Lady in the Lake

Je vais souvent tard le soir au cinéma Action Christine . Je ne sais pas ce  que  je ferais sans ce cinéma qui passe des vieux films.
 Récement j'ai vu "Lady in the Lake" que je n'ai pas trop aimé .Au début c'était intéressant de ne pas voir le détective , juste entendre sa voix  . Les autres personnages regardaient vers la caméra qui était censée être le détective. Mais  après quelques minutes ça devenait lourd . 
"Lady in the Lake is a 1947 American noir film that marked the directorial debut of actor Robert Montgomery who also starred in the film. Based on the 1944 Raymond Chandler novel The Lady in the Lake. 
The storyline revolved around a conventional murder mystery similar to many others of the period, however it was notable for the perspective presented to the viewer. The entire film was seen from the viewpoint of the central character, the detective Philip Marlowe, played by Montgomery. The gimmick was that the audience would see only what the character saw, and MGM in its promotion of the film claimed that it was the first of its kind and the most revolutionary style of film since the introduction of the talkies. The movie was also rare for having virtually no musical soundtrack.
The New York Times film critic wrote, 'In making the camera an active participant, rather than an off-side reporter, Mr. Montgomery has, however, failed to exploit the full possibilities suggested by this unusual technique. For after a few minutes of seeing a hand reaching toward a door knob, or lighting a cigarette or lifting a glass, or a door moving toward you as though it might come right out of the screen the novelty begins to wear thin.'
