Review of The Devil-Doll (1936) by Antonius B — 22 Oct 2017
Tod Browning surely had a knack for making strange movies with queer plots and characters, and technical brilliance. This good production is entirely in this spirit with truly marvelous special effects.
Lionel Barrymore became a revelation to me with his superior performance in a dual role. His rendering of Madame Mandilip instantly brought to mind Robin Williams' Ms. Doubtfire and don't Barrymore's charisma and manner of speaking remind you of Jack Nicholson?
