Deadly Advice ** (1994, Jane Horrocks, Brenda Fricker, Imelda Staunton, Jonathan Pryce) – Classic Movie Review 3959
Director Mandie Fletcher’s 1994 British black comedy is a sometimes funny but often uneasy experience, though it comes through with an excellent cast on good form. Jane Horrocks and Imelda Staunton give expert and amusingly oddball […]
A Midsummer Night’s Sex Comedy **** (1982, Woody Allen, Mia Farrow, José Ferrer, Julie Hagerty, Tony Roberts, Mary Steenburgen) – Classic Movie Review 3957
The light comedy of manners A Midsummer Night’s Sex Comedy finds writer-director Woody Allen in playful, lyrical mood in 1982, toasting one of his inspirations, Ingmar Bergman, and especially his film Smiles of a Summer Night (1955), […]
The 3 Worlds of Gulliver *** (1960, Kerwin Mathews, Jo Morrow, June Thorburn) – Classic Movie Review 3721
Kerwin Mathews makes a dashing, handsome but rather bland hero as Lemuel Gulliver in co-writer/director Jack Sher’s swift 1960 run-through of Jonathan Swift’s 1726 satirical novel Gulliver’s Travels, with the emphasis on the familiar Brobdingnagian […]

The Unearthly * (1957, John Carradine, Allison Hayes, Myron Healey, Sally Todd, Marilyn Buferd, Tor Johnson) – Classic Movie Review 3660
John Carradine is typecast yet again in one of his long gallery of mad doctor scientists in director Brooke L Peters [aka Boris Petroff]’s plodding and very silly 1957 Sci-Fi chiller. It says much that […]
No Way Out **** (1950, Richard Widmark, Sidney Poitier, Linda Darnell, Stephen McNally, Harry Bellaver) – Classic Movie Review 3604
Co-writer/director Joseph L Mankiewicz’s 1950 pioneering hospital-bound race-issue film-noir melodrama No Way Out is commendably intense and powerful. Sidney Poitier stars as Dr Luther Brooks, a young black doctor whose white patient dies; a race […]
The Skin I Live In [La piel que habito] *** (2011, Antonio Banderas, Elena Anaya, Jan Cornet) – Classic Movie Review 3575
Writer-director Pedro Almodóvar’s intriguing but odd and alienating 2011 thriller is his 18th film, in a brilliant career that runs all the way back to Pepi, Luci, Bom in 1980. In his first collaboration with Almodóvar in […]
