Review of A Double Life (1947) by Robert P — 08 Apr 2008
Magnificent dark sudy of the dark side of acting and a fine early example of filming the stage. Multi-layerd and insightful use of language, editing and sound to create a portrait of a man disintegrating into a vacuum.
INtersting to note how the "real" version of the story is more filmic than the theatrical one. Although momentum is lost a bit as the police investigation starts, the darkness and depth is never lost.
