It trash. But its very enjoyable trash. The most interesting aspect to me is the directors relationship to his leading lady. Being married to her at the time, she was obviously the visual focus, even if her characterization lacked focus all together. Similar in a weird way to And God Created Woman, also directed by Vadim, except when he was married to Brigitte Bardot.

The House of the Spirits (1993) - Rated 28 Apr 2016

The source material gave this film great potential, but overall fell flat of the magical realist masterpiece it could have been. The acting was not as bad as it could have been (The actors have given good performances in other films), but the casting was unfortunate. I long for a better adaptation of this amazing novel.

A Trip to the Moon (1902) - Rated 28 Apr 2016

The hand painted celluloid makes this not only a cinematic treasure, but an artistic one as well.
