‘His wife just left him for another man. And so did his boyfriend.’ Alan Bates gives a dazzling performance in director Harold Pinter’s brilliant 1973 drama film Butley, based on Simon Gray’s masterwork play. ‘His […]
The Student Prince ** (1954, Ann Blyth, Edmund Purdom, John Ericson, John Williams, Edmund Gwenn, S Z Sakall, Louis Calhern) – Classic Movie Review 6886
Sigmund Romberg’s classic operetta The Student Prince is stodgily filmed by MGM in 1954, but nothing stops those vintage Romberg melodies. Mario Lanza’s beautiful tenor voice soars on the soundtrack, but he is nowhere to […]
