174: George Roy Hills SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE (1972), baserad på Vonneguts roman, är minst sagt en strange cookie. Många enskilda delar (Tralfalmadore!) är helt fantastiska men WW2-segmenten känns bleka och Michael Sacks tolkning av Billy Pilgrim lämnar en del att önska. ★★★

Even as a girl, St Brigid of Kildare was so holy that she would vomit, when the druid, who owned her in some versions of her 'Lives', tried to feed her! He with his pagan beliefs was impure! A white cow with red ears appeared to sustain her instead! 🎨Kaye Maahs
