The review

The father is in the house. That is what stayed with me. A man is bitten and becomes a wolf who kills people he would not kill by day. Lon Chaney Jr. The curse is the point. An older child can watch it. The body is not his to govern. I will not linger on the attacks, and I would not show it to a small child.

You want the daylight son to be the real one. The film refuses. He can hate what the nights do, and hate is not a brake. Neighbors are left with harm from a man who would not have done it by day. I was sadder than I was scared. Say that before anyone treats the wolf as a costume.

Bride of Frankenstein

51 instead of 39

Bride of Frankenstein is still a horror film, and it scores 51 instead of 39. What you gain is industry: A doctor worse than Frankenstein does the work of building her.

The eight

  1. 2
    Industry

    No job is the point; the curse replaces whatever work he had.

  2. 6
    Household

    His father is in the house while the son becomes the danger.

  3. 3
    Piety

    By day he would not kill, and at night conscience cannot hold.

  4. 3
    Courage

    The bite takes him; he does not choose the risk he then lives.

  5. 5
    Republic

    The people he kills are neighbors owed a man who stays a man.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    He cannot put the wolf down, and the change is what you came for.

  7. 6
    Truth

    The gentle daytime man is not the whole truth after the bite.

  8. 3
    Stewardship

    Left behind are people he would not have harmed, and a father.

A Streetcar Named Desire

A Streetcar Named Desire

39Leave it.

Adult, and too many men wanted to be the husband. That is reason enough to skip it.

The review

She has already lost the family estate when she shows up at her sister's in New Orleans. She still wants to be someone the world bows to. The husband is force, and the house is his. A sister is caught between them. I knew that shape, and it still sat badly.

There is sexual cruelty near the end. I will not describe it. This is not a family evening. A lot of men wanted to be that husband, and that fact sits on the film heavier than the acting. It tells the truth about force and about a gentility that cannot pay its way. It also recruited. I can grant the first and still leave it off the shelf.

Romeo and Juliet

51 instead of 39

Romeo and Juliet is still a drama film, and it scores 51 instead of 39. What you gain is republic: Two houses owe the town peace and would rather win than keep it.

The eight

  1. 4
    Industry

    The house is his by force, not by a craft the story respects.

  2. 8
    Household

    Sister, husband, and a lost estate: the broken house is the life.

  3. 2
    Piety

    Wanting a bow is not conscience, and his force does not stop.

  4. 5
    Courage

    She risks the last house that will take her, and that house is his.

  5. 2
    Republic

    No town or law steps in; the apartment answers to force.

  6. 2
    Temperance

    A lot of men left wanting his part, so the want was fed.

  7. 6
    Truth

    The wish to be bowed to comes due, and the bill is the house.

  8. 2
    Stewardship

    Left behind: his rooms, her ruin, and a pose men copied.

Ask the men in the room if they envy the husband, and do not start it for anyone who says yes.

Keep going

The next title is the one nearest what this house keeps, then the measure where it is thin. Nothing here is a crowd. It does not leave this device.
