The Changeling **** (1980, George C Scott, Trish Van Devere, Melvyn Douglas) – Classic Movie Review 7978
Director Peter Medak’s 1980 Canadian film The Changeling is a truly creepy, scary and effective spook-house horror movie. George C Scott is excellent as the widowed musician / composer Professor John Russell, who moves from […]
Dad **** (1989, Jack Lemmon, Ted Danson, Olympia Dukakis, Kathy Baker, Kevin Spacey, Ethan Hawke, Zakes Mokae, JT Walsh) – Classic Movie Review 7046
Writer-producer-director Gary David Goldberg’s sweet but, happily, not too sickly 1989 comedy drama Dad is taken from the novel by William Wharton and stars the splendid team of Jack Lemmon, Ted Danson, Olympia Dukakis, Kathy […]

Wall of Noise *** (1963, Suzanne Pleshette, Ty Hardin, Dorothy Provine, Ralph Meeker, Simon Oakland) – Classic Movie Review 6243
Director Richard Wilson’s capable and underrated 1963 drama is a standard marital soap opera with a seemingly arbitrary horse-racing background tacked on just for colour. But that turns out to be a good thing. Colour […]
The Merchant of Four Seasons [Händler der vier Jahreszeiten] **** (1972, Hans Hirschmüller, Irm Hermann, Hanna Schygulla) – Classic Movie Review 6192
Writer-director Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s 1971 German film is his earliest success and arguably first masterwork. Hard work but rewarding, it is a credibly written and performed assault on middle-class values, with the director’s typical mix […]
