(OK) Cheap and simple, but there´s certain schematic abstraction with a crocodile just for dispose the human rests, and extreme cruelty (Dr, commands the monster to kill his fiancee) that seduces.

(OK) The greatness of the firs part with many bonus: coloruful secuence, musical numbers/scenes. There´s no the great agonizing scene of the first one, but there´s the feast in wich Ivan decieves his treacherous cousin...

(OK) Oh, greatness of subject and character, yeah the tzar is hamletian and more: he has doubts and compulsions and believes in traitors. Close ups are wondeful, and costume pinting expressionistic characters...

(OK) Thorpe had his best cycle in this classis adventures. Here's gallantry and its code besides everything else, the ellegance doesn't sacifice ation: tha main battle ans castle assault in the middle and the multiple duel, are excellent...

(OK) Lang in a certain minimalism of form and resources, but many facts and twists, the genie langian schematism. Andrews cool and Fontaine cold, Nichols charming and vulgar...

(OK) So dificcult to judge such effort so creative and intuitive in film language, and so conservative in everything else. The grandilocuence and the grandeur of sets are marched in a rare way...

(OK) Romantic comedy a la hollywoodienne. Banale, but there's a protrait of a powerful woman in the parfum industry in quid pro quo with a savage and in a way gentle artista, wth certain charm

(OK) A minor Ford, but with flavour in other land. Humour in every inch, but the anecdtoes are a bit trucuclento for the idea of having just a normal rich journey...

(OK) Dwan has here an excellent hand for comic cotidianeity, choral protagonism with an anchor in Winninger and Lockart. It's even pedagogic in teaching he value of circulating money...

(OK) Ray anticipates the spirit of Peckinpah's "Junior Bonner". Afeter the great secuence/idea of Mitchum crawling under his house to find some souvenirs from childhood; begins another film with a trio and rodeo agonic independence background.
