The Lost Weekend is another very well made movie from Billy Wilder and features the Academy Award winning performance from star Ray Milland (and took home the Oscar for picture, director and writing).
Even with the uncomfortable relationship between an adult and teen (or even pre-teen), Diva is still a unique and entertaining oddball of a drama-thriller featuring some wonderful cinematography.
Fellini’s Casanova, while not something I liked a whole lot, and on the lengthy side at 2.5 hours, at least did have enough bizarre moments and characters that kept my attention just wondering what the hell I was watching.
It’s easy to see why Mad Max has reached cult status, even with the low budget, director George Miller, along with star Mel Gibson’s on-screen charisma, is still very well regarded 40 years later.
The Ipcress File is worth checking out even with its slow pace as Michael Caine is magnanimous as Harry Palmer, showcasing his on-screen charisma. In addition, there are some striking stylistic moments and shots.
The Unwanted has some things going for it especially with its two relatively young actresses in Hannah Fierman and Christen Orr and although some work could’ve been done with the writing and in the editing room, there’s enough there that makes it worth at least a rental.
