White Nights *** (1985, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Gregory Hines, Jerzy Skolimowski, Helen Mirren, Geraldine Page, Isabella Rossellini) – Classic Movie Review 10,750
Director Taylor Hackford’s 1985 movie White Nights is a daft but entertaining chase-dance drama, a peculiar hybrid of musical and thriller, giving good chances to players difficult to cast. Mikhail Baryshnikov charismatically plays a Russian […]

Director Grigoriy Kozintsev’s 1970 Russian film King Lear [Korol Lir] stars Jüri Järvet as a modest, one-note (bad-tempered) Lear leading a number of unstriking performances in this disappointment from the director of the great Russian […]
The Promise ** (1969, John Castle, Ian McKellen, Susan Macready) – Classic Movie Review 10,034

Hamlet ***** (1964, Innokenti Smoktunovsky, Mikhail Nazvanov, Elza Radzina) – Classic Movie Review 9602
Director Grigori Kozintsev’s 1964 world cinema masterpiece Hamlet is quite unlike any other version with a very cinematic vision shown by director Kozintsev, especially in his dramatic depiction of the towering castle of Elsinore and […]
Romance of a Horsethief [Romansa konjokradice] ** (1971, Yul Brynner, Eli Wallach, Jane Birkin) – Classic Movie Review 9475
Director Abraham Polonsky’s 1971 adventure Romance of a Horsethief [Romansa konjokradice] [Le Roman d’un Voleur de Chevaux] is a little-seen, virtually ignored box-office flop. Based on a story by Joseph Opatoshu, it is a Jewish […]
