Yeah...it sucks
Two monumental performances in a film that strays a bit too much. Still, a high water mark in Montaldo's career
Kudos to Joseph Strick for taking a stab at this one...it's only so-so, but Rip Torn is dynamite
The performance by Geraldine Page has to rank as one of the all-time greats...she's so controlled while being completely OUT OF CONTROL
Somehow this film is buried but it's actually extremely well acted, with the great Moreau leading the pack.
The most sublime, perfectly cast of all Wilder's films of the 1940s
It's ridiculous...and WILDLY ENTERTAINING...a kind of free fall of a movie...with no real sense of time & space.
It's not awful that's for sure, but it is hopelessly dated, awkwardly directed (almost TOO flashy in its attempt to show ALL that is seedy in NYC circa 1965). Sal Mineo is terrific but Juliet Prowse is too gawky and aloof to be convincing as the object of anyone's obsession. The oddball supporting cast helps...Jan Murray, Elaine Strich (very butch) and Stanley Beck.
A tremendous performance by Burt Lancaster
One of the best movies of the '70s
Arguably the best non-Leone Eastwood western...and a dynamite cast!
John Frankenheimer hit the ground running with this film...sort of a less spectacular REBEL WITHOUT A CAUSE.
A camp classic...the idea of Stephen Boyd being an Oscar contender is in itself absurd...but then throw in Milton Berle in a dramatic role, Edie Adams & Ernest Borgnine as a couple, Joseph Cotten looking grey and really old, and of course there's Tony Bennett as Hymie Kelly !!?!?!? And did Harlan Ellison REALLY have a hand in this script?
The performance by Dirk Bogarde is so staggering it's a shame the movie isn't better. It's one thing to move at a deliberate pace, another to be remarkably boring
A soap opera to be sure, but with such high class production values and a killer cast (Taylor & Burton yes, but also M Rutherford, M. Smith, E Martinelli and, best of all O Welles...sending up every double talkng producer imaginable!)
Not good...in fact, very bad indeed.
A superb, nearly forgotten psycho-drama. James Mason is miraculous and Robert Preston more than holds his own
All the stories are clever, but none is particularly scary. The prologue features the always unusual Patrick Magee as the acting head of the asylum. To say this institution's HR Department needs to be revamped is an understatement
David Niven looks old, Anna Karina looks lost and Topol yells a lot
It grows on you...it's way out of control...but there is so much beauty here, it's hard to fuly dislike it
A near classic with some great time-bending direction by Sidney Lumet. Timothy Hutton is great the supporting cast is stellar: Ed Asner, Tovah Feldsuh; Amanda Plummer
Hysterical...
With its European sensibility and LA locations, THE OUTSIDE MAN is something of an oddity but the acting is dynamite. Jean Louis Trintignant, Ann-Margret, Roy Scheider, Angie Dickinson, Ted de Corsia, Georgia Engel...one of the buried treasures of the 1970s!
Featuring some of Lucio Fulci's best direction (not sure that's really saying a whole lot).
Not nearly as good as you'd expect considering the heavyweight cast!
An astounding achievement. It works on every level...it's wrenching, funny, wrenching, funny. It's also one of the best acted films to come along in a long time. Alexander Payne is now 5 for 5.
You HAVE to see this
Mastroianni is great and the film is really well put together...it says a lot about isolation, decaying class systems as well as plain old fashioned mental illness
The best of Woody Allen's early funny films!
Hilarious
