“Bolero” Review

Bolero: Directed by John Derek. With Bo Derek, George Kennedy, Andrea Occhipinti, Ana Obregón. Set in the 1920s, a young woman sets out to lose her virginity. Her mission leads her to a Moroccan sheikh and a Spanish bullfighter.

I watched a documentary (or two!) about the Cannon Group and this movie came up as something that should have worked well for them financially but didn’t end up doing as well as they had hoped. My interest was peaked because I’m familiar with Bo Derek’s work from this time period and knew that she was both a great actor and was perfectly fine with being naked on screen. Bolero offers plenty of nudity, some of it titillating and some of it just casual male gaze fare, but the story itself is whimsical, if not entirely nonsensical. It was an enjoyable experience but I can see why it didn’t have wider appeal.

“Boulevard” Review

Boulevard: Directed by Dito Montiel. With Robin Williams, Kathy Baker, Roberto Aguire, Giles Matthey. A devoted husband in a marriage of convenience is forced to confront his secret life.

One of Robin’s last films and it’s one of his most emotionally charged and interesting films in a career of emotionally charged and interesting movies. I have a couple quibbles about extremely minor things, like how the husband makes the terrible choice to start to trust his new friend in ways that I wouldn’t trust my best friends, but considering the emotional situation he was in, it does make a twisted sort of sense.

This is the final film in my Robin Williams watch and it’s a great one to go out on. I’ve now officially watched every film of his that’s been publicly released, I’m sure there’s plenty of TV or comedy specials that I haven’t seen, but I’ll catch those as they float up into the zeitgeist.
