The Black Book (1949) review

Grear french revolution thriller, the small budget allows the perfect equilibrium between respecto for history and entertainment and pace. Arlene Dahl better than ever helping Cummings to be a hero against Basehart/Robespierre and with a little hand by Fouché/Arnold Moss.

Experiment in Terror review

Tris to escape conventions, tries to be new kinf of washed evil, but Lee remick could be Dors Day involved in a crime. Too confident in police and its methods and a bit of idiot plot

The Great Sinner review

Hollywood visits Dostoievsky...and in spite of a conventional happy end, the proceedings are dginified by Siodmak, an impecable Peck, and the evil rdeemed beauty of Ava.

The French Lieutenant's Woman review

Great story, the grat character is not this strange not too fascinating for everybody but for Irons, who descends and elavates to amour fou

The Train review

Oh, Romy at her best close ups, a lagoon of peace just before the war, you can understand Trintignant posponing everything, war and even family

The Lady Banker review

Ambitious, full of narrative problems because of the specialized finantial intirguing items, contradictory approach to a contradictory character... Girod tries to be moving after being so cold

Madame Rosa (A Life Ahead) review

More story than film, but, at least, Misrahi avoid being corny or sensationalist. A kind of sadness and camusian (becuase or argelian references) imposes...

Lust for a Vampire review

It's worth seeing just for the scene in wich Bates (Giles) is submissive to Mirkala inverting the cross. Sangster, even submits himself to the sexy commercial trend in Hammer, finds new ideas.

The Wild Heart review

Powell is faultless, meaningfull: here is more than just an analogy between Jones and Foxy, is tha naimal spirit talking and talking its place in an almost rural english society and religion. Great Cusack.

The Heiresses review

Más allá del enfoque de género, me dijo una amiga, y acertó pues Chela, la delicada y disminuida, encuentra la libertad y la avenutura del auto, cuando Chiquita pasa sus peores horas. es pura circunstancias, puro margen de fileicidad en la supervivencia y en la decadencia, de dos personas, que ya cruzaron, por edad y situación, varias líneas.
