Negative Positive
Title: The King of Hearts
Review: This is one of the greatest films ever made and has a charming, subtle non-pedantic way of questioning oppressive and dehumanizing social values and institutions. It is magnificently acted - a stellar cast - and deeply moving. It endears human beings to us without being pollyanish. However, I recommend only the original French with subtitles. I saw a dubbed VHS version which destroyed the character of the film with its mechanical, lifeless dubbed voices. Also, PLEASE NO LETTER-BOX, which gives us 10% wider screen but a loss of the whole movie. It destroys intimacy and clarity.
