Blooming from early spring until late autumn, this spectacular petunia will literally flower its heart out in pots, baskets and mixed containers. It is as funny a film as I have seen in a fair while, but also oddly sad and touching, particularly in the echoing thoughtfulness, when the screen has gone dark and the house lights have come up.Īh, yes, a circus had been playing in the town. You're sure to fall head over heels in love with our new Petunia Amore 'King of Hearts' Each bloom boasts a central white star surrounded by five bold red love hearts. Its medium texture blends into the garden, but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition. Amore King of Hearts is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor containers and hanging baskets. And the joy of Micheline Presle and the other inmates is that they know that they are not mad. Amore King of Hearts is a dense herbaceous annual with a mounded form. Bates is marvelous as the baffled but never disbelieving foot soldier who is the link between the worlds of sanity and madness, whichever is which. With a bow of the screenplay by Daniel Boulanger, it is a director’s film, with a consistency of style and tone which is satisfying to see.

George Delerue’s music is remarkably vivid and appropriate, and in this instance that is no mean feat. “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. the applications are astonishingly inventive. It is all, of course, a special view of madness as it is of sanity, a view of both from the bridge of an antic imagination which at last perceives perhaps only the relativity of each.
