(Hepburn saves this turgid expoitation thriller)

(A must-see only if you're an Audrey)

(One of the best films on chic !)

(Audrey 's worst film!!!)

(Suspenseful, Sexy, Mason/Gazarra Worthy Adverseries)
BLOODLINE, based on the novel by Sidney Sheldon, is a good movie if only to see the radiant Audrey Hepburn in one of her final acting roles. She plays Elizabeth Roffe, who inherits her father's pharmaceutical empire following his mysterious death. Facing opposition and downright hostility from the board members (who also happen to be Roffe relations), Elizabeth's own life soon becomes threatened.

A boring script and meandering plot are the main factors why BLOODLINE never really catches fire; despite a star-studded international cast which boasts James Mason, Ben Gazzara, Irene Papas, Romy Schneider and Claudia Mori. The sweeping, haunting musical score is provided by Ennio Morricone.

Audrey Hepburn bravely leads the charge with an intelligent and sympathetic portrait as Elizabeth; this film was totally unworthy of her talents. Still, for Audrey fans it's worth a look.

If you are an Audrey-fan, you must see this film only for the sake of seeing it because you are a fan. Got that?
I have to agree with another review , this movie had me thinking when I was a teenager too , I loved audrey hepburn and all the cast in this film , I didnt read the book , maybe I should .

But I did love the soundtrack and have recently bought it again and now Im thinking maybe I should buy the film as well. Too bad its not on DVD format .

I do miss films like " Bloodline "

The snuff part I could have done without , but I also agree the bald man was a hottie .

How Sheldon's wonderful novel was turned into such a bad (and very boring) movie is a mystery. Good cast (Hepburn, Mason, Schneider) wasted...Buy the book instead!!!
James Mason and Ben Gazarra were still virile and energetic enough to pull it off as two middle-aged adverseries for the eternally charming Audrey Hepburn. Enjoy it for what it is, a straightforward, by-the-numbers suspense thriller with plenty of '70s fashion and atmosphere. The ending, where Hepburn must decide to believe either Mason or Gazarra, is great. Mason's 1978-79 performances in "The Boys from Brazil" and "Salem's Lot" and here made for a notable trifecta of quality acting.

(It's only in that moment that I've lived...)

(foreign version of Schindler's List)

(A bit confusing...)

(Didn't Get it)

(Shindler's List is King!)
Kjell Grede's "Good Evening, Mr. Wallenberg" is a noble but ultimately flawed effort. The story focuses on the efforts of Raoul Wallenberg to save Jews in Budapest during WWII's final days. Although he comes from one of Sweden's wealthiest families, there's nothing outstanding about Raoul. He's an ordinary guy with ordinary talents who hasn't done anything remarkable; as the film begins, he's an importer of luxury foods. But on a train trip, he happens to see Jewish corpses being tossed out of a death camp-bound freight car, and a father, who jumped out of the car to be with his dead son, shot and killed. This experience changes Raoul's life. As he tells the skeptical committee considering him for relief work, it's only in that moment that he feels he's ever actually lived.

Grede's film focuses on the very last days of Wallenberg's Hungarian mission: the exhausting scramble to bribe German and Hungarian officials, racing against the clock to try to save the Jewish ghetto, a dramatic standoff with a Hungarian fascist, despair alternating with hope, and finally Wallenberg's mysterious disappearance into the Soviet Union.

The best moments of the film are when Stellan Skarsgard (Wallenberg) and Katharina Thalberg (Marja) are on-screen. Thalberg is especially good as the Jewish woman whose children have been killed and who refuses to wear anything but a man's overcoat because, when the Germans come to kill her, she wants them to see her naked, as a real person rather than a statistic. Skarsgard, whose acting style is low-key anyway, plays Wallenberg with a subdued intensity that seems just right.

But ultimately, neither Skarsgard nor Thalberg can save the film. The writing tends at times to be melodramatic--ruining, for example, the final confrontation between Wallenberg and the Hungarian fascist. There's too little exposure of Wallenberg's interior, so his motives for risking life and limb to save Jews remain a bit cloudy (despite the "It's only in that moment that I've lived" scene).

Still, the film is worth seeing. It highlights the remarkable efforts of Wallenberg, and it underscores the fact--so easy to forget in our rather cynical age--that every life, no matter how "insignificant," is worth superhuman efforts to save.

