Reviews
Flowers of St. Francis: Rossellini’s Masterpiece, Co-Written with Fellini, Starring Aldo Fabrizi
The movie was not intended to be a biopic, but rather a portrait of some specific aspects of St. Francis’s personality, like his whimsy nature as “The Jester of God.”
Mummy, The (1932): Karl Freund’s Pre-Code Supernatural Horror, Starring Boris Karloff, Zita Johann
While less profitable than its predecessors Dracula and Frankenstein, The Mummy was still a commercial and critical success.
Bridge to the Sun, A (1961): Etienne Périer’s WWII Interracial Melodrma, Starring Carroll Baker, James Shigeta
The response was mixed to negative, with critics faulting the lack of solid drama and authentically compelling characters, resulting in a flat and obvious picture.
