Viva Zapata! **** (1952, Marlon Brando, Jean Peters, Anthony Quinn) – Classic Movie Review 2382
Buried under a big moustache and a big hat, Marlon Brando may be very oddly, indeed uncomfortably, cast as the Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata in director Elia Kazan’s 1952 historical drama biopic. But nevertheless Brando […]
Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves *** (1991, Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Alan Rickman, Christian Slater) – Classic Movie Review 1793
Kevin Reynolds directs this ambitious, enormously popular, big-budget 1991 Robin Hood movie plainly, unimaginatively and hesitantly, struggling to get the pace and mood right. A hefty re-edit, with about 20 minutes shorn from the 143-minute running […]
Robin Hood ***** (1922, Douglas Fairbanks Sr, Enid Bennett, Wallace Beery, Alan Hale Sr) – Classic Movie Review 1792
Douglas Fairbanks Sr stars in one of his most famous and iconic roles as the king’s favoured knight The Earl of Huntingdon, who becomes the outlaw Robin Hood to protect the oppressed English people from the […]
Salvatore Giuliano ***** (1961, Salvo Randone, Frank Wolff) – Classic Movie Review 1705
Co-writer/director Francesco Rosi’s astonishing, eye-opening 1961 Italian classic provides a dark and complex portrait of Sicilian politics after World War Two, centring round its starting point in 1950 when the famous Sicilian 28-year-old guerrilla leader and outlaw […]
The Quick and the Dead *** (1995, Sharon Stone, Gene Hackman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe) – Classic Film Review 1223
Director Sam Raimi’s entertaining, if patchy, very violent 1995 black-comedy Western spoofs the style and themes of Sergio Leone’s spaghetti Westerns. It stars Sharon Stone as you never saw her before as Ellen, a leather-clad […]
Ned Kelly *** (2003, Heath Ledger, Orlando Bloom, Geoffrey Rush, , Naomi Watts, Rachel Griffiths, Joel Edgerton) – Classic Movie Review 1072
Director Gregor Jordan’s 2003 remake of Tony Richardson’s 1970 film Ned Kelly with a bizarrely miscast Mick Jagger this time stars Heath Ledger, Orlando Bloom and Geoffrey Rush and is in the interesting category. It […]
Hombre **** (1967, Paul Newman, Fredric March, Richard Boone, Diane Cilento, Barbara Rush, Frank Silvera, Martin Balsam, Cameron Mitchell) – Classic Movie Review 860
Director Martin Ritt’s 1967 Western is a tense, intelligent, suspenseful movie, only maybe a little bit too obviously message-strewn for its own good. It reunites the star, the director, the writers and cinematographer of the 1963 triumph […]
