But his means at such times lead him away from abstract, formal stylization, where another director would change the lighting or choose a portentous camera angle for emotional emphasis. At one point de Sica, fresh from the torture room, is dragged back to his cell by two guards. A fellow prisoner walks by him away from the camera, then turns to stare. The camera zooms with unbelievable rapidity or rather, jolts-into his face, and zooms out to a long shot as the man begins running to cells, banging...

Unlike a good family fight, a bad one sounds dull, mean and petty, though Colleen Dewhurst as the whoring sister gives a performance that is etched in sulfuric acid...
Scurvy may once have been the curse of the Arctic mariner; on the Manhattan, where three meals and fresh fruit are served daily, the only threat was to the waistline. In 1819, the ice-trapped crew of the Hecla passed the Arctic nights by performing Garrick's Mm in Her Teens; on the Manhattan, the glacial boredom was punctuated by a movie every other...
