Prix de beaute (Augusto Genina, 1930) - theatrical

Such a dull, cliched story, and so, so much longer than it needs to be.  Not even Louise Brooks can redeem this one.









Mirror (Andrei Tarkovsky, 1975) - theatrical rewatch

Still a fantastic film, don't get me wrong; but as with Andrei Rublev what once held such wonder and amazement for me often comes across as somewhat more banal and stilted.  Many of the scenes retain their original magic though.
