Pandora and the Flying Dutchman

The second half doesn't come close to living up to the first but that first half is so rapturous and weird, I can forgive

The technicolor is fucking BLAZING here, Jack Cardiff really knew what's up

Also: Ava Gardner for the love of god

Going to show this to everyone who insists that it’s not an epic love story without a happy ending.

Ava Gardner! The race car sequence! Wholly unlike anything else I’ve see from this era. Simultaneously feels so of and ahead of its time.
