Director Francis Coppola’s hardly seen 1987 movie Gardens of Stone was another setback to the careers of its star James Caan and director. It was mysteriously taken off during the first week of its London […]
The Shopworn Angel **** (1938, James Stewart, Margaret Sullavan, Walter Pidgeon, Hattie McDaniel, Sam Levene, Alan Curtis, Nat Pendleton) – Classic Movie Review 4579
The tearful 1938 wartime romantic drama film The Shopworn Angel is a tasty reworking of the old story, with the right cast in James Stewart and Margaret Sullavan to make it work. Director H C […]
The Perfect Furlough [Strictly for Pleasure] **½ (1958, Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh, Elaine Stritch, Keenan Wynn, Troy Donahue, King Donovan, Linda Cristal, Marcel Dalio) – Classic Movie Review 4546

La Ronde ***** (1950, Anton Walbrook, Simone Signoret, Serge Reggiani, Simone Simon, Daniel Gélin, Danielle Darrieux, Fernand Gravey) – Classic Movie Review 4305
Co-writer/ director Max Ophüls’s 1950 film masterwork is a brilliantly plush, atmospheric and marvellously performed adaptation of the classic Arthur Schnitzler play. It is set in a hauntingly atmospheric Vienna in 1900, and is told […]
