The Parallax View ***** (1974, Warren Beatty, Paula Prentiss, William Daniels, Hume Cronyn, Walter McGinn, Anthony Zerbe, Kenneth Mars) – Classic Movie Review 1152
Alan J Pakula’s 1974 political paranoia conspiracy thriller film is brilliantly tense, taut and exciting. It’s a scorching nail-biter of a movie. Warren Beatty stars as ambitious reporter Joseph Frady, who investigates a presidential candidate’s […]
Dave *** (1993, Kevin Kline, Sigourney Weaver, Frank Langella, Ben Kingsley) – Classic Movie Review 946
The 1989 Oscar-winner for A Fish Called Wanda, Kevin Kline uses all his nimble comedy skills and appears to be thoroughly enjoying himself in every actor’s dream of twin roles. He stars as Dave Kovic, a sweet-natured […]

This dazzling, brilliant Sixties conspiracy political thriller from 1962 is cleverly adapted by George Axelrod from Richard Condon’s famous novel. The Manchurian Candidate won no Oscars but it’s now legendary, thanks to its ingenious plot […]
The Lady Vanishes ***** (1938, Margaret Lockwood, Michael Redgrave, Paul Lukas, Dame May Whitty, Basil Radford, Naunton Wayne, Cecil Parker, Linden Travers, Catherine Lacey, Googie Withers, Mary Clare) – Classic Movie Review 118
Fighting off strong competition from The 39 Steps, the 1938 treasure The Lady Vanishes is (arguably) by a narrow margin Alfred Hitchcock’s best British movie before he left for America to make Rebecca in 1940 […]
Welcome to the Punch ** (2013, James McAvoy, Mark Strong, Andrea Riseborough, David Morrissey, Peter Mullen) – Movie Review
I’m sorry to be very hard on this slick, fast-moving and atmospheric London-set crime thriller, but, though it’s sometimes exciting, it really doesn’t offer many surprises or real thrills and the story is so complicated […]