Excellent story with graphic images that put you in Wallenberg's shoes. Incredible man. Incredible story. Must see film for Third Reich buffs.
This movie may be a bit confusing to someone (like me) who does not know the history of Raoul Wallenberg. However, the movie improves upon a second viewing.
Your asking me to review a movie I still have not received. When I get it, I can review it then.
Good Evening Mr. Wallenberg has a great premise, but horrible filmmaking. The special effects are cheesy - there's no blood when the people are shot, which is totally bogus. Also, the copy that I received (which is being sold as authentic) is a cheap reproduction of a VHS tape (so it appears). The sound is horrible. The image is pixelated, and it freezes when you try to rewind it. This movie sucks a big doo-doo man! Don't ever, ever, ever in your life compare it to the likes of Steven Spielberg's 'Shindler's List'.
The story of Raoul Wallenberg, one of the greatest unsung heroes of World War II who saved the lives of tens of thousands of Jews in the Budapest ghetto.

(Very nice costumes&a interesting set.)

(Amazing Artistry)

(Horrid!)

(makes me soooo mad)

(Could've been better)
This is a little bit more like a ice show that has been made into a movie. But it is interesting. The children are cute and the historical charactors and costumes are very nice. Katarina had a bit of a problem to deliver her lines. She should take a few more classes. But as an olympic gold metal winner of course her skating and dramatic flair was beyond question the best. The story of course is that the prince falls in love with a 'common' women and wants to get married. He of course has to give up his throne to marry her, but by the end they have found a way he can keep her and the throne.

Katarina is a beautiful women and well accepted in Europe. I am surprised that they are not offering her more jobs here in America. I know I would like to see more of her in various specials and other programing.

This movie is one of my favorites. It came out quite a few years ago and I first saw it on TV in 1998. I personally love the music of this movie and especially love that I can watch this movie in such a small amount of time. I have always been a fan of Katarina Witt and will always be impressed with her style of skating. This film is an original, it was produced in 1997, long before Disney's Ice Princess was probably even on the drawing board, so there is no rip off of titles or themes. There is an European influence on this movie and it shows. I hope that other's look at this movie for the artistry behind it and enjoy it!
There is nothing good about this movie unless you like watching German figure skaters trying to rap.
makes me so mad to see this movie copy ice princess. it sucks. they stole the title and the love between the girl and boy and the ice skating. heloooooo, copying will get you no were!
I was interested in seeing this movie, so I rented it from Netflix. Anyway, I really didn't care for it. Certain parts were alright, but I could've done without some too. If you want to see a good skating movie, rent Cutting Edge.
Former Olympic and World Figure Skating Champion Katarina Witt stars in this stunning contemporary interpretation of the classic tale of Cinderella.

Former Olympic and World Figure Skating Champion Katarina Witt stars in this stunning contemporary interpretation of the classic tale o Cinderella. THE ICE PRINCESS combines a top quality costume drama an original soundtrack from songwriters Christopher Cross and Curtis Stigers, and world-class ice skating in a family spectacular, which will delight audiences worldwide. Katarina Witt is Ella, a maid in the household of a blind Count. The town is preparing for an ice skating festival to be held at the Prince's palace, and the Count's daughters are determined to capture the prince's heart. Their plan falls apart when the Prince is captivated by the beautiful Ella, who invites the Prince to skate with her. When Ella is thrown into prison, the Prince searches in vain for the beautiful stranger, who finally appears at the ball held at the castle. The pair fall in love and the story ends with a stunning ice dancing display.

(Inferior Release Print)

(The excellent night)

(moderately interesting; less revealing than promised, but...)

(Not tonight...)

(Daniella By Night)
It's been through the projector's film gate too many times.
Film scratches, extreme contrast and low resolution
make this Elke Sommer classic difficult to watch.

Beautiful and cute Elke, I enjoyed the movies very much.
But I am greatly disappointed to see that the most inportant scene of strip tease cut off,the picture on the movie's package.

This performance, the last by Ms. Elke Sommer, supposedly before she did films outside of Europe, has a moderately interesting story, where Ms. Sommer plays a fashion model caught up in a murder and some intrigue in Europe. It has one brief, all too brief, scene, of some topless women and a brief bit of breast, and some bottom, shown by Ms. Sommer, which, I guess, for 1962, was pretty revealing, but less than promised. (...) She's cute, but not worth more than what I payed for it (...).
The opening title sequence is cut in half--enough said. Not a good transfer. In my opinion, this is one of the worst film transfers my eyes have ever seen. Wait for another transfer of Daniella By Night to come out at some point, and then purchase it.
Stay Aaway from this movie!
Starring the original sex kitten Elke Sommer, DANIELLA BY NIGHT is Elke's last French film before beginning her American career. Daniella (Elke Sommer), a beautiful young French model, leaves for Rome with a contract from its leading fashion house. In no time she meets the finest of Roman society... and becomes embroiled in a murderous spy plot. DANIELLA BY NIGHT is notable for its famous nude scene of Elke, its climax atop the roof of the Musee d'Orsay, and a scintillating score by music great Charles Aznavour.

