(OK) Great Bernard, the french 'all quiet on the western front', less elocuente, more cinic and for that reason human. 'Little lambs, where do you go?´shouts a passerbuy soldier to a truch full of other soldiers: 'to the slaughterhouse' answers one of them...

(OK) Nice soft Quine, with a controlled Holliday and italoamerican clises spread all over, but with a interesting side on domestic construccion plumbing stuff...

(OK) Tight, pre noir, bitchy Powell little cheap gem. The boss's wife, big character trying to decirve the hero and kill the greedy husband...

(OK) Such a happy feeling, an odd couple, and then, so naturally, hell is above Diane Court in the shape of his monster nice father. Good Crowe debut...

(OK) So powerfull, no character but action and edition, and of course the idea that people is character stands out; a film of its time, no doubt, not a year after it was done...

(OK) The absurd of the situation, the contrar of two mediocre fellows and a huge boat chases by a tribe, anchored, are better than the gags (well, the underwater repair of the ship is outstanding)...

(OK) The structure, a wide range of time in few episodes, huge elipsis, a love story that accompanies the love story of each one with thier wife and husband; is worth everything. Alda and Burstyn more than ok...

(OK) All the junctions in the accidented chin of marvellous Ava. The ferroviary, the nationwide clash of pacifists and communists trying to receive India from the british nd Cukor directing as if he were an expert in tha field and genre...

(OK) There's so much production value in costume, set, music, atrezzo... and Zefirelli moves the camera in the moment the plot is weighing...the 'Nana' and the priest makes the drama palatable...

(OK) Whon can't love this? The characters are coming from everything you could see, including the crusades and its holocaust perpetrated by christians, and are resuming its own timeless legend. Each contact with the nun, each blow in a fight, each scar counts...
