Emmanuelle
Considering the limited budget and difficulty finding actors to play in Emmanuelle Arsan novel and the effort by the producers and director to stick to the original book in defiance to censorship of the times, I would rate the movie 5 Stars. Sylvia Kristel performance ...

Oh so good!
It's amazing to think that the original story behind this movie was created at about the same time as the beginnings of Christianity. I watch this video once each year on Christmas Eve or on Christmas Day. It's a great antidote to the insanity of the Christmas season ...

Remarkable
As a professional film editor and Fellini enthusiast (I own over 150 scholarly texts on Fellini published in English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese), I feel well equipped to assess whether a documentary on Fellini is remarkable or mediocre. I have ...

Malle's Scandalous 'Lovers.'
Louis Malle's controversial 1958 film, The Lovers (Les Amants), tells the not-so-scandalous-by-today's-standards story of a middle-aged, French woman (Jeanne Moreau, Malle's love interest at the time), who leaves both her boring husband, Henri (Alain Cuny), and her ...

Interesting Film, better than what you can find now days
An Adult, not rated, film This is the first film in a trilogy (there are actually some other films that followed, just like Asimov's Foundation "Trilogy" ended up being more than three books) that stars Sylvia Kristel as Emmanuelle and spawned a large number of ...

Great Film-Poor transfer
This is a beautiful and very moving film,but almost spolit by a very poor transfer...The picture and sound qualiy are very poor. I have noticed this by dvd's released by Facets Video,Cammina Cammina being one example.But please do not be put off this film for this ...

a fascinating woman and artist ... broken under a world which did respectively she could not open up
A life in-between mania and raging passion This touching movie - shot in following the biography written by Reine-Marie Paris - respects Camille Claudel and her tragic life most powerfully. Isabell Adjani who pictures an amazingly striking similarity of the ...

The Grimace Of The Gods
The other versions are excellent as well, including Lon Chaney's silent epic; Charles Laughton saving Maureen O'Hara from burning Hollywood; and Demi Moore in her greatest performance in the Disney musical. But for my money, this is the version to buy and cherish. ...

Good Film, Poor Copy
"Banana Peel" is a good French comedy by Marcel Ophuls,(son of Max!) excellently interpreted by some great actors such as J.P.Belmondo, Jeanne Moreau, Gert Froebe, J.P.Marielle and others, unfortunately it suffers from having been badly recorded on DVD. The DVD is most ...

Mimsy Farmer
Vanguard Cinema, 2003
Amusing rendition of the literary masterpiece.
First of all, the "official" synopsis above is inaccurate. That it is possible for a critic to see the movie and then summarize it incorrectly should serve as a warning that this movie isn't very easy to follow -- unless you're familiar with the book that the movie is ...
