Night Magic (1985)
8/10
Would greatly benefit from a proper DVD reissue
30 December 2019
Lewis Furey's Night Magic was ahead of its time and might be more in fashion and appealing for today's audience. The story co-written by Leonard Cohen and Furey is a kind of dreamy fairy tale for teenagers and adults, dealing with excessive artistic ambition, love and angelic creatures. The music is excellent throughout but sounds muffled in the movie mix because of technical and budget limitations. Carole Laure especially never looked and sang more beautifully. All in all Night Magic would greatly benefit from a proper DVD release with a remastered sound in stereo, completed with some bonus.
