(OK) Cinema novo, specially Glauber Rocha treated this as 'nouvelle vague' heores treated some of the best french cinema before them; and there are some of the smae topics and races of style, even a poetry of sertao subversion...

(OK) Good ol' Dmytrick with this psucho thriller, straigt, hard, with great Newton that survives heavy dialogues with Scotland Yard's detective...

(OK) Leisen here is a mixture of Cukor, Minnelli and freudian Hitchcock. His stylish choreographical Techncolos dreams are unique. Ginger was not the best choice but al least dances when its needed...

(OK) Lucas's wonderful years´s 'vitelloni', all summed in one night woth a twist. It is Dreyfuss who travels and not his encouraging friend. Each one of the 4 male characters live his own light nghtmare...

(OK) Nice, well constructed, simple in its twists Carriere scenario for a story so interesting that the judge narrates it. Best things are undesrtated or explained by Baye and Depardieu when the judge asks for an explanation. Excellent setting.

(OK) In spite of a bad copy, great atmosphere of inner hatred and contras with the busy street and the protagonist's bar...Kinf of absurdity makes this not as realistic as it pretends to be...

(OK) New and strange background -politics and unions- background for a french 'it' girl (even it is interesting but unglamoruous Morlay). ;ore than that background, the musical and dance world is better depicted. Great edition

(OK) Cayatte, good storyteller and good director for heavy topics that even justifies preaching (here against death sentences)...

(OK) No nonsense child´s play, but everything goes to an edifying end. Funny playground the kids in the stagecoach...

(OK) As light and charming as a Hollywood musical, with cameos (Martine Carol and George Raft!) and orchestra life acting support (Ray Ventira) and irresistibe tunes , 'a la mi aout'....
