Hitler - Beast of Berlin review

(OK) Early anti nazi film, early Alan Ladd's protagonism too, even he is expendable here. Stock stuff as always, but theré's some seconday characters with german flavor, doing the heil Hitler sign, first time in Hollywood.

Harry and Tonto (1974) review

(OK) Mazurky's 70s 'nomadland'. He gets the right mood in the beginning and the rest flows wonderfully, even when he visits Geraldine Fotzgerald in a retire home or when he leaves his grandoson to go to a comune. The encounter in jail with Chief Dan George, is pure Mazurky's humour...

Harakiri (1962) review

(OK) Great storytelling in a suspension of life and death, in one in a lifetime film. Perfect plot points and two stories that adds to the end, real japanese misery and false chivalry...

The Lawless review

(OK) Strong Losey, no nonsense depiction of a hell town, very comprehensive direction, love affair (Carey and pretty Gail) in perfect parallel with social thesis...

L'habit vert review

(OK) Nice, trepidant, good dialogues with a graps on satire. Popesco in excellent as the frivolous duchesse with a new affare that unveils her world. The gag of the love letter read in his husband speech (great André Lefaur) is excellent. Jues Berry amuses himself as always.

City Hall review

(OK) Another 'I erase myself in behave of how society functions' Wiseman, without limit of time and topics. I prefer "In Jackson Heights", less time and more concentratios of themes in space

Love Affair(s) review

(OK) A sort of late Resnais film: passions narrated and doing so anothrr passion is born and burnt out amd protagonists survive. The simulation fo the marriage is a pretty anecdote..

Malmkrog review

(OK) Very hard to see and follow, the text is too rethoric, empty sometimes, even the themes are important. I don¿t see a mise in scene of text and passions,suaf in the middle, after the false massacre, when they walkin the snow...

The Group review

(OK) Big Lumet, complex and choral; feminism thought in the sixties buy placed in the thirties. Good dialogues and storytelling, good cases in sepcial tragic Kay (Joanna Pettet) and Larry Hagman. This tragedy holsd the film and comes to a great ending...

Große Freiheit Nr. 7 review

(OK) Vivid melodrama, buddy film (Albers is a german hollywood hawksian character betweena womand and sea nostalgia), and sort of comedy with secondary characters...
