MOVIES BLUEBEARD
Quick
Rating: ** There's a murderer loose in Paris. And for some reason he's called Bluebeard. That's never really explained. Anyway, there's this girl, and she falls in love with a puppeteer (Carradine) after his marionnette show. He then kills his partner so that this girl can make costumes for his puppets (or something like that). Not much else happens. There's a couple of stranglings, and a mysterious painting. Oh, and the cops are trying to hunt down Bluebeard. Nothing overly exciting. And in the all-too-predictable ending, Bluebeard gets what he deserves. Carradine gives a good performance, and really looks the part. The sets and the atmosphere are pretty good in this film. Otherwise, the plot moves slowly, and isn't all that interesting. Quality:
