Negative Positive
Title: A Wild Comedy
Review: I was taken by suprise by this while I was watching television. I immediately ran out and picked it up for myself. First off I want to make it clear that although there is some violence toward women in this Wertmuller is NOT a hater of women. The violence is to show how weak the male characters are to the strength of the women oin the story(THe very end makes that clear). In every film I have seen by Lina Wertmuller the women always come out ahead in the sticky rocky ride of modern Italian relationships.I was floored at this films mix of politics and comedy which is a mix Wertmuller was never afraid to use as often in her career as Hitchcock used "the common man accused of a crime and catching the killer to prove himself innocent".The performances are amazing and this film ranks amnong the best in the directors career. Highly recommended even if the quality of the dvd is a little off par.
Is the review positive or negative?
