Director Harold D Schuster’s modest but effective 1955 American black and white Western film The Return of Jack Slade [Texas Rose] stars John Ericson as Jack Slade Jr, Mari Blanchard as Texas Rose and Neville […]
Inspector Maigret [Maigret tend un piège] [Maigret Sets a Trap] **** (1958, Jean Gabin, Annie Girardot, Olivier Hussenot, Jeanne Boitel, André Valmy, Lino Ventura, Jean Desailly) – Classic Movie Review 9543
Jean Gabin gives a tremendous performance as Georges Simenon’s famed pipe-smoking police inspector Maigret, investigating Jack the Ripper-type knife-murders of women in Paris’s seedy Montmartre. Director Jean Delannoy’s extremely satisfying, top-level 1958 French police thriller […]
Behold a Pale Horse *** (1964, Gregory Peck, Anthony Quinn, Omar Sharif) – Classic Movie Review 9427
Director Fred Zinnemann’s 1964 Behold a Pale Horse is a high-class, but low-involvement post-Spanish Civil War drama, afflicted by much miscasting, but with dignified acting none the less. Zinnemann was probably most interested in the […]

Home Alone 3 ** (1997, Alex D Linz, Olek Krupa, Rya Kihlstedt, Lenny von Dohlen) – Classic Movie Review 2859
The whole of the original Home Alone team is absent for director Raja Gosnell’s third, unrelated 1997 episode. This time a different lad, eight-year-old Alex Pruitt (Alex D Linz), is (again improbably) left abandoned at home alone […]
Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House ** (2002, French Stewart, Mike Weinberg, Clare Carey, Jason Beghe, Erick Avari, Missi Pyle, Joanna Going) – Classic Movie Review 2860
In director Rod Daniel’s perhaps unwanted 2002 third sequel, it is the turn of Michael ‘Mike’ Weinberg to play Kevin McCallister, who is staying Home Alone again. And once more of course robbers attack the […]
