Cast a Dark Shadow *** (1955, Dirk Bogarde, Margaret Lockwood, Kay Walsh) – Classic Movie Review 4984
Director Lewis Gilbert’s 1955 British thriller stars Dirk Bogarde, Margaret Lockwood, and Kay Walsh. With John Cresswell’s screenplay based on the play Murder Mistaken by Janet Green, this is a stagey and creaky but still […]
Caravaggio **** (1986, Nigel Terry, Sean Bean, Tilda Swinton, Nigel Davenport, Robbie Coltrane, Michael Gough, Garry Cooper, Dexter Fletcher) – Classic Movie Review 4988
Writer-director Derek Jarman’s 1986 fictionalised biographical drama Caravaggio stars Nigel Terry as the Italian painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, born 1573, who lies dying in 1610 and thinks back over his life, work and love […]
Jubilee **** (1978, Jenny Runacre, Nell Campbell, Toyah Willcox, Jordan, Ian Charleson, Karl Johnson, Adam Ant, Neil Kennedy, Jack Birkett, Jayne County, Richard O’Brien) – Classic Movie Review 4989
Co-writer/ director Derek Jarman’s amazing 1978 punk-rock anti-celebration of Queen Elizabeth II’s Jubilee is an original, outrageous, clever report of the state of the British nation in 1977. Jubilee was always a rousing, eye-opening movie, […]
The Offence **** (1972, Sean Connery, Trevor Howard, Ian Bannen, Vivien Merchant, Derek Newark) – Classic Movie Review 5010
Director Sidney Lumet’s 1972 British thriller is extremely powerful stuff with a riveting performance from Sean Connery, leaving James Bond behind as Detective Sergeant Johnson, a half-crazed cop who metes out violently rough treatment to […]
Undertow *** (1949, Scott Brady, John Russell, Dorothy Hart, Peggy Dow, Bruce Bennett, Rock Hudson) – Classic Movie Review 4962
William Castle’s 1949 B-movie gangland tale Undertow is good, sturdy film noir crime thriller starring Scott Brady, John Russell, Dorothy Hart and Peggy Dow. Rock Hudson has a small role as a detective. ‘Every bullet […]
Teenage Caveman * (1958, Robert Vaughn, Darah Marshall, Leslie Bradley, Frank DeKova) – Classic Movie Review 4954
A well-groomed young Robert Vaughn looks out of place as a Teenage Caveman in producer-director Roger Corman’s cheap-looking (on a $70,000 budget), quickly made (in two days apparently!) 1958 black-and-white science fiction/ horror/ adventure movie set in a […]
Throw Momma from the Train **** (1987, Danny DeVito, Billy Crystal, Anne Ramsey, Kim Greist, Kate Mulgrew, Annie Ross, Rob Reiner, Bruce Kirby) – Classic Movie Review 4935
Director/ star Danny DeVito’s gleefully entertaining 1987 directorial feature film debut is yet another raid on the work of Alfred Hitchcock. This time it is a bright and breezy black comedy about a student in […]
