Heavy Metal review

Great designs and animation, sexy and tender and gore at the same time (Taarna swimming naked and then clothing in black and red weather is superb); but the relation between stories is weak and confusing. I would've preferred episodes.

Ride the Pink Horse (1947) review

I love it. It's respectfully exotic, softly noir, Montgomery is ok before and behind the camera, supporting cast is colourful but not noisy. The Wanda Hendrix aboriginal, magic stuff is a little heavy, but Thomas Gomez and the carrousel is great.

Ben-Hur review

Wyler and the entire production knew that the film turns around the charriot race. It is not the climax but the essence, the highlight, besides the battle in the sea. Nice framing. Harareet ok. Heston better than average.

The Search review

So corny and conventional, so deceiving, that yoy wonder if Hazanavicius' "The Artist" was a good film. The happy end, against so many muuder and sorrow, is kind of stupid.

Land of Silence and Darkness (1971) review

Great carácter, she explains everuthing because she´s afraid of being alone, that´s the drama of deaf blind people. You can understand it just seeing them interacting between them.

How much Wood would a Woodchuck chuck review

Herzog picks a good nice comic tender bizarre and even ordinary theme: Speedy speaking auctioneers. There´s one in "Stroszek", there are a lot here. Good text.

Fata Morgana review

So simple in elements and so difficult to film in saharian countries. Herzog hasn't found the relation between effort and results yet. We have to wait to Aguirre and Kaspar Hauser.

Mommy review

Moving in a strange way. The boy is so intense that you wanna kill him and then embrace his stupidity. Kyla is the mystery in the film, and remains so in the too sad end.

Love Me Tender (1956) review

Not conceived as a vehicle for Elvis, but it was anyway. And he sings forced in time and scenery (even Love me tender is based in an ancient melody). Debra and Egan command teh sexy western pace and story.

Saint Laurent review

It has his momments, surtout when SL defies his own limits (his dog's death) but there´s the meeting of same kind of freaks (Warhol just by mail). The balance is ok.
