Witness for the...
Really Great 66 Points 1957

Starched and stilted, Witness for the Prosecution nonetheless packs one hell of a punch at the end, with glorious detail throughout and a powerhouse cast who are the complete masters of their juicy roles. Nevermind that its theatrical roots show. Agatha Christie knew how to write for max view…

White Mane
Great 66 Points 1953

Elemental kid’s movie, just 40 minutes long, thy name is White Mane. It’s from France of all places, with French cowboys. Really. And wild French horses – white horses and white stallions.

White Mane, the leader of a herd of wild Camargues, "was a proud and fearsome horse. All the other h…

Walk The Line
Really Great 77 Points 2005

Walk The Line is a great music biopic, enjoyable whether you’re a country music fan or not, or care a whit about Johnny Cash & June Carter. After watching the movie, you’ll know why they are held in such high esteem and cared about as people.

To Catch a Thief
Very Good 66 Points 1955

Before It Takes a Thief there was To Catch a Thief, an exercise in high style, sumptuous settings and 1950s thrills, featuring the most glamorous couple in Silver Screen history.

Very Good 66 Points 1955

A severely dated farce would hardly be worth watching now if it didn’t star Marilyn Monroe at her most incandescent. Even better, The Seven Year Itch features Marilyn standing atop a windy subway grate in a rather famous white halter dress – widely considered one of the iconic images of the 20…
