Review of Under the Volcano (1984) by Markku R — 25 Sep 2012
While this is often compared to 'night of the iguana' I found it a much more fulfilling experience. huston was 78 when he made this and proves he still had it in him for a project he cared about.
one of the few films that gets mexico right. a decent adaptation of a so-called unfilmable novel, a showcase for albert finney as a last stage alcoholic, and one of jacqueline bissett's best performances too.
bravo!
