An archive of two chaps, a laptop and a mic attempting to unearth the lost, forgotten and overlooked in cinema.

Midnight Video 25: Dr Heckyl and Mr Hype, Casanova and Bluebeard

Midnight Video 25 reveals our amorous intents as Oliver Reed tries to lose his virginity, but not his mind in Dr Heckyl And Mr Hype.  Donald Sutherland powders his nose (cheeks, chin, neck, etc.) and adjusts his wig and codpiece in Fellini's Casanova before Richard Burton's lust for love and taste for uroxicide display themselves in the colourful Bluebeard.
