Lisbon (1956 Ray Milland & prod)

Ray Milland, Claude Rains being nasty, Maureen O'Hara, Yvonne Furneaux

Music Nelson Riddle, ph. Jack Marta

Film Four cropped the 'Naturama' 2.35:1 print to 16x9, exposing the awfulness of the Trucolor print. It's mainly shot on location in Lisbon, and is a sort of Casablanca, not too bad. Milland is charismatic; we see how nasty Rains is when he kills some birds with a tennis racket! Marta has 221 credits and they're all B movies (even Duel).

Republic.
