Black Widow

In the first few minutes, it is absolutely irresistible with its winking at the audience and playing with the genre. However, after the murder, the musical becomes nothing more than a stretched, though diligent, stylization. (19.06.2007)

Given its format and chosen style, it is a typical television production that wouldn't work on the big screen, but in terms of content, it is a brilliant game with the noir genre and ultimately with jazz, which at the time of its creation was purely consumable music intended to entertain guests in brothels... The suitably chosen duration condenses the story, and the music complements the dramatic aspects excellently. Overall impression: 90%. (13.12.2008)
