Review of The Red House

The Red House (1947)
7/10
more addendum on what has been said
20 September 2002
All the previous comments echo mine/ The print I have is one of the first I purchased way back when films first came available on tape. At the conclusion there is an interesting commentary on this New hobby of collecting films, They even give a phone number to call on collecting films, I will call tomorrow & see if the number is still in use. This film is part of the FILM CLASSIC series, & many of the prints are not as good as the current films; but THE RED HOUSE print is reasonably clean. The music by Miklos Roxsa (spelled wrong) is superb

& fits each scene perfectly. I wish I could say that about current music scores. The hero Lon Macallister, while never being the best actor comes accross very well. the main reason he did not make may more films was his very receding hairline which is quite noticeable.

Rating ***/4 82 points/100 IMBd 7
