(OK) An hommage to Grable legs, excuse to hail heroes (Guadalcanal is a glamour card of presentation) and the silliest idiot plot, of Grable impersonating Grable. A number with Hermes Pan is ok and the long militar number at the end is too much...

(OK) Tay Garnett builds an epoch, carefully, solidly. Garson is convincing in her extremes. Peck is most determined, as Gladys Cooper, as overacted Barrymore, but they provide the strokes of melodrama.

(OK) One of the most frivolous Cukor's. Crawford is ok in that, good contrast with sometimes drunkard March. A bit stagey. John Carroll, pretty Rita, Hussey. Bigel bruce, cabot, good supporting...

(OK) Maravilla de Florián Rey e Imperio, le sacaron lo mejor de técnica a la UFA. La música no le debe nada a Bizet, es original, cante muy jondo cuando ora al torero muerto, y ligero cuando lo hace a piconeros y rivales.Hermosos diálogos...

(OK) A fine 'charade' resting in Danielle charm; some fun in seeing the group of actors acting a scheme for Préjean, and then other and other, and the film somwhow bites its tail...

(OK) Otto is so elegant to undesrtand institutions and politics, even if it has to soften the passion of characters and action, or , in the contrary, bringing them to other meanings...

(YT) Realistic in epic, size, humour of some characters; buy the good Bannion and the bad Alan Hale are too schematic. Great tableaux of conquest of the west...

(OK) Oh, an isolated noir, in which Duryea seems to know everything is gonna happen, but can't cope with Jayne´s love. Good monologues; good character of Sister Sarah, findind she's been robbet from a strank viewpoint (the hole of her safe)...

(OK) Encouraging during war; after that, just remains elegant austere sets for a dramatizaed ritualized trial; and some elocunet moments by the tortured (you don'd see the tortures) americans...I miss the pacifist Milestone of "Allquiet on the western front"...

(OK) The only interes is the early technicolor and charm pair of Annabella and Fonda. Her travestism is stupid. One idea: the old gypsy fighting to be alive while her horse competes...
