The Four Feathers review

Great epic sense, alternated with sweet but blood England tradition. Richardon is great in every scene, is dramatic even remaining quiet.

The Prowler (1951) review

Rare for Hollywood standards. Losey in crash course with censorship. It´s imposible to wash the pasional adulterous, sick romance. Evelyn Keyes, ¡an underrated actress¡,barefeet says all about sex. The noirish tones are kinf of washed, maybe because of plain phto and supporting cast, and music. The end in ghost town Calico in hard to believe, but tolerable.

The Blue Max review

A surprise. The best of Guillermin. Subtle plot of ambitious and corruption transversal to high and low classes. Germany is doomed in its pretty heroes. Great aerial photography. Perhaps Jeremy Kemp is the only gentleman. Good ending supported with Mason acting. Úrsula and Peppard are ok, because they underact

La Vérité review

A predictable drama court, even in its ambiguity. BB is guilty but proves the jury is wrong when distrust her suicidal attempts. Clouzot dissapears in the conventional sexy flahsbacks plot. BB dancing nude under the sheets, for Sammy Frey, is the highlight.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1956) review

A color blockbuster for french standards, importing Gina from the south and Quinn from Hollywood, but honoring Hugo in dialogues and massive scenes. Cuny is excellent as Frollo, murmuring his lascive repression. Gina is pure lust, Quinn is ok.

The Prince and the Pauper review

Good work of Keighley and Dieterle, ando of all WB artisans and technicians, great decors, sharp dialogue of Montagu Love perhaps in his best rol as Henry VIII, and Rains. Its a pitty that the efforts to force Flynn in the plot and make a familiar film, washes all.

The Notorious Bettie Page review

I saw it because I just wanted to know something about Bettie Page. I was unsatisfied because the story is distracted with the vintage look, the debate around pornography, and losts Bettie's character

5 Branded Women review

Best of Hollywood and Italy, with a efectist and trite war plot. Ritt is powerful in spite of the circumstances, and allowed to be sexier than in USA, in the scene with the 5 girls in the pond.Each love affair is too much radical sacrifice (Moreau kiling Basehart, Guardino ann Miles executed, Mangano waiting death with Heflin)

Volaverunt review

Bigas Luna visita el jet set histórico congregado alrededor de las majas. La duquesa Aitana domina a pérdida, porque la reina Sandrelli define su destino, Goya sigue pintando y Godoy conspirando, todo decantado en una cena y un misterio barato. No se porque, tal vez por agilidad y la piconería que parece auténtica de Penélope, le pongo un 3

Ladro lui, ladra lei review

All the neorrealist comedy world, with small apartment with view to the trains, a scene in wich poor girl Sylva is embarassed with the visit of boss Ettore Manni and little brother is defecating, etc. but screenplay suffers from some indefinition, Sordi is and is not Sylva boyfriend, she is and is not a 'ladra'...
