(MU) An irish incursion in apparently asceptic asian Singapore, but finding there somo familiar, funny noirish touches, fantastic ones on ideas on death...

(MU) Expresionismo deconstructivo de la imagen animada, que se construye con y apartir de los elelementos y texturas colindantes, hay escenas notables en ese snetido aunque dificultan contar la vaga historia de la chica que escapa o pretende escapar de la colonia y alucina chnachitos como hijos...

(MU) One of Gremillon's marterpieces, his 'bete humaine' and 'quai des brumes' a la fois; Renaud is his piece de resistance dramatique, as she is in "Lumiere d'eté"; here with a tragic aura, while Jean and Michele have an impossible and quite on going affaire...

(MU) Short story, gaysploitation, but has suspense, little effective plot points, evasive violence...

(OK) Powerfull, non manicheist (terrorists are terroists, even the women leaving bombs in the worst ways and places), non lineal but comnprehensive structura, even sexy and startling...

(MU) First of Carrpignano's 'trilogia calabrese' is the most weaken, but starts some theme and characters (there it is Pio Amato, two years before coming of age movingly) . All is black and italians surge in ambiguous ways...

(OK) Leslie Caron at her worst; Walters, so so. Not decided to be a musical full of fantasy, not decided to be a realist costumbris tale...

(OK) Ichikawa brights accordinf the sport : in the water is confusing, but the strenghtens muscles and the effort in the faces, in the races in slow motion, with the excellent photo and camerawork overall the film, is worth the viewing. A dry narraion, with enphasis in japanese sports; there´s no the sex and mystic of Rifensthal...maybe Ichikawa was to prudent...

(OK) Outstanding, the hipothesis is sharp and consistent, the false documentary strategy is dubious but terribly effective...

(OK) Good, great story, but pathetic main characters. The old lady is too naif, the 'hero' or 'antihero' is too stupid...but the travellings following them inside the shop or in the street, some scenes ascending in dramatism...
