Movie #242 The Red Shoes *1948*

I blogged about The Red Shoes in post # 168.  These are my 3 Reasons to see The Red Shoes:

Reason #1.  It is the greatest movie about dance ever.  No question.

Reason #2.  Amazing Techicolor through the entire movie.

Reason #3.  Anton Walbrook as Boris Lermontov is perfect!  There is no other person that could step into his shoes.  Mild pun intended.

I give The Red Shoes ★★★★★.

Movie #168 The Red Shoes *1948*

Oops.  I saw this film in October and forgot to post about it.  That might be because I wouldn't shut up about how wonderful it is long enough to type anything.  So I am going to cheat and give you my 3 Reasons.

Reason 1.  The greatest dance sequence ever filmed.  Hands down.  No question.

Reason 2.  Amazing Technicolor!

Reason 3.  Anton Walbrook as Boris Lermontov (the ballet director).  He is masterful.

Rating:  ★★★★★.
