An American in Paris

40Leave it.

The dancing is a gift. The man wants both women until the film picks.

The review

Gene Kelly is why people still put it on, and the dancing deserves that. He plays a painter in Paris, kept by a patroness, in love with a girl engaged to someone else. He wants both for most of the film. The last sequence is a ballet. The art is generous. I'll give it that without arguing.

The romance is a man who wants both lives until the film chooses. Best picture doesn't launder that. A teen can have the dancing. Say which woman was keeping him and which one was already promised. The ballet is a gift you can keep. It is not a reference for how he treated either of them.

Keep An American in Paris in the record.

Live Historic number 40. Yours can differ.

The glance

Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth are the thin ones.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

West Side Story

51 instead of 40

West Side Story is still a musical film, and it scores 51 instead of 40. What you gain is republic: A street is a public.

The eight

6
Industry
Dancing and painting are the work. A patroness is paying.
3
Household
He is kept by one woman and loves another who is engaged.
4
Piety
He does not choose. The film chooses after he has wanted both.
4
Courage
The art takes nerve. Staying between two women is the delay.
2
Republic
He owes neither woman a clean choice, and the city asks nothing.
3
Temperance
Wanting both lives is the pleasure the picture stays with.
4
Truth
One woman keeps him while he loves a girl promised elsewhere.
6
Stewardship
The ballet is left for you. The women were how he lived.

Armageddon

40Leave it.

A father and a crew. The world-ending is a fireworks show. The sacrifice is asserted, not earned.

The review

Rough men who can do a physical thing are sent to do it in space because the polished men cannot. That is a populist feeling the film is not wrong to have. A father who has been absent tries to bless a marriage before he dies. Those are human scraps.

The scraps are tied to a firework. You will be told when to cry. You do not have to. If the house wants a film about a crew and a real cost, Private Ryan is the adult one and Apollo stories exist. This is a cheer. Leave it.

The glance

Piety and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

Doctor Strange

50 instead of 40

Doctor Strange is still a action film, and it scores 50 instead of 40. What you gain is temperance: His ego is the subject.
