Well here is my week:
Okay for a lazy Sunday, I had forgotten that TV Superman was in it though.
Since it's based on true events, it's very interesting to follow, it's a good movie, and could have been better, maybe I'm old fashioned but 150 minutes of shaky-cam is just too much. It's still a worthwhile movie though!
After having trouble to get the grips last week with Pride and Prejudice, I was very hesitant to watch another movie version of a Jane Austen novel, but I have to say that this movie had another flow that made it a bit easier to follow. If it's because of the original novel or how it's interpreted
I'm the wrong man to question.
Been so hesistant to watch this movie, thinking it was some cutie father daugher stuff. Damn I was wrong, it's a very entertaining little tale of con artists in the deep Kansas area during the depression of the 1930's just after the prohibition.
László Kovács' black and white cinematography, is simple, smart and breathtaking, meant in a good way.
This was an old favorite of mine and I was looking forward to seeing it again.
It actually dragged in parts, what saves it from tedium is the great Cole Porter songs, sung be some of the greatest voices America ever produced, Well did you evah!
Sparse and biting pre-fame Ingmar Bergman, about love affairs and if they results in anything when married to someone else, and how to respond, take responsibility or pay as an anonymous giver. Better than I thought it would be, though some dialogues are too long.
The Warning is PRC, so it's a low budget movie that is now in public domian. A variation of Agatha Christie's And Then there were none in the sense that characters get's bumped off, but based on a play by Bernadine Angus, that only made 21 performances on Broadway.
Cinematographer Ira H. Morgan (a big name in the silent era) adds a certain plus too with a few camera angles, as did some of the olde actors Zucco, Atwill, Cowan and Borg.
In old movies like these, there has to be a possible young couple that survives.
This movie has John Whitney, whoever that was, is so incredibly bad and stiff, the older established actors just seems to look, OkeY1 let's move on, and hope we get payed.
Veda Ann Borg is a cool name by the way, LOL
Who else but Veda!
Chingaling and see you next week!
