Babylon (2022) ***

Watching this film makes one realize, once again, what a great masterpiece of Hollywood cinema is "Singin' In The Rain" (1952). As for "Babylon", it's an uneven effort, occasionally brilliant, but way too long and way "too much", especially when elephants, rattlesnakes and alligators show up. Brad Pitt plays a character based on John Gilbert, while Olivia Hamilton gets Dorothy Arzner and Margot Robbie has a lot of fun with Clara Bow.
