Queen Elizabeth
41Leave it.
Bernhardt barely moves, and Zukor still used her to sell the feature.
Take controlThis scores 41. Queen Elizabeth cannot be blocked by name on this shelf. The lock is the phone. Block it
The review
The camera hardly bothers to move. Sarah Bernhardt is Elizabeth, filmed from a stage production, and the acting stays stage acting. Adolph Zukor brought it over. A house can watch and see why it mattered to the business more than to the eye. This is the picture that helped sell the feature in America.
I got restless, which was the useful part. You can love that a long film became something Americans would buy and still admit this print does not hold the eye. I would not scold a kid for fidgeting. I'd tell them Zukor's errand, give Bernhardt the opening, and turn it off when the stillness turns into homework.
Journal
Keep Queen Elizabeth in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 41. Yours can differ.
The glance
Household and Piety and Courage and Republic 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
Argo
53 instead of 41
Argo is still a history film, and it scores 53 instead of 41. What you gain is courage: They walk into an airport with nothing but a story.
The eight
- 6Industry
Zukor brought Bernhardt over, and that sale did more than the camera.
- 2Household
No child or marriage is the life; stage Elizabeth barely moves.
- 2Piety
Conscience is not the reel; a stage star is what Zukor sold.
- 3Courage
Bernhardt plays a queen, but the picture risks nothing you can see move.
- 4Republic
A queen on a stage, used to sell the feature to an American public.
- 5Temperance
It barely moves, so it does not train you to crave the next shot.
- 5Truth
The acting is stage acting, and the business claim is truer than the eye.
- 6Stewardship
What Americans were left was the idea that a feature could be sold.