(About A Child Who Was Never A Child)

(Bad Movie!)

(AVOID THIS MOVIE)

(Parisian girl leaves adolescence behind)
17 year old Parisian, Beth, lives in poverty with her sick mother and little brother. When Beth's good looking boyfriend suggests she get some experience and sleep with someone ugly-the uglier the better-Beth comes to the realization that her life is probably going to be one of continual disenchantment. She seeks solace in a man who might be like her idealized Rimbaud-a heart broken writer living in a sparse apartment-to no avail. She dumps her indifferent boyfriend who has now become incensed that his sexual object has spurned him. At her mother's insistence,"I've done worse things for you", Beth sleeps with Sugardad, a 65 year old "doctor" and her mother's lover-for the money to leave her existence behind. As her mother prosaicilly puts it before Beth leaves the apartment to go to the doctor's house, "You're no longer a child". One doubts Beth ever was.

Typical of French films, the story arc here is not strong and the references are subtle, so know what you are getting. This is not a loud American film. As Beth enters Sugardads apartment, she goes into his examination room and adjusts the examination table to prone position to suggest the sexual encounter that is about to happen. And though everyone says Beth is no longer a child, we watch as Beth dances on the carpet while waiting for Sugardad to answer a call, placing her feet toe to heel as if balancing on a curb she's trying not to fall off of. Sugardad's examination room is covered in cobwebs, but his phone is ringing off the hook-an allusion to the fact that her mother is a morphine addict and Sugardad her dealer.

The acting here is wonderful and the story charming. I enjoyed this film, but it isn't uplifting. However, it is a lighter and more beatiful version of the completely gutting "Lilya 4-Ever".


This move was a complete waste of time and money!
Talk about a build up to a let down ending... This movie is not erotic. In fact, it's not even entertaining. I thought the French were better at making this kind of movie... I guess not though.

EROTIC NOT IN MY LIFE TIME, NUFF SAID
This is a charming little film made in the agreeable French tradition of Vadim, Techine, Kieslowski, et al, in which the film itself reflects the director's adoration for its pretty young star. In this case we have Director Benoît Jacquot adoring Judith Godrèche, who plays a poor but principled 17-year-old Parisian girl disenchanted with her life, in particular with the choices she has in males. Her boyfriend tells her she should sleep with somebody ugly. Just why isn't clear. He is referred to as "whatshisname."She meets an interesting man, Alphonse, played by Marchel Bozonnet, but he is too old for her and, at any rate, still enamored of another. And certainly she doesn't want her mother's lover, referred to as "Sugardad," who is in his sixties.

Godrèche herself is as natural and unself-conscience as a child. Dressed mostly in thin house dresses that cling lightly to her body, she displays the clear eyes, the clean jaw line and sculptured arms of youthful innocence. The camera adores her face and stays with her throughout. Clearly she is good and good to look at, but I would not say she is as enchanting as Krzysztof Kieslowski's Irène Jacob (La Double vie de Véronique (1991); Trois Couleurs: Rouge (1994)) nor as talented as Juliette Binoche in Andre Techine's Rendez-Vous (1985). And of course not nearly as sexy as BrigitteBardot in Roger Vadim's And God Created Woman (1957).

But comparisons are odious. This is a good film in its own right. The treatment suggests a short story from a literary journal, original, with quiet, unexpected tableaux of daily life leaving one to ponder. The climax appears without one's knowing it until the film begins the closing credits and then one understands what happened. There is a dark symbolic element throughout suggesting the bondage to the material world that comes when a girl is no longer a child.

Vietnamese-French actor Hai Truhong Tu is excellent in a small part as Godrèche's Chinese friend.
Judith Godreche (The Man In The Iron Mask, Ridicule) stars as Beth, an enchanting young Parisian girl whose boyfriend, in the middle of a petty argument, dares her to bed the ugliest man she can find, to test her love for him. What follows is more than a test of love; it is also one of courage and will. Three men cross her path: an older man whose mistress is Beth's invalid mother; a young, inexperienced boy her own age; and, finally, 40 year-old Alphonse, a handsome, mysterious stranger.

Taking a simple premise and a beautiful young woman, Benoit Jacquot has created a masterpiece of French cinema, capturing in full the talents of the young actress Judith Godreche and displaying beautifully his own innovative style.
