Passion Fish **** (1992, Mary McDonnell, Alfre Woodard, Angela Bassett) – Classic Movie Review 6371
John Sayles won the first of his two Oscar nominations for Best Screenplay so far for Passion Fish (1992) and Lone Star (1996), though arguably Matewan (1987) is still probably Sayles’s best film to date and Piranha (story and screenplay) might be his […]

Texas Across the River ** (1966, Dean Martin, Alain Delon, Joey Bishop, Rosemary Forsyth, Tina Aumont, Peter Graves, Andrew Prine, Michael Ansara) – Classic Movie Review 4779
The 1966 comedy Western film Texas Across the River is a passable old-style entertainment, starring Dean Martin, Alain Delon, Rosemary Forsyth and Joey Bishop. Director Michael Gordon’s 1966 tongue-in-cheek Technicolor and Techniscope American comedy Western film Texas Across the River is […]
