Broadway Danny Rose **** (1984, Woody Allen, Mia Farrow, Nick Apollo Forte) – Classic Movie Review 1811
Writer-director-star Woody Allen’s wry and warm 1984 movie about life on the lower rungs of the showbiz ladder is delightfully quirky and affectionate. The third of Allen’s 13 movies with Mia Farrow, and Allen’s […]
Vanity Fair *** (2004, Reese Witherspoon, James Purefoy, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Rhys Ifans, Romola Garai) – Classic Movie Review 1751
Likeable and engaging, director Mira Nair’s 2004 film is a very fair if slightly uninspired stab at filming a difficult novel, plodding relentlessly through the seemingly endless and complex detail and plotlines of William Makepeace […]
The Impostors *** (1998, Stanley Tucci, Oliver Platt, Alfred Molina, Steve Buscemi) – Classic Movie Review 1691
Writer-star-director Stanley Tucci’s freewheeling 1998 old-style slapstick comedy is engagingly silly, fast-moving entertainment. Tucci and Oliver Platt do a Laurel and Hardy double act as Arthur and Maurice, out-of-work actors on the run – from just […]
Macao **** (1952, Robert Mitchum, Jane Russell, William Bendix) – Classic Movie Review 1679
‘Everybody’s lonely, worried, and sorry. Everybody’s looking for something.’ – Jane Russell. Director Josef Von Sternberg ties his steamy, sultry 1952 film noir up in a tidy knot. This underrated, very likeable thriller boasts two scintillating performances […]
A Mighty Wind *** (2003, Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, Harry Shearer) – Classic Movie Review 1636
Another amusing ‘mockumentary’ from Christopher Guest, Michael McKean and Harry Shearer, who gave us the hysterical This Is Spinal Tap back in 1984. This time in 2003 they’re sending up the folk music scene, starring […]
Yankee Doodle Dandy ***** (1942, James Cagney, Joan Leslie, Walter Huston, Richard Whorf, Irene Manning, George Tobias, Rosemary DeCamp, Jeanne Cagney, Vera Lewis) – Classic Movie Review 1589
Director Michael Curtiz’s triumphant triple-Oscar-winning 1942 dramatic musical showbiz biopic of the life of renowned American musical composer, playwright, actor, dancer and singing star George M Cohan is gloriously rumbustious and effervescent. Packed with toe-tapping […]
Victor Victoria **** (1982, Julie Andrews, Robert Preston, James Garner) – Classic Movie Review 1462
Writer-director Blake Edwards’s bubbly and witty 1982 gender-bender musical remake of a 1933 German comedy, Viktor und Viktoria, is huge vivacious fun. It provides an ideal vehicle for his wife Julie Andrews as a struggling female soprano […]
