Suspicion ***** (1941, Cary Grant, Joan Fontaine, Cedric Hardwicke, Nigel Bruce, Dame May Whitty, Isabel Jeans, Leo G Carroll) – Classic Movie Review 441
Alfred Hitchcock’s richly enjoyable and likeable 1941 thriller Suspicion (1941) is a sweaty exercise in anxiety. Both stars Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine are at the peak of their career, powers and attraction. In the […]
Bad Day at Black Rock ***** (1955, Spencer Tracy, Robert Ryan, Anne Francis, Dean Jagger, Walter Brennan, John Ericson, Ernest Borgnine, Lee Marvin) – Classic Movie Review 429
Director John Sturges’s brilliant 1955 Western thriller is his finest celluloid moment, bringing simmering, atmospheric suspense scaldingly to the boil. Spencer Tracy relishes one of his finest roles as one-armed army veteran John J Macreedy, who arrives […]

Strangers on a Train ***** (1951, Farley Granger, Robert Walker, Ruth Roman, Leo G Carroll, Patricia Hitchcock, Marion Lorne, Howard St John) – Classic Movie Review 68
The inspired 1951 Alfred Hitchcock classic Strangers on a Train is quite simply the movie suspense thriller by which all others must be judged. After a hiatus in box-office successes, Hitchcock hit one of career […]
The Quiet Man ***** (1952, John Wayne, Maureen O’Hara) – Classic Movie Review 62
