It's a mix of Macbeth, Hamlet, and Oedipus set during the rise of the Third Reich. It's got perversions galore: fratricide, parricide, pedophilia, incest, gay orgies, and more. The film is also bursting...
Pairs well with Bob Le Flambeur. Mid twentieth century French gangster films are highly under appreciated in this Italian gangster-run society.
Decent movie but I certainly wouldn't ruin my career over it.
This movie had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Clouzot was a master of suspense!
Extremely solid early talkie and gangster film. I enjoyed this a lot more than I was expecting. The chiaroscuro and cinematography of this film is absolutely exquisite for a film from this era. Also,...
This film is an unrelenting nightmare. Just as the bureaucracy of the legal system suffocated Joseph K, Orson Welles suffocates the viewer, making us feel as overwhelmed and as crazy as Joseph feels....

Wow. I definitely wasn't expecting this movie to be this good and I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting to see some boobies in a movie that released in 1937.
The structure of this movie is kind of like Broken...
Beauty and the Beast in the Metaverse. It's a musical, sci fi, and coming-of-age movie all at once. Belle deals with themes of grief, loneliness, abuse, loss, love, and more within the package of a...
The payoff at the end is great but it really takes it's time getting there. The film has beautiful cinematography and great acting but I was a bit confused by one thing: wasn't alcohol illegal in 1925?...

We get it. Leda is a bad person.
This film reeks of a certain kind of pretention that can infect films made by successful actors-turned-directors.
I would say that I'm not old enough to enjoy it...
Is it kind of tasteless? Yeah.
Is it, at points, almost pornographic? Yeah.
Is it kind of dumb? Yeah.
Is it entertaining? Yeah.
You could pair this movie well with Nightmare Alley as both are about...
To all the dudes saying "this is just Macbeth": What did you think this was, Hamlet? LMAO
The credits for this movie is 15 minutes long.
The second half is much better than the first half, but this whole film is kind of silly and it ends up becoming the start of a series that never came to be.
Was it just me, or did the humans look...
This was better than No Way Home.
This was one of the most early 2000's style films I've ever seen. I forgot how cheesy this movie is.
3 stars for the Angelina Jolie naked (but not showing anything) in a shower montage.
