Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Michael_Elliott Le concert de M. et Mme. Kabal (1963) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Entertaining, if rather minor, animated short from Walerian Borowczyk has Mr. Kabal trying to put on a piano show but his incredibly ugly and ultimately bizarre wife keeps messing everything up. Plot-wise there's really not too much going on here but if you're a fan of the director's rather bizarre shorts then you'll at least want to check this out. I thought the animation itself was rather good and there's no doubt that the director was able to bring a rather strange atmosphere to the picture. The wife character was certainly very memorable and you can just imagine how bitchy she is and you're certainly thankfully that you're not tied to her.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Le concert de M. et Mme. Kabal" or "The Concert of Mr. and Mrs. Kabal" is a 6.5-minute animated short film from 1962, so this one is already 55 years old almost. It's one of the many award-winning works by Polish filmmaker Walerian Borowczyk and I must say I am a bit shocked that this one here is not even a work from his early career. He was already pretty prolific and experienced when this one came out. It's another example of how disappointing the 1960s were in terms of (animated) short films after the Golden Age of Animation in the previous decades. Here we have a married couple giving a concert, the title already tells you. The music is also okay to listen to, but you can also just listen to a record for that. Animation and story were really weak. I don't recommend the watch. Thumbs down.
