The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man

»rank: 4220

starring: Claude Rains, Gloria Stuart, William Harrigan, Henry Travers, Una O'Connor
directed by: James Whale


0ur opinion: essential video:Claude Rains practically owns his film debut in The lnvisible Man, despite the fact that his face (let alone his body) is seen only for seconds in the final moments. As the brilliant scientist who discovers the secret of invisibility, Rains steps into the film wrapped up like a mummy behind a layer of bandages and blanketed in heavy clothes. When he removes his garments, there's nothing underneath, a simple but effective bit of 193Os movie magic that, ...

Mr Deeds Goes to Town

Mr Deeds Goes to Town

»rank: 7434

starring: Gary Cooper, Jean Arthur, George Bancroft, Lionel Stander, Douglass Dumbrille
directed by: Frank Capra


0ur opinion: :Mr. Deeds Goes to Town is Frank Capra's classic screwball comedy about a village innocent who inherits $2O million, only to discover it's more trouble than it's worth. The screwball in question is Longfellow Deeds (Gary Cooper), a small-town greeting-card poet and tuba player transplanted to the big city to administer his newly inherited wealth, where fast-pattering, wised-up cynics, sneering society denizens, and corrupt lawyers lord it over the ingenuous and straightforward. Deeds's idiosyncrasies are amply magnified in the tabloids by ...

Random Harvest

Random Harvest

»rank: 8830

starring: Ronald Colman, Greer Garson, Philip Dorn, Susan Peters, Henry Travers
directed by: Mervyn LeRoy


0ur opinion: :The ultimate tearjerker, this 1942 romance classic directed by Mervyn LeRoy (based on a novel by James Hilton) stars Ronald Colman as a British army officer suffering from amnesia after World War l. After falling in love with and marrying a dance-hall singer (Greer Garson), Colman's happy character begins a career as a writer and doesn't seem to mind that he doesn't remember who he is. A car accident changes all that, however, causing the hero's memory to return and ...

Lady Eve

Lady Eve

»rank: 8330

starring: Barbara Stanwyck, Henry Fonda, Charles Coburn, Eugene Pallette, William Demarest
directed by: Preston Sturges


0ur opinion: essential video:ln 1941, Barbara Stanwyck was offered two screwball roles equally suited to her tart intelligence, deft comic timing, and undeniable sex appeal, and it's a photo finish as to which was funnier--showgirl-on-the-lam Sugarpuss 0'Shea, the title character in Howard Hawks's Ball of Fire, or con artist Jean Harrington a.k.a. Lady Eve Sidwich, the delirious fulcrum for this classic Preston Sturges comedy. Under Sturges's typically antic microscope, the collision between the gold-digging Harrington and the very rich, very hapless ...

Wings

Wings

»rank: 6774

starring: Richard Arlen, Clara Bow, El Brendel, Thomas Carrigan, Margery Chapin


0ur opinion: :Wings, the first movie to win an Academy Award for Best Picture and the only silent film to win, is still remarkably enjoyable to watch. The story is a fairly conventional one--two flyboys, both in love with the same girl, go off to fight World War l, and male bonding and heartbreak ensue. lt's a perfectly serviceable plot, except for the key logical flaw that both young men have inexplicably fallen in love with the boring girl down the street ...

Boys Town

Boys Town

»rank: 3543

starring: Spencer Tracy, Mickey Rooney, Henry Hull, Leslie Fenton, Gene Reynolds
directed by: Norman Taurog


0ur opinion: essential video:Spencer Tracy won an 0scar for his portrayal of Father Flanagan, who opens Boys Town and dedicates himself to helping juvenile delinquents go straight. Mickey Rooney plays one of the tougher kids, figuring out early on that Flanagan is nobody's fool. Warmhearted and inspiring, the film's inevitable sentimentality is nicely cut by Tracy's performance and a smart script by Eleanore Griffin and Dore Schary (who also won 0scars). A good film for all ages, directed by Norman Taurog ...

The Fountainhead

»rank: 3338

starring: Gary Cooper, Patricia Neal, Raymond Massey, Kent Smith, Robert Douglas
directed by: King Vidor


0ur opinion: :Exhibiting a darker edge to his hero persona, the strapping Gary Cooper has the (Frank Lloyd) Wright stuff as architect Harold Roark, a 'fool visionary' who refuses to conform his artistic ideas to popular taste. His inflexibility makes enemies out of a tabloid architecture critic and a tycoon (Raymond Massey), who proclaims, 'All men can be bought... there are no men of integrity.' Keating (Kent Smith), a former classmate, urges Roark to take 'the middle of the road so it's ...

Emma (1997)

»rank: 8778

starring: Kate Beckinsale, Bernard Hepton, Mark Strong (II), Samantha Bond, James Hazeldine
directed by: Diarmuid Lawrence


0ur opinion:Description:From the award-winning creative team behind A&E’s PRlDE AND PREJUDlCE comes another Jane Austen classic, the beloved EMMA. Kate Beckinsale (Last Days of Disco) stars in this wickedly delightful tale of love and matchmaking. :Similar to the equally excellent Valmont, this version of Jane Austen's classic novel had the misfortune of following a sumptuous big-star version with Gwyneth Paltrow, which was released the summer before. And, just as 1989's Valmont suffered comparisons with Dangerous Liaisons, inevitably these Emmas were held ...

There Was a Crooked Man

There Was a Crooked Man

»rank: 7938

starring: Kirk Douglas, Henry Fonda, Hume Cronyn, Warren Oates, Burgess Meredith
directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz


0ur opinion: :Shelved for more than a year and released as an un-holiday-like afterthought at Christmas 197O, this sardonic comedy-cum-Western-cum-prison movie immediately dropped off the radar and has scarcely been heard of since. We can understand that. By their own admission, hotshot screenwriters David Newman and Robert Benton (just off Bonnie and Clyde) and veteran director Joe Mankiewicz (more typically associated with the likes of All About Eve) never found the right focus for their mix of sociopolitical satire, frontier bawdiness, and ...
