La petite Aurore l'enfant martyre (1952)

How Can We Possibly Be More Cruel ?

[29 May 2005]

I often read that this movie was among the worst movies of all-time but I do not agree.

Sure, this movie isn't among the greatest movies and the actors aren't too good sometimes but when we consider the story and the movies that were done in Quebec at that time, we realize that isn't as bad as everybody says.

This movie still changed history.

Lucie Mitchell, Paul Desmarteaux and Yvonne Laflamme are excellent.

Desmarteaux had been one of the straight men on stage of Oliver Guimond Sr.

This movie is one of the first, if not the very first, movie he did.

The career of Lucie Mitchell took a blow.

No, not because the public didn't like the movie, on the contrary, but because she was despised by everybody because of that role that people took too seriously.

For Yvonne Laflamme, this role was the greatest of her short career.

For this movie, the sound is very poor.

The quality of the image, much like "Séraphin" (1950), isn't really clean.

But this movie will forever be remembered in the people's mind as one of the greatest movies of that time because it tells a true story. A true story that haunted the Quebec in a way.

This movie wasn't terrible, but the true story behind it was.

She hit her with sticks, made her drink washing water, made her eat soap, burned her hair, head and hands, pushed her down a stairway and the list goes on ! If you are not sensible to that true story, then you got a heart of stone.

The Freddie Mercury Tribute: Concert for AIDS Awareness (1992 TV Special)

VHS Version Is Better Than The DVD Version

[29 September 2004]

They Were There In 1971 And They Are Here In 2004.

Though One Thing's Different : Freddie Mercury Has Gone To Heaven.

Brian Has Still His Red Special Guitar Built In 1964 With His Father Harold And Roger Has Still His Sets Of Drums He Used In Queen But John Deacon Doesn't Want To Be Part Of It Anymore. Queen Died With Freddie He Said. Freddie Would Have Liked Queen To Go On. I Don't Think That's The Main Reason Why John's Last Real Concert Was On April 20, 1992 In Wembley. Queen's Musical Directions ? Performing With 5ive, Wyclef Jean Or Anastacia Maybe ? Anyway...They Were All There In April 1992...Even The King Himself : Freddie Mercury.

Making A Brief Appearance On Screen, I'm Pretty Sure Freddie Watched The Show From Above. George Michael Performing "Somebody To Love", Paul Young Performing Roger's "Radio Ga Ga" Or His Favorite Performer, Liza Minelli, Performing His Own Anthem, "We Are The Champions", I'm Pretty Sure He Was Applauding.

The VHS Version Has The Entire Concert While The DVD Version Has Only The 2nd Part. Buy The VHS Version For A Complete Concert Or The DVD Version For A Better Sound.
