Metroland *** (1997, Christian Bale, Emily Watson) – Classic Movie Review 1567
Director Philip Savile’s 1997 British drama is a really conscientious and interesting version of the weird Julian Barnes novel, set in the 1970s. Christian Bale is excellent as Chris, a married Englishman who must choose […]

The Portrait of a Lady **** (1996, Nicole Kidman, John Malkovich) – Classic Movie Review 1264
Director Jane Campion’s 1996 period drama literary adaptation is a chilly but excellent version of the Henry James novel, set in 1870s England. Everything about it is extremely plush, subtle, expert and just right. Nicole […]
Reign of Fire (2002, Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey) – Classic Film Review 1201
Director Rob Bowman’s fun but flawed 2002 post-apocalyptic action fantasy film stars Christian Bale as the leader of a motley band of survivors living in a castle in Northumberland, England, in the year 2020 who attempt […]
