   Jul 19, 2018 · Pierre Lhomme’s cinematography is stunning throughout and the colours in this 4K restoration truly zing. On its initial release in France, King of Hearts under-performed at the box office. It fared better across the Atlantic, where it slowly gained cult-film status. By the mid 1970s, the movie was showing in picture houses across America.

   Is King of Hearts a good movie?

   • “King of Hearts” has the unrelenting visual excitement of a great silent film, but with incisive dialogue that might have arisen on some middle ground between Swift and Lewis Carroll. George Delerue’s music is remarkably vivid and appropriate, and in this instance that is no mean feat.
