Are We Bound By Ourselves?
This is one of the bonafide classics of cinema. Thus, I, a movie buff, feel obligated to love it. Alas, I can not force myself to love it but I do like it alot and it does impress me in many ways. The acting is superb. Jeanne Moreau effortlessly carries the movie. ...

Decision Before Dawn

Richard Basehart, Gary Merrill

20th Century Fox, 2006

Might Be best Movie About Intelligence Ever
Just saw this movie today on TV (not for the first time) and had to review it despite its age. It has never gotten the attention it deserves I guess because it is too true to life (no sexy blonds or dinner jackets). It is an excellent example of tactical Human ...

The Shoes of the Fisherman

Anthony Quinn, Laurence Olivier

Warner Home Video, 2006

Dad's Review

We must not miss the destiny!
Max Ophlus' s masterpiece is a true straight forward step in the cinematographic language, daring and betting against all the odds, in this extraordinary, genial and unrepeatable film that belongs to the Pantheon of the greatest movies ever filmed in the Cinema Story. ...

Voyage of the Damned

Faye Dunaway, Oskar Werner

Geneon [Pioneer], 1999

True Horror in False Hope
Aside from the fact that these events (or perhaps events just like them but more horrible ) took place, this film could not be more compelling. It is filled with first rate performances (some only in cameo, but all of them fully drawn and realized). This is perhaps ...

Mozart review
The CD was in good condition...my only complaint is that I was disappointed because it was not Oskar Werner's voice...someone else's voice was on CD. I did not know that when I ordered it. Otherwise, it is okay. But I was disappointed in that. But it is better than ...

The Spy Who Came in from the Cold

Richard Burton, Claire Bloom

Paramount, 2004

Gripping Cold War Intrigue
I remember when this movie was first released, a friend saw it and afterward complained bitterly about how boring it was. This was around 1965 and he was expecting something more along the lines of James Bond, Our Man Flint, Matt Helm or any of the other James Bond ...
