Day 25 South Pacific: The 1932 movie Bird of Paradise was based on a 1912 play that toured the US for over a decade. It’s hokum—this is where the trope of throwing virgins into volcanoes originated—but it’s enjoyable hokum.

Day 23 South America: Black Orpheus (1959) recasts the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, setting it in Rio de Janeiro. The movie’s soundtrack, which featured music by Luiz Bonfá and Antônio Carlos Jobim, sparked an international craze for bossa nova.

Day 16 Italy (2): In Italy in the early 1970s there was a boom in movies based on Boccaccio’s work and life. The best is Pasolini’s Decameron, which is set in the same Medieval era the stories were written in. Ribald or raunchy? It’s a bit of both.

Day 4 Australia (1): Malcolm (1986) is about a socially awkward inventor who is convinced by a crook to use his machines to commit crimes. Set in Melbourne, this low-key heist film features some amazing mechanical devices.

Day 3 Arctic. I’m going for The Thing From Another Planet. Made in 1951, and set in a research station at the North Pole, the movie tells the story of a plant-based alien that is described as an ‘intellectual carrot.”

Day 1: Favorite Tarzan Adaptation : I could be a wisenheimer and say the silent Tarzan of the Apes (1918) with Elmo Lincoln. But I have to go with Johnny Weissmuller in Tarzan the Ape Man (1932) primarily because of the yell.

Pour le d'aout
niveau 2 (Allemagne) : Le Tambour (1979) de Volker Schlöndorff. Ça faisait longtemps que je voulais découvrir ce film avec ce gamin que j'avais découvert dans Canicule d'Yves Boisset. Aucune déception, j'en ai pris plein les yeux!
