Oh God! What a film. One of Hitch's best that I never get tired of re-watching. Talk about a sizzle between Grant and Eve Marie Saint! One of B. Herrmann's finest scores.

I thought he was very good in 48 Hours (1982), especially so up against Nick Nolte who is very powerful.

That film couldn't be made today because it would seem way too trite. At least I think it...

FUBAR series - Arnold Schwarzenegger

The tired writing, the cliches, the superfluous acting-- IMO it's almost painful. Arnie is...

I don't know the story of who censored it, but it sure sounds like something Disney would do. The French Connection was/is a great picture. It should be left as it was.

That's both an intuitive and rewarding way to see the older films; and to see how they compare with other films from their era.

Citizen Kane (1941) is possibly the best example. The screenplay,...

Yeah, I can't say that I've seen any lists that have TG as number 1.

It seems that usually either Citizen Kane or Vertigo in fairly recent times have captured the GOAT spot. These opinions change...

I rated it about the same as did you. It was a rather peculiar picture: the combination of an old western and other-worldly aliens. I thought Paul Dano had an interesting if unflattering part. ...

Great stuff, CT!! I was able to see them first hand at a small bluegrass club in Cincinnati called the Ken-Mil in the early '60s. The guys were flawless.
