Review of Under the Volcano (1984) by Steve K — 12 Sep 2009
This shattering tale, about a struggle for transcendence, has a notoriously thin plot. The experimental-ism of the source material contrasts with veteran John Huston's Classical Hollywood style (and a slightly daft Alex North score) for an intoxicating effect.
Finney's performance is surely his finest hour and is not to be missed.
