Review of Monsieur Verdoux (1947) by Kristi W — 02 Jul 2010
Clearly I just don't understand these old movies. Must be a certain time period that just goes over my head. I watching this one thinking ok it's got to pick up, something interesting has got to happen to make this more fun to watch.
It never did. It wasn't even really funny. The main character is this creepy guy who woos middle aged women and then takes money for them. He has like a million wives, some of whom he kills and some of whom he doesn't.
I was completely unsatisfied when 'The End' popped up on the screen. Not enough comedy OR drama OR suspense to justify spending over an hour in front of a TV screen. Not terrible, but not recommended.
