Director John Huston’s worthy but miscalculated 1966 Old Testament epic boasts a spectacular production and beautiful widescreen images, courtesy ace cinematographer Giuseppe Rotunno. But, alas, it is dragged down by an uninspiring screenplay (even though playwright […]

Director Anthony Harvey’s superb, stirring, sterling triple-Oscar-winning 1968 classic costume period drama is the cat-fighting story of duelling divas at Christmas at the English court. It won Oscars for Best Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay and […]
Casino Royale *** (1967, David Niven, Peter Sellers, Woody Allen, Orson Welles, Ursula Andress, John Huston, William Holden, Deborah Kerr) – Classic Movie Review 839
