Not as a Stranger review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 1 January 2015 10:12 (A review of Not as a Stranger)

To watch just for the cast, a washed melodrama, with some edge in the nonchalance of Gloria Grahame, and De Havilland's discoviering she is a romatic idiot. Mitchum too stony to such a delicate character, but ¡what a star he is!

My Foolish Heart review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 31 December 2014 07:34 (A review of My Foolish Heart)

Forget it is based in a Salinger story. Robson is OK handling love encounters and disencounters between cool Dana Andrews and OK Susan Hayward. Robert Keith is a good support. Dialogues OK.

One Way Passage review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 30 December 2014 01:50 (A review of One Way Passage)

I loved it before watching it, and havent´t being deceived. Simetric in pain, love and gender (each one will die, each one hides the truth, each one takes the initiative), romantic and agonic but not sublime. McHigh and MacMahon takes care of its modernity. Garnett is not Borzage and thats ok.

Nymphomaniac: Vol. II review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 30 December 2014 01:47 (A review of Nymphomaniac: Vol. II)

Same as I, but less humour and more pervertion -and a noirish segment- going to a sensationalist and contradictory ending.

Nymphomaniac: Vol. I review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 30 December 2014 01:42 (A review of Nymphomaniac: Vol. I)

To take with humour, otherwise would be indigest. For moments, I prefer the austere present tense, with shy Skarsgard, than the dynamic past.

Le due vite di Mattia Pascal review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 27 December 2014 08:30 (A review of Le due vite di Mattia Pascal)

A modern picaresque, with a lighthearted but sometimes passionate womanizer. He is a looser but so moving when he wins... I love the fury of his friend when realizes Marcello has taken Laura del Sol.

Ill Met by Moonlight review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 27 December 2014 08:21 (A review of Ill Met by Moonlight)

I like flamboyant, heroic, adventurer Bogarde disguised as greek. Powell and Pressburger find the 'normality' in telling the war. Even the germans are ordinary fellows.

Stranger on the Prowl review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 27 December 2014 08:16 (A review of Stranger on the Prowl)

It takes time to begin with the hunt, and its annoying the boy's confusion on who is being hunted (if him or Muni); but Losey and Alekan are happy with the locations.

Till We Meet Again review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 27 December 2014 08:08 (A review of Till We Meet Again)

A minor Borzage, but you can find his romantic melodramatic force in Britton's close ups. If plot weren't so contrived and antigermanic...

Rock Hudson's Home Movies review

Posted : 10 years, 4 months ago on 27 December 2014 08:06 (A review of Rock Hudson's Home Movies)

Forced filmic essay of subtle, almots casual Hudson´s homoerotization in movies before he was known as gay.
