(OK) Rare and excellent, and in a way representative of Laurel and Hardy possibilities. Is there the archeology of Marily'ns great blowing of dress scene in "7 year itch"? Here Laurel has no lingerie and two women dismay, jaja

(OK) How Jeff Musso ended in Peru filmins a few bullshit films, I don't know; but his naiveté and energy is astonishing here. Barrault helps a lot, makes everything convincing. in this puritain killer...

(ok) It´s true, there´s somethinf raw, extreme, harsh about Universal late westerns.here Ivonne as one of the desired women facing Montgomery's savaga lay: when man is killed his wife of the one who takes her first...

(OK) In 60'2 Italy they manage genre mixin as well or better than in Hollywood because of the multieuropean cast and great locations, here Venice at its best.

(OK) Lourcelles consider this in his Dictionnaire, but don't sure if as an example of meta lingusitic humour, of the pilling up of clises wiht the alibi of humour. Grahame is not even turpid, not even sensual....some moments and gags kind of fun

(OK) Just fon once I've seen a chines film abstracted from its social actual grounds, even if its locates before the revolution. Has intimism till individualism, frustration, delicate cruelty, contention, romance...

(OK) George Sherman is an excellent artisan and here amuses himself becuase the circomstance and the genre allows him. All is centered in Blyth sex, religios, supertritos, 3 civilizations, around her, around it, and all the clisés of the genre in glorious tehcnicolor Universal knew the genre, oh yes.

(OK) Dreyer in a circular or spiral story, not so clear in intention (he celebrates melodramtic supertitious fatalism, or rebels against it); not yet poetci in his contentions, as later

(OK) Jena Boyer is a kind of french Richard Thorpe, excellent dominion of genres, here the musical, with imaginative visual solutions (the singing 'cadres')...

(OK) Strange film as strange is the topic of jockey education in a pretty bad rural school. Paul Frankeur is as cruel as passionate and moving, he is the spirit of the film more than the abused boys
