Rabbit, Run ** (1970, James Caan, Anjanette Comer, Carrie Snodgress, Arthur Hill, Jack Albertson, Melodie Johnson, Henry Jones) – Classic Movie Review 8,729
John Updike’s tremendous 1960 novel translates poorly to the screen in Jack Smight’s often intriguing, but ultimately unexciting 1970 movie Rabbit, Run. James Caan stars as ‘Rabbit’ Angstrom. American author John Updike’s tremendous 1960 novel […]
That Lucky Touch ** (1975, Roger Moore, Susannah York, Shelley Winters, Lee J Cobb, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Raf Vallone, Sydne Rome, Donald Sinden) – Classic Movie Review 8566
Director Christopher Miles’s modestly engaging, lightweight 1975 romantic comedy That Lucky Touch stars Roger Moore as European arms dealer Michael Scott, who is courted by liberated lefty journalist Julia Richardson (Susannah York), who wants a […]
Laughter in the Dark *** (1969, Nicol Williamson, Anna Karina, Jean-Claude Drouot) – Classic Movie Review 8558

Nearly a Nasty Accident ** (1961, Jimmy Edwards, Kenneth Connor, Shirley Eaton, Richard Wattis, Ronnie Stevens, Jon Pertwee, Eric Barker, Peter Jones, Jack Watling, Joyce Carey, Terry Scott) – Classic Movie Review 8343
Director Don Chaffey’s 1961 Nearly a Nasty Accident is a welcome if routine and very mild British comedy, based on a play called Touch Wood by David Carr, about a meek-mannered National Serviceman aircraft mechanic (Kenneth […]
Stranger Than Paradise *** (1984, John Lurie, Eszter Balint, Richard Edson) – Classic Movie Review 8250
Writer-director Jim Jarmusch’s 1984 black and white road-movie comedy drama Stranger than Paradise is aimless yet charming. It turns a lazily hipster eye on two New York deadbeats Willie and Eddie (played by John Lurie […]
Man in the Moon ** (1960, Kenneth More, Shirley Anne Field, Michael Hordern, Norman Bird) – Classic Movie Review 8161
Director Basil Dearden’s silly 1960 British black and white satirical comedy Man in the Moon tackles the then topical subject of sending the first astronaut into space. It is occasionally amusing, but mostly it is […]
