Paris Calling (1941)
3/10
Wasted talent
11 July 2019
There are many familiar faces here. Gino Coraddo once again plays a waiter. Eduardo Ciannelli gets to play a good guy for a change. Elisabeth Bergner in the lead is devoid of any personality. On the other hand, Gale Sondergaard is wasted; she has almost nothing to do. It would have been interesting if their parts had been swapped. Basil Rathbone is fine, but Randolph Scott is a bit too--and too constantly--flippant as an American pilot. Some of the scenes are a bit jumpy, whether due to bad direction and/or bad editing.
