Movie Reviews of Lust for Life
Movie Review: Nonplussed for Life
Summary: 3 Stars
People jumping around like monkeys. Tall dignified monkeys, or lowly grimy monkeys, but monkeys none the less. Melodramatic, affected monkeys bopping around papery, evenly lit sets, with occasional exterior establishing shots. Stage acting? Silent film acting? Who cares. The activity of a scene ends and suddenly the lighting jumps 3 shades brighter, because they have inserted another film layer for a slowly cross-fading transition to the next scene. Yes, its one of those.
Its unfair to judge this movie by today's standards, and unfair to this review not to.
--Did Van Gogh cut off his own ear?
--Did he mail it to anyone?
--Was it all over a man or a woman?
Anyway, after the "accident" I found the decision to simply shoot Douglas from his right for the rest of the picture rather than create some kind of make-up special effect for his ear, a rather tasteful one.
If you are curious about Van Gogh, but not curious enough to read "Lust for Life" then watch it.
