Hmmm. Mixed feelings about this one.
The good. A beautiful to look at period film with fantastic clothes and costumes. Totally captivating in the middle when Ryno de Marigny tells the tale of his decade long affair with Vellini to the Comtesse d'Artelles.
The bad. So over-the-top it becomes laughable. More blood than a slasher flick. Needlessly more and more sexually explicit. A fizzle of an ending that takes eternity to reach. |
