...before him. "I invade privacy," says Koerner, "the most highly secret, sacred privacy." The green hair and the purple patches of flesh are in fact a legacy of the mpressionists -"the idea of green foliage, blue sky, warmth of flesh, all playing, interchanging with each other." For the dominant color of the painting as a whole, Koerner searches for clues in the subject's own character...
Technically, the film is respectable. The street and harbor scenes in the crown colony bustle with color, the interiors are ingratiatingly ratty. Literarily, the picture is a mad chow mein of Chinese-laundry English, doused with a sickly marmalade of sentiment and soy-sauced now and then by a daffy line (prostitute announcing her baby's name: "Weenston.

Few men have ever captured so luminously the restless wave, the fleeting cloud, a gathering mist or a fading twilight...
