Trio review

(OK) 2nd of the trilogy and 2nd best. The verger's has a rounf nice ending; Nigel Patrick as Max Kelada is superb and Sanatorium is a short repressed film more than a good sketch,

Quartet review

(OK) First and less interesting of the trilogy. 'Facts of life' is the most tricky with the mischievous but loser Mai Zetterling, The kite is poor, Alien corn has a good hard ending and The colonel's lady is a good picture of a surprised patriarchal society with a poor happy ending

Elena and Her Men (Paris Does Strange Things) review

(ok) So relaxed that is kind of difficult to see, a recurrent theme in Renoir, of people being surpassed by their affections, and powerfull charaters longing for another kind of live as Marais in the end. And Bergman and Ferrer staging a kiss, love that moment...

L'école des cocottes review

(ok) Vodevil with no visible ambition in the beginning, but adds to a snesible protrait of a cocotte being victim of her frivolity while other characters assuming thier autentic feelings...

L'école buissonnière review

(OK) Some corny moments, but there's the era of the renewal of teaching in a rural school, apprehending life and universe from the little town...

Blood for Dracula review

(OK) Elegant, pauses rythm, long exposure of blood and vomit; perfect locations, pauses acting... sexy moments...

The Dupes review

(OK) The drama of having no country and dying going almost nowhere. Two films in one, the first confusing intro and the route in the dessert...

Elles étaient douze femmes review

(OK) Mirande behind Lacombe; all star cast (Rosay dominates even over Morlay), with some good choral scenes, even the films advances in huis clos scenes...

Dumbo review

(OK) So nice little linnear tender straight Disney. The dreamy secuence ant the clown number are great...

Du côté d'Orouët (1971) review

(OK) Nothinf til there´s everything in vacation life: season, sun and heat, wind, rejcted love, and the little laughs and nuisances of the day...
