¡), and music” read more

“With such a cast handled good by Wood, does'nt matter how stagey could be. Pidgeon is great explaining why he has to allow Gable to sacrifice pilots, Donlevy is also great trying to make a decision, even Hodiak is ok” read more

fernando posted a review of September Affair

“Great love affair, by a cosmopolitan Dieterle. Jona is great, delicate; Cotten is cool. Locations are elocuente, Npales, Capri and Florence, there's a 'Viaggio a Italia' qulity now and then; and Francoise Rosay is always a good support” read more

“(OK) This and "Born to be bad" are professional, unattractive plots for Ray, but how he learns form acting here. Grahame is so wonderful now I understand why he married her.” read more

fernando posted a review of The Female Animal

“(YT). If it were for the beginning reprised at teh end, a big Hollywood scene mounted for the plot, would deserve 3 stars. Sterling has good bitchy dialogues against men. Nader is a semental, Lamarrvelous is ok. Powell is lousy and miscast.” read more

“(YT) She is ravaging. at her peak of beauty and real acting in some moments. Stevenson accompanies her well till the plot becomes a naif love story with O'Keefe. Loder (Lamarr's husband) is better.” read more

“Melodrama noir by a Mielestone commited to his material. There's a bit of real destructive passion between Heflin and Stanwyck, specially in the hill bonfire sequence. Douglas is great in his debut.” read more
