 | Suddenly Last Summer [Read More ...]
Description: This black-and-white film adaptation of Tennessee Williams's Southern gothic play is perhaps more famous for the rumored off-screen shenanigans of its stars than for its over-the-top repressed sexuality (only Williams could pull off that paradox, and pull it off he does). Suppose... |
 | Madwoman of Chaillot [Read More ...]
Parable about a woman who refuses to believe the world is no longer beautiful. |
 | Summertime [Read More ...]
Description: There was a time before Lawrence of Arabia and Doctor Zhivago when David Lean made smaller, more effortlessly picturesque movies, and this splendid Venetian travelogue and love story is one of them--the last, actually, before the epic onslaught started with the Oscar-winning The ... |

Review: A MEDIEVAL VERSION OF "WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF?"...:This is an interesting take on the relationship of King Henry II of England and his wife and Queen, Eleanor of Aquitaine. Based upon a stage play by James Goldman, who also wrote the screenplay for the film and won an Osc... |

 | The Iron Petticoat [Read More ...]
Review: Katharine Hepburn and Bob Hope together in a movie that is just not funny:When Katharine Hepburn died I started watching all of her movies, one a day, in chronological order. By the time I got to "The Iron Petticoat," a 1956 comedy, Bob Hope had also died, having reached his 100t... |
![]() | Rooster Cogburn [Read More ...]
Review: Rooster Cogburn :Rooster Cogburn is a sequal to True Grit and in my opinion is the better of the two movies. One of the reasons is Kate Hepburn. This is a highly entertaining western where John Wayne and Ms Hepburn team up to capture the killers of Hepburn's father who have sto... |
 | Bringing Up Baby [Read More ...]
Description: "The love impulse in man," says a psychiatrist in Bringing Up Baby, "frequently reveals itself in terms of conflict." That's for sure. For a primer on the rules and regulations of the classic screwball comedy, which throws love and conflict into close proximity, look no further. ... |
 | Love Affair [Read More ...]
Description: You can hear the big gears clank in this glossy, oh-so-watchable remake of the classic 1939 film (and the popular An Affair to Remember). Instead of updating the story with contemporary attitudes (as Warren Beatty did so successfully with Heaven Can Wait), this is a virtual c... |
