VHS : Casablanca [1942]

Casablanca [1942]


starring: Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, Claude Rains, Conrad Veidt
directed by: Michael Curtiz

This used to be my favourite. I went to see it at a cinema in the 70s, when it was distinctly arthouse. Times change, though. Now the racism grates too much. When it was made I'm sure it was meant to be radical. Rick saying he does not sell human beings when offered a price for Sam might have been cutting edge in '42. Not now.

It does not matter how captivating Ms Bergman is, I cannot see past her using that American racist insult, 'boy'.

Sam, of course, does not even have two dimensions to his character.

To Catch A Killer [1991]


starring: Brian Dennehy, Michael Riley, Margot Kidder, Meg Foster, Martin Julien

This is a very good film and Brian Dennehy is so convincing as Gacy, The story is very good from start to finish, I highly recommend this film if you are interested in true storys about serial killers as this is one of the best. The other version called "Gacy" is ok but if you want a good true story about John Gacy I would watch this film.

If you are a fan of Bryan Fullers work (Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies) then you will LOVE this movie.

It is so beautiful and rich in colour and a joy to watch.

I loved this when I was a kid.
Now I'm old (haha) and have kids of my own.

We sat down together this weekend to watch this film.... I knew it would be good and that the kids would love it, but I had forgotten just how good it really is.

Every scene in the film is intense - exciting, sad, funny, scarey...
There is no let up from begining to end.

One minute you want to cry because all seems lost and the scene is overwhelmingly sad.
The next, your flying on the back of a dragon-dog all excited and enchanted.

Having watched hundreds of films in my lifetime so far - I have to say that this is the best film I have ever seen.

An absolute triumph.

What a charming film with the late great Bob Peck. I knew nothing about this film, even though it was shot near where I come from in Keighley, until I read about it in MADE IN YORKSHIRE. It is also based on true events which happened in Yorkshire.

I had thought it must be dire otherwise I would have heard about. How wrong I was. Was it shown in the cinema ? I have a job tracking it down but found a copy in the Keighley lending library.

Check it out as its well worth watching.

One of the great motion picture romances, "An Affair to Remember" stars the legendary Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr as two engaged to be wed people meeting aboard a cruise to New York. The pair soon become acquainted and their friendship blooms into romance.

They agree to meet at the top of the Empire State Building six months from then, provided they still feel the same way about each other. However, through a tragic series of events, their romance seems doomed forever.

The film boasts stellar performances from Grant as a lovable playboy finally wishing to settle down with his ideal woman; Kerr is particularly engaging in the second half of the film regarding what has happened to their relationship.

The film glides by seemlessly ... Read More:

This appears to be difficult to get hold of now, so you could end up paying a lot of money for a film that might not be to your taste.
The plot such that there is focuses on a Woman awaiting the results of her Cancer test.

She travels around Paris in the two hours that make up the title of the film. During this time she meets various people and we get to see a lot of Paris and the camera appears to give us the chance to see ordinary people (who may or may not have known they were going to appear in a film)
going about their daily lives. The Algerian situation is hinted at a few times as well. You will have gathered from this that the film is not your standard Hollywood action/blockbuster!

Certainly the cinematography is excellent and ... Read More:

What a shame that this wonderful production has been transfered to DVD in 14:9 format when the stunning locations would have looked so much better in true widescreen.
