1.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre 1950s Spanish Film, June 24, 2008

By 

Kardius (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Faustina (DVD)

This late 1950s Spanish film is a retelling of the Faust tale. This time, a devil with Jewish imagery (Fernando Fernan Gomez) makes a pact with an old lady who is rejuvenated in the form of Mexican film star Maria Felix (whose voice is dubbed by a Spanish actress, except when she sings a bolero by Agustin Lara). Maria Felix is very over-the-top in this film, the direction is undistinguished, and the production values are on the mediocre side (like in many 1950s Spanish commercial films). Worst of all, its boring. This is for diehard fans only and the Vanguard DVD of an old Spanish film is of characteristically poor quality.

3.0 out of 5 stars mistaken identity, October 22, 2006

By 

Joseph S. Addario "movie fanatic" (Claremont, NH USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Faustina (DVD)

This version (1956) with Maria Felix is in Spanish and is not the version of "Customers who bought this item also bought Therese (1986) . . ." which is the Polish film, Faustina (1994), the story of a nun.
