Borzage at its best with those sublimation of eroticism close ups, an inteligen argument (he tells his wife that he has to fake he could marry the boss's daughter, her mother runs a dobious business), and a sublimation of communist subversion too.

Some long routines on the simple basis of Harold in boxing business (with glasses), but some splendid gags when he poses as famous and thrills and shines ans throw his hat as a boomerang.

Lo mejor de Jodorowsky. Cronológica, maravillada sin excederse en detalles pues todos fluyen de lo más bien en el absorvente paisaje de Tocopilla. Ni se siente lo episódico. Me encanta el detalle de la esposa cantando todos sus parlamentos. La vuelta a la semilla de Jodorowski.

The sequence shot in the highway is worth the picture. Besides it, I like the humour in the route, Darc and Yanne over each other, hitchhiking, witnessing a 'lutte de classes' discussion.

Jerry at his best as gag, visual, dancing,clowning psicocomedian. In the commentary, he recalls the film as if Tashlin didn't exist.But there he is, giving the film its elegant, wonderful frames.

En exceso articiosa,pero Salvador del Solar, Vanessa Saba, la foto, Lima, Paracas y Javier Fuentes la hacen creíble.

Slow, long by comedy standards,verborragic scenes, but one solid argument: everything in the film points to the charitative spirit of Cooper ans its limits. Couls be the parabel of the good man.

A choral, East End, tender and vulgar symphony. Googie and her lost erotism fixed on Tommy Swan (McCallum)stands among everything.

Decontraída, un poco monocorde (quizá para subrayar,por contraste, la violación de Estrella); pero marcada por buenos diálogos y observación d epersonajes. El señor feudal del pueblo dice, tras la violación, "no lo hemos hecho por vicio, sino por política".

Seen again after reading Melville: all wich is freedom of time,explanation on whaling, relaxed structure in the book; in Huston is narrative conomy, selection of best lines.
