Roman Holiday
Really Great 66 Points 1953

“Introducing Audrey Hepburn” reads an opening credit. Yes, the elfin Screen Queen made her debut as a fairytale Princess in Roman Holiday, for which she won the Best Actress Oscar — a splash for the ages!

One of the best RomComs ever, Roman Holiday enchants to this day, utterly charming begi…

The Princess Bride
Really Great 19 Points 1987

For a number of years, my wife kept telling me, “you must see Princess Bride!”, and I have avoided it until recently. What a mistake waiting was! Rob Reiner’s intelligently crafted satirical comedy is pure low-brow entertainment; poking fun at all those clichés in fairytale romances. A cast l…

Aladdin
Really Great 9 Points 1992

Classic story of when boy meets girl, then loses her, then finds her, all while trying to stop an evil vizier and being aided by a hilarious Genie. Aladdin is one of the best films of the Disney renaissance! And while it doesn’t have the same emotional draw of such classics as Lion King(my person…

How to Steal a ...
Great 66 Points 1966

How to Steal a Million could just as easily be titled How to Steal a Movielover’s Heart. Audrey Hepburn & Peter O’Toole in their primes, Paris as if in a stylish fantasy, lots of well-earned laughs: it’s a sure thing.

Wiliam Wyler famously directed Princess Audrey in Roman Holiday

The Young Victoria
Great 83 Points 2009

This ultimate princess movie recounts one of history’s greatest love stories. But it’s more than a chick flick given the lens it provides into the geopolitical machinations at the heart of the greatest empire the world has ever known. Students of history and those interested in the British mona…

Enchanted
Very Good 81 Points 2007

Clever and cute mashup of something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. Romantic weddings and the girls who dream of them explain this calculated blend of old-fashioned animation, modern neuroses, borrowed storyline, and oh-so-blue make-believe world.

I got stuck watch…

The Duchess
OK 83 Points 2008

Chick flik period piece about Princess Diana’s ancestral aunt and cultural predecessor, this well produced costume epic offers decent historical and cultural interest to those (like me) not taken with its marriage gone wrong storyline.

I should probably give it three full beams based on the qu…
