a brilliant film by anyone's standards, but not nearly as good as the nicholas cage remake.

(i'm joking, of course.)

(an old joke: why is the letter "d" important? because without it edward woodward would be ewar woowar.)

April 22, 2002


A masterpiece in so many ways. The viewer never really knows where their allegiance lies: with the humorous but suspect islanders or the straight-up, plain-talking Christian copper. In the battle of wits between Sgt Howie and the Islanders the film perfectly encapsulates the age-old battle and yin-yang synnergy between Paganism (Earthiness, fun, free love, self-expression, humour, sex, fighting, fertility, dancing, community, sacrifice) and Monotheism (Duty, honour, truth, dignity, charity, discipline, selflessness, repression, individual salvation, self-sacrifice). The hippy in you will love the islanders but you can't help respecting the straightforward dedication of the sgt in the face of the riddles and deceit all around him.

DVD : Tom Jones [1963]

Tom Jones [1963]


starring: Albert Finney, Susannah York, Hugh Griffith, Edith Evans, Joan Greenwood
directed by: Tony Richardson
February 03, 2003


As one of the greatest British films ever made, Tony Richardson's adaptation of Henry Fielding's classic Tom Jones is long overdue for a full and proper restoration. Shortly before his tragic death from AIDS in 1991, Richardson presided over a personal restoration which included a brand new stereo soundtrack. However, this appeared to be the only real improvement, as the film itself remained the brutally cut TV version that had been around for years. In contrast, MGM's current DVD release is easily the best print of this film available, and technically way in advance of previous video releases and TV airings. Beautifully bright, steady, and well defined with good colour saturation, this digital transfer is an absolute joy to watch, and as far as I can see completely ... Read More:

I saw this film first in 1967, and many, many times since, and westerns just don't get better than this. Paul Newman is at his very best, Richard Boone is at his very nastiest (and best), the humour is, like Cool Hand Luke, subtle and funny. If all that is not enough, there is a real story behind it, and the good guy doesn't win. Just like life
What a shame we cannot get it in PAL format

The Wicker Man (2 DVD + CD Collector's Edition) [1973]

directed by: Robin Hardy
September 04, 2006


Incredibly inventive movie which takes you into a whole other world and captivates you with the haunting guitar strings, Scottish Brogues and wistful but dark intensions.

Following up a report of the disappearance of a young girl called Rowan Morrison, the religious innocent and level-headed Sergeant Howie goes to a small remote Island in Scotland known as Summerisle. When he arrives, his presence is made to feel most unwelcome by the locals and their hospitality is somewhat questionable.

As he further investigates the island, he becomes more and more aware that something is not quite right; the villagers stories of having never heard of the missing girl despite evidence proving otherwise seem to contradict each other, and Howie begins to fear that ... Read More:
