Gloria is a well done even sweet crime-drama where you can see why Gena Rowlands earned her Best Actress Academy Award nomination and the young John Adames, in his one and only role, does a nice job.

An uneven adventure-drama, Genghis Khan is still a well acted, primarily by Omar Sharif in the title role, and entertaining enough film.

Cinderella Liberty is a well acted, if not uneven, drama-romance with two great performances by James Caan and Marsha Mason who did receive an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress.

Take a Girl Like You is a fun little 1970s romantic-comedy romp propelled by the charismatic performances by Hayley Mills and Oliver Reed.

Let’s Make Love is another charming film from Marilyn Monroe and although I didn’t think Yves Montand was a great leading man, I did have a fun time watching them together and an all around engaging story.

My Sister Eileen is a cute and fun 1950s-era comedy-musical with many of the tropes you would expect from the era, and all of it enjoyable thanks to three wonderful performances by Janet Leigh, Betty Garrett and Jack Lemmon.

Geronimo: An American Legend is a excellently made historical drama from renowned filmmaker Walter Hill and with a great group of cast headlined by Gene Hackman, Wes Studi (as the title character), Jason Patric and Matt Damon in one of his early roles, this is a great film.

No Down Payment is a well done and underappreciated movie about 4 families living in 1950s suburbia and features some great performances, particularly Joanne Woodward, Tony Randall and Cameron Mitchell.

The Hospital is a dark comedy that works mostly for George C. Scott though the story itself isn’t only mildly amusing. The Blu-ray has okay video/audio transfers but lacks many features.

Model Shop was an okay enough drama that excels with the performance from Alexandra Hay while I found Gary Lockwood’s Matthews to be a bit annoyingly dense of a character.

The Seven-Ups might not be one of the more well-known crime-dramas that came out of the 70s and although the filmmaking aspects weren’t exactly top-notch when compared to its counterparts, the chase scene alone was worth the admission.

Manhattan Murder Mystery might not be one of my favorite Woody Allen movies, it is certainly one of the more entertaining ones featuring a great performance from Diane Keaton.

My Cousin Rachel is a well crafted, nicely-shot, and finely acted (by Richard Burton and Olivia de Havilland) romantic-drama-mystery that I prefer a bit over the Rachel Weisz remake.
