L'Impératrice rouge Notations et commentaires

  • Tyler S29 mai 2025
    For all the elegance and style used by Sternberg here what makes this movie work for me is Marlene Dietrich, she's one of those actress's I can just stare at and be happy, she was a star that had a screen presence that completely commands your attention (Sternberg clearly knew this, half the runtime is her framed beautifully in close-up). As for the plot, it doesn't really draw you in until the halfway point and gets surprisingly horny, you can tell this was a Pre Code film. Worth checking out for Dietrich with a side bonus of some extravagant costumes, set designs and some creepy as hell gargoyle statues. 👍 6.5/10
