	World Cinema: Films -- Judex (1963)
		Yet in Franju's hands the material has its own kind of magic and wonder (as well as deadpan humour), and this is one of the better features of his middle period, which also yielded Les yeux sans visage (aka The Horror Chamber of Dr. Faustus).
		Judex (Channing Pollock) is a cloaked hero-avenger who abducts the villainous banker Favraux in order to prevent the evil Diana (Francine Bergé in fl tights) from stealing a fortune from the banker's virtuous daughter (Edith Scob).
		Some of what Franju finds here is worthy of Cocteau, and as he found when he attempted another pastiche of Feuillade's work in colour, fl and white is essential to the poetic ambience.

	"Roads of Destiny"
		Founded on the stage play made by Channing Pollock from O. Henry's story, the screen version seems old-fashioned in form and contrary to the spirit of modern film material.
		Pauline Frederick, as the betrayed woman who cannot escape her destiny, goes a long way toward making the story acceptable, even when it is found impossible to agree with the O. Henry belief in fatalism and the damnable theory it implies.
		The success of the multi-story photoplay has never been marked, though this elaboration of the O. Henry story which Channing Pollock adapted to the stage, is unusually well presented.

	Review - Channing Pollock at The Magic Circle 2000
		Born in 1926, it was on seeing a demonstration of a svengali deck 21 years later that Channing thought to himself "there was something here" and decided to delve deeper into the world of magic.
		Neil Foster, famed for his presentation of the zombie ball, was his instructor and we were shown a rare clip of Channing performing the zombie ball.
		Nightclub engagements started to happen and when asked how he developed his stage image said "fear made me look sophisticated!" (Take note those who over-theorize!) "I like what I saw kid - you got the Sullivan Show" agent Mark Leddy told Channing after making a long journey to see him.

	Buried Treasure: Feuillade and Franju on DVD
		Franju also sought, despite the playfulness, to avoid any camp satire of these elements by over-emphasis or any special attention being paid to them.
		In the title role, Franju pulled off his most brilliant coup by casting the master prestidigator of his day, near godlike in his handsomeness, Channing Pollock.
		Pollock's skills as a magician were employed to produce a dazzling array of apparent magical occurrences involving, most particularly, disappearing doves, a plot device that Feuillade uses to enable the regular rescue of the heroine and others by Judex.
