Serene perfection, the violence is expressed as human little chaos and Kazan, instead of the efectism of the beating, concentrates on the aftermath: Monty asking Lee to get married, after she pray for it. Jo Van Fleet is excellent in each second, she is just proving somethong, taking accounts, demonstrating. Wondferful.

Early oblivion for this non nominated, non understood film: its not the adventure itself, its the obsession with a Machu Picchu kind of discovery that proved to be impossible in that jungle.

A classic in many items: clash of actors, cinicism in the press as a way to satnd at injustice, trust in America, and so on.

Plummer is too old for a role that required much life. Maybe Scott too, because t¿here is a Citizen Kane with kidnappers transnational story wasted.

Spielberg como un Ford o un Kramer, no pierde de vita que en estos casos el fondo del relato es tan importante como el relato; prensa e igualdad de género, dos temas fuertes y de moda, sin que se esfuerce por hacerlo notar.

After the scandal Woody is a world apart being so inside american culture, nothing less than a wonder wheel in 1950s Coney Island, and melodrama. Kate Winslet deserved a nommination,but after Woody's scandal...

I like the sincerity to strike on the hipocrits around the skating sports. Its not the purpose of the film to consider Tonya is half innocent, but it gets somehow to that. the mother and the fat rat, are great supporting characters.

La puesta en duda de la identidad en el relato de la infidelidad,que siempre es intriga y engaño. La chica es confundida por la esposa con la otra aunque bien pudiera serlo y luego no es reconocida por el causante de todo.

Todd Haynes meets Jumanji, or child adventures in a museum, mmmhh, just to rescue the silent film images with Julianne Moore in a Lilian Gish mood...

An actress in crisis, good theme for a moderated narcisistic, korenaoccidentalized referenced director as Sang-soo. Good pre ending in the restaurant with demoralized actress, guilty director and astonished crew. Then tha calm of the seaview.
