Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
A Game for Six Lovers/La Denonciation (1960/1962)
- Excerpt: These are two early features of Jacques Doniol-Valcroze, an important and overlooked figure in the French New Wave.
Peking Express (1951)
- Excerpt: This is China via Hollywood, with the story a loose remake of The Shanghai Express (well, there is a train journey, a shady lady, a man carrying a torch for her, and a backdrop of civil unrest) spiced up with a family drama and some action sequences.
The Unguarded Moment (1956)
- Excerpt: Lois is always shown as firmly telling the truth, a person victimized by specific men and complicit attitudes, so the audience is placed in this female context of identification and paranoia.
