a short art house movie and beautifully photograph and edit and with dark stage like set and leaping and leer effete young men wear eye makeup and jeering townsfolk and biblical intertitles and and jar modernistic music . the decadence of the city seem to reside in it airborne or writhe gay dancer and and in the opposition to lot and his visitor the angel . a problem arise with lot represent he be the only old person in sodom and apparently and and he look a lot like an anti semitic caricature of an old jew and both in costume and makeuphe get a great hooked nose and deepset eyesand gesture . lot wife be neither ancient nor stereotyped and nor be his daughter especially notable except for a tranquil beauty . some cinematic effect workthe montage be both visually attractive and symbolic and and the fiery rain be okay and tooand others do not ( a jag white lightning streak down the centre of the screen during the opening be headache make ) . the story end with the transformation of lot wife into a pillar of saltlot be nowhere to be see . the movie be more like a ballet than a story and interesting and sometimes beautiful but quite uneven .
