James Mason is outstanding as successful novelist Trigorin in director Sidney Lumet’s fine, faithful, though long and gloomy 1968 film version of the Anton Chekhov classic play The Sea Gull. With this cast and crew […]
Dr Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs [Le spie vengono dal semifreddo] * (1966, Vincent Price, Fabian Forte, Franco Franchi, Ciccio Ingrassia) – Classic Movie Review 4314
‘MEET THE MOST TITILATING TIME BOMBS EVER! ‘ Vincent Price went to Italy to re-create his role as the mad scientist Dr Goldfoot for director Mario Bava’s unwanted and stupid 1966 sequel to the previous […]
The Fixer *** (1968, Alan Bates, Dirk Bogarde, Georgia Brown, Hugh Griffith, Ian Holm, Jack Gilford, Elizabeth Hartman, Carol White, David Warner) – Classic Movie Review 4282
Director John Frankenheimer’s 1968 movie of Bernard Malamud’s much admired novel is forceful and well meaning. But is also long, slow-moving and very hard going and was therefore unsurprisingly not popular at the box office. However, it […]

The Scarlet Empress ***** (1934, Marlene Dietrich, John Lodge, Sam Jaffe, Louise Dresser, C Aubrey Smith, Edward Van Sloan, Gavin Gordon) – Classic Movie Review 2936
Marlene Dietrich is truly magnificent in The Scarlet Empress, producer-director Josef von Sternberg’s spectacular and thrilling 1934 visual explosion of a historical romantic biopic. Forget screen-writer Manuel Komroff’s average sort of tale, which is allegedly […]
Anna Karenina *** (1948, Vivien Leigh, Ralph Richardson, Kieron Moore, Sally Ann Howes, Martita Hunt) – Classic Movie Review 2915
Producer Alexander Korda and director Julien Duvivier’s 1948 British remake of the 1935 Greta Garbo Hollywood success based on Leo Tolstoy’s classic novel Anna Karenina is appealing enough but not quite another triumph. Unfortunately, the famous […]
