Producers, The (1968)
The characters are a joy. I could watch Gene Wilder's face all day.
Killers, The (1946)
A brooding and masterful piece of noir. The flashbacks are a really deft touch and the twists and turns deeply satisfying.
Drowning by Numbers (1987)
Boucher, Le (The Butcher) (1969)
Very strange plot and the film feels very clunky to me, but it holds your attention. I'm not sure why it's so highly thought of.
Vanishing, The (1988)
I didn't want to give this 4 stars, but it has stayed with me so long I think it merits it. Super dark and unsettling. Not a film to forget.
Laura (1944)
Plot is a little thin and predictable, but maybe not at the time it was made. Nicely atmospheric though.
Shadow of a Doubt (1943)
Hitchcock's favourite of his films apparently. The extra 'making of' is worth a watch. Stand out performances by Joseph Cotton and Teresa Wright.
Avatar (2009)
OMG, get a life, you other reviewers. Heaps of fun, CGI to die for. Amazing cinematic experience.
Mildred Pierce (1945)
Loved the movie–classic Joan Crawford, one of her best. Then I see the 2011 series with Kate Winslet and Evan Rachel Wood – these women at their prime They acted the hell out of this story– but the end couldn't be more different. Read the book maybe.
Rio Bravo (1959)
Howard Hawks, where have you been all my life? The most beautifully cast, superbly paced Western I have ever seen, and I am a child of the 60s. Loved it! Genius!
