Review of Quiz Show (1994) by Chris T — 11 Jan 2007

Die Hard 8.5.

-1988, time was no CGI, characters are more raw, the story is less real, there are more cartoonish characters almost, but it makes the story more interesting, unique.

Sunset Blvd. 9.

-Her intro symbolized silent films, her overacting is the same overacting required for silent films.

-Great script, very self-aware and very crafty.

-Max?s character especially good.

Quiz Show 8.

-Good film, not very unique.

-Turrotor was excellent, breaking between crazy and loveable.

Sunrise 9.

-In a time when audio was possible.

-Has fully accepted silent films, uses it to its advantage as text is repeated, slowly fades in and melts away to create power.

-Amazing effects and editing as it is able to bring characters into new worlds as they get lost in the moment.

Paths of Glory 8.5.

-War in a raw view, it takes a look at how top level officials are asked to attempt the impossible, it doesn?t matter how many die.

-People are estimated by percentages, it is an acceptable amount to let die.

-Corruption and missing morals.
