EDIT “A bittersweet hymn to the city of Valparaiso.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 22, 2020 Full Review EDIT “Somehow, the film is engrossing even while being static, and what remains, finally, is the question of identity, the uncomfortable feeling that we can never know ourselves or anyone else.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 17, 2020 Full Review Men and War (1970) EDIT “Unfortunately, Yammato doesn't have the genius for montage of Eisenstein and the film covers such a vast multitide of events that it is almost impossible to become involved in it.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 17, 2020 Full Review Marigold Man (1970) EDIT “If there is a sweetness to despair, then Marigold Man succeeds in accomplishing this difficult feat.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 17, 2020 Full Review Le Streghe (The Witches) (1967) EDIT “With few exceptions, all omnibus films, with as many directors as there are stories, have neither style nor substance and are unmemorable.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 9, 2020 Full Review The Hawks and the Sparrows (1966) 85% EDIT “This film has limited appeal for any social class and is therefore almost a total loss.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 9, 2020 Full Review Sacco and Vanzetti (1971) 70% EDIT “This emotionally bludgeoning film should be seen.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 9, 2020 Full Review La Collectionneuse (1967) 75% EDIT “When will intellectuals learn that intellectualizing emotions does not engage them? Apparently. Eric Rohmer never will... he has produced one of the most tedious films that I have seen in a long time.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review The Nun (1966) 86% EDIT “I only hope that the public is entertained and instructed by this beautiful film and not misled by its notoriety.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review EDIT “The words are there, but the effect is canned revolution.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review A Gentle Creature (1969) 92% EDIT “It is not concerned with the moment-to-moment build of linear scenes to an emotional climax or catharsis.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Bed Sitting Room (1969) 64% EDIT “The culmination of [Richard Lester's] career to date.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Mexico: The Frozen Revolution (1971) EDIT “One should see films like The Frozen Revolution and read related books to be reminded that we are all implicated in their misery and are indirect accomplices to the exploitation.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Even Dwarfs Started Small (1970) 100% EDIT “The product of a rigorous imagination.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 8, 2020 Full Review EDIT “I'd hate to think that this is Renoir's last testament, but Barrault's film legacy is slender and this is merely a cornerstone to the career of a great actor.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 7, 2020 Full Review Destroy, She Said (1969) EDIT “It would difficult to find more self-conscious dialogue, and there is so much of it.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 7, 2020 Full Review Socrates (1971) EDIT “Rosselini's method is as simple and self-effacing as Socrates' life.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 7, 2020 Full Review Tokyo Story (1953) 100% EDIT “After seeing so many busy, ostentatious films with histrionic, even hysterical, direction, it is a relief to see one that is quiet and composed and tells its story in the most unobtrusive manner possible.” – Los Angeles Free Press Jan 6, 2020 Full Review
