(Mu) Magritte meets Dracula and James Bond; Robbe Grillet is a bit amusing and linear in this detective dreamy surrealist sexy tale...

(Mu) Neorrealismo a lo Pedro, brutos, sucios pero no feos, porque no puede dejar de haber feeling homoerótico y humor cachondo (notable la escena de Maura y Forqué con el exhicionista). Maura es el corazón de la pela y esta ubicua, subversiva, espléndida...

(Mu) El largo preámbulo es lo mejor, lúdico, con interesantes secundarios, divertida casi caricatural escena del jurado, buenos diálogos en la fiesta del premio y en boca del autor; luego viene la divagación de tema y estilo en Berlín....
