(OK) Japanese awakening to such topics and forms and styles and audacious approaches, are earlier than otther so well known cinemas... The senaual noirich melodrmatic tragic stuff here culd semm aged but has its charm...

(OK) More experimental than any other thing, close ups trying to replace the dialogues wich are so great because of its documented preservation; great in the brink of the silent art agony...

(OK) So delirious, subsersive, absurd, more than Hellzapoppin; the continuity is just W.C and his ominous nose...

(OK) Some of the best of De Oliveira. Story is buñuelian and metalinguistic and 'meta telenovela', circular and vicious,and with deaf humour. Cast is irrelevan in this early 100% portuguese Oliveira's because of his declarative style...

(OK) History ans story, charater and action, saga in construction, violence and subtlety, the film where seuences equally great as the horse´s bloddy head and the death of Godfather playing with grandson....

(OK) Theatre went to the movies at it best. Cocteau has the real of writing, directitn actors and everything; the plot points conceibed by Gabrielle Dorziat to involve wonderful Ivonne de Bray are so ingenious...

(OK) Jessua here is a kind of french Michael Crichton, but more into character tahn action, building slowly his thessi and mystery, more psycologic scienci fiction, than anything else. DEwaere tragic and great...Stephane Audran amuses herself...

(OK) Pretty fist 'legere' romantic part, then the war makes it a lost paradise wirh gravity and all. But a very good balance after 'Fin du monte' and 'J'acusse' heavy stuff. Gravey and Popesco and Presle, excelletn cast...

(OK) When Kusturica was already absolutely baroque, but with a spinal theme and image, rhe Malik boy wandering sonambule thrpugh the night between dramas of totalitaris over people and infidelity (we don't imprison men for fucking bur for sayin anything against Stalin)....

(OK) More moving than funny. Langdon sad face sad man, loving an impossible woman and child that are going to be reunited with his father, infornt of his absolute stoicism...
