Review of Rapture

Rapture (1965)
9/10
A romantic film to be seen
23 January 2006
Magnificent performance by Patricia Gozzi, with the help of Dean Stockwell and Melvyn Douglas. Brilliant directing by John, Guillermin who admits that he never had to direct a more gifted actress (John Guillermin is also responsible for the discovery of Jessica Lange, introduced in King Kong) The film suffered of a black & white (inspired ) cinematography (by French cameraman Marcel Grigon) at a time when distributors would not accept to release a film other than in color,to fight the TV competition (1965).

Patricia Gozzi is also great in GRABUGE another ill-starred production of Darry F.Zanuck that was a harbinger to the 68 riot in Paris.
