(OK) New vison and my same old refusal of racism: it not only simplifies character and facts, distorts scenes (the girl cound't be raped, she had to kill herself; mulattos has to le lascivious more than clever, bah)...

(OK) Full and early sychoanalisis, too much explanation of character and his dream, and a not too explored surrealism spirit that could be Buñuel and Dali's...

(OK) Wise man Wise, his direction accompanies Crichton intuitions on machine, war and security systems, there´s no manicheism here, there´s something else in the long description fo tehnical proceedings, there´s a sort of observation of future...

(OK) Hey! This is Lewis at his best before "Gun crazy". The plot is wonderful, direct, extraordinarily exposed, subjective point of vue is mocked by facts, there´s as much surprise as suspense...

(OK) What else, Tis is myth, Sisifus and absurd, and poetry with repetitions and geometry and cadence, and paroxims and even those heavenly choreographies in wich you understand why subversive Laurel needs dominant Hardy...

(OK) The world is a stage is a murder is the wrong girl, all Hithcock is here in a sort of heavy talkie with some style (expressionist settings) deviations. Certain problems of rythm but you forget with wonderful scenes as the false murderer being mocked with an applause in prison or the killer hanging...those kind of suspensions in the air are so hitchcokian...

(OK) Like a good 4 chapters of the serie, with creative use of color, and funny gags on old bloody England. The invited cast, Teery Thomas, Hermione Gingold and John Carradine is very amusing and amused.

(OK) A good Lloys thanks to 2 big chained gags scenes: the magician tuxedo he uses by error and the fight in the stage. The double woman who manipulates him for love is a good plot.

(OK) The drama of being way in victorian England was peculiar, everything goes through other institutions as class and breeding and education... Maurcie is without knowing, a great disturbing character. There´s passion sometimes in the frozen Ivory waters...

(OK) Funny film, great duo Simon and Berry, but the argument loosens when Berry is kidnapped in a kind of russian country... the plot was to good to be so manipulated...
