It Can Stand Alongside The Earlier Version
"Farewell My Lovely," based on the novel of the same name by famed hard-boiled detective author Raymond Chandler, a Californian, is set in the author's glamorous 1940's film noir Los Angeles. However, it was filmed, lavishly -- no stinting on any car or landmark -- in the Los Angeles of the 1970's, to be released in 1975. It was also filmed in color, the theory being that LA noirs may ...

Not As a Stranger

Olivia de Havilland, Robert Mitchum

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

One of the first of the medical reality movies
Although many of the scenes in this epic would be judged "hokey" by modern standards, "Not As a Stranger" was one of the first films to give viewers a factual look inside the medical profession and challenge the god-like nature of physicians. Mitchum plays a young man with many personal "issues," who tries to work them out by driving himself to become a stellar doctor. Sinatra plays an ...

good movie, not great. interesting action scenes however a little too pyschologically bent. The jazz score although well played, is out of place. You'll recognize many vetran western actors such as Paul Fix, David Carradine, Jack Kelly, and John Anderson

Sony Pictures, 1994

Exciting thriller to the eyes!
Nightkill is one of those kind of thriller that you dont normally see now a days. Actually, it has a very interesting and original plot that will suck your brain up to the last minute. The first half hour is the so-called "routine" check like all other thrillers but the last half hour is a nail biter. This movie stars Jaclyn Smith, James Franciscus and veteran actor Robert Mitchum. This is also ...

David Lean's Best
I don't know if this is David Lean's best film, because I haven't seen his earlier movies, but it is better than all his big budget movies, starting with "The Bridge Over The River Kwai, and it is one of the all-time great movies. A relevant fact is that the screenwriter, Robert Bolt, was married to Sarah Miles, the actress who played Rose. They later divorced, and rumors had it that their ...

This movie is an older movie, but an absolute must see. It is one of my favorites starring Robert Mitchum. It features a young George Peppard and George Hamilton.

Katharine Hepburn, Robert Mitchum

MGM (Warner), 1998

Surprising
I thoroughly enjoyed this film. While it was a departure for Ms. Hepburn, it was intriguing to see her go through the ups and downs as a damsel in distress, if for no other reason than to see her do something against type. Since I'm used to seeing her in strong female roles, it was interesting to see her play someone who was a victim. The whole cast did a great job. Of course, I wasn't ...

Two for the Seesaw

Robert Mitchum, Shirley MacLaine

MGM (Video & DVD), 1992

Contains film greatness
Like Helen Morgan's "Applause", the film version of "Two For the Seesaw" gives its viewers a seldom seen look at the real theatre world of New York City in the 20th Century. This is a gritty, realistic love story on the cold, hard streets of New York that somehow is still able to show the real romance of the giant city. Not unlike the neo-realism of Fellini, Viscounti and Pausolini, "Two for the ...

I was absolutely amazed at this dvd, it was so long since I had seen it as teenager, it brought back many memories of days gone by. It makes one feel certainly older but the movie was just as wonderful as before. One never forgets Marilyn Monroe, Robert Mitchum & Rory Calhoun, we all should watch more of these older movies it gives you a lift. Take the time and just do it!!!! You will be glad ...

Universal Studios, 1992

One of my favorite movies
Movie showed up on time and in perfect condition. As much as I enjoy this movie (and have for years), the producers comments about the making of the movie were even more enjoyable and interesting then the movie itself. I will not give away any of what I learned. Also the comments were quite substantial. So I spent one evening watching the comments and another night watching the movie.

Sometimes revenge is not a dish best eaten cold.
If you are a WWII buff, you can't miss this classic. Released in 1944 long before the end of the war, Hollywood and the Army cooperated in getting this top-secret out before the public, as a morale booster. Think about it: December 7, 1941 and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Just over four months later, on April 18, 1942, the unbelievable mission of launching 16 B-25 Mitchell bombers off ...
