Under the Volcano

...en så bra film...

...en enmansshow..en högst underhållande sådan.

...establishes Volcano as a place where comedy and tragedy intermingle freely and death takes on an almost physical presence.

...the drunkenness in this film is supplied by the remarkably controlled performance of Albert Finney as the consul. He gives the best drunk performance I've ever seen in a film.

The result is very much worth the wait, bringing to life the mysticism of Mexico with a superb script by Guy Gallo, exquisite photography, and the unparalleled performance by Finney.
