Don Juan (1926)
A Fascinating Adventure
3 July 2006 - 2 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
Previous commenters have noted John Barrymore's great acting skills, and the abundance of beautiful women -- and the Costumes!! Stunning women's gowns for the many principals, surprisingly racy outfits for the various dancers and debauchees, and the fashions for the men were mostly kept within the same historical time period. All of this makes for a costuming fan's dream come true. Although I have one tiny gripe: if they were determined to put Barrymore in skintight hose and short jackets, they really should have given the man more, well, support. Rather distracting, esp. during the action sequences, and it made him look rather effete in the love scenes. A small quibble when the overall movie is so astonishing.
