Movie Review - Spirits of the Dead
Histoires extraordinaires (1968)
"Metzengerstein," dir. by Roger Vadim
rating: no cravats
"William Wilson," dir. by Louis Malle
rating: 1 out of 5 cravats
"Toby Dammit," dir. by Federico Fellini
rating: 5 out of 5 cravats
on VHS from As Seen On TV
Roger Vadim and Jane Fonda both belong together - in Sleepersville - and Malle saddles Brigitte Bardot with a wig so constraining it hurts me to see her wear it, but "Toby Dammit" is as essential as Juliet of the Spirits, as funny as 8 1/2, and my favorite Terence Stamp role since always.
