Used to think Regeneration was better, realized I was wrong
A real treasure of a film!
Like AFTER HOURS, but set and shot in Occupied France! Great stuff!
Maybe Stanwyck's best performance
Best film to see during any economic crisis!!!
Best Police Movie!
Few film-makers make you as alive to light and texture as does Jean-Marie Straub.
Raoul Walsh's masterpiece and pretty much the best pre-Code American movie!!!
Terrific in Vidor's THE WEDDING NIGHT and DIE MORDER DIMITRI KARAMASOFF
All apologies to CHINATOWN but this one is the best neo-Noir movie!
Terrific episodes by Fellini, Visconti and Monicelli!
The most beautiful movie in the world!
One of the greatest period movies...
Maybe Minnelli's best!
Ray's strangest film!
All said and done, the best film noir ever made!
First, Chinatown was my favorite, followed by Melville's Le Samourai & Le Cercle Rouge. But really those are post-noirs. Of the original noirs, I'd have to agree with you that this is definitely my favorite--transcends the genre and contains poetry and spirituality.
His performance in THE LONG GOODBYE is a masterpiece quite apart and yet central to the masterpiece that is the rest of the film. And also JOHNNY GUITAR, THE ASPHALT JUNGLE, NOVECENTO and many others.
Far and away the best film version of A Clockwork Orange
As close as anyone will get to Melville's masterpiece on film...
Maybe the most depressing movie ever made...
Judy Holliday's best(and sadly last) film and Vincente Minnelli's greatest musical.
Also terrific...
Terrific page photo for a change...
There is nothing in cinema like the finale in Death Valley...
Bertolucci's first in colour and really underrated. Pierre Clementi's performance is unforgettable.
Where's ANNE OF THE INDIES, best damn pirate movie ever made...
One of the greatest achievements of all time.
Just saw THE LAST FRONTIER, its terrific and should be on The Auteurs(or whatever the f--k it chooses to call itself).
I just saw HAMMETT, it's a really terrific film. Wish they put a page here for it!
Again...wrong still....
Why for f--k's sake is Robert Ryan's portrait on this page?
