White Heat (1949) 94% “This is a film of action and suspense... one of the finest in a long time... in case we didn't realize before that crime doesn't pay, this is the cincher.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 23, 2024 Full Review The Lavender Hill Mob (1951) 100% “This is a rare comedy treat. ” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Jailhouse Rock (1957) 67% “I liked the kid. He gives a better account of himself than did the scriptwriter.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 12, 2024 Full Review The Big Heat (1953) 94% “When I say this is an adult film -- I mean it -- and no nonsense! It's a biting drama about the evils of civic corruption with gangsterdom and law enforcement agencies contriving in unholy political wedlock to fleece and intimidate the public.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 10, 2024 Full Review Sabrina (1954) 89% “Sabrina still stands as an amusing, in a fluffy way, comedy based on the familiar Cinderella theme. ” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 28, 2024 Full Review National Velvet (1944) 98% “The plot of the film is strong, but it's the ordinary every day living touches that enrich it... the warm relationships between members of the family... the light comedy touches and deeper emotional moments.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 26, 2024 Full Review The Searchers (1956) 87% “Natalie Wood, Olive Carey and Harry Carey, Jr., standout in important roles well handled. But it's Wayne and Hunter who rate most of the footage and character build up.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Westward the Women (1951) 69% “The story is one of feminine valor. ” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 2, 2024 Full Review The Lone Ranger (1956) 90% “Moore and Silverheels are apt in performance. And, it's pleasant to see Bonita Granville back on a cast list... Fast riding, gallantry on the range, and virtue winning over vice, all against a colorful background, make for a tidy package of suspense.” – San Francisco Examiner Nov 9, 2023 Full Review Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) 88% “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is a topper.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 8, 2023 Full Review Sayonara (1957) 82% “Bewitchingly beautiful and beguiling.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Back to Bataan (1945) 86% “Miss Franquelli... is an exciting and, well worth watching, future screen personality.” – San Francisco Examiner Feb 1, 2023 Full Review Diabolique (1955) 95% “It's a super suspense yarn knitted together with a deft Gallic touch. Madame DuFarge couldn't do better, and a splendid, very splendid cast, sees that no dramatic stitches are dropped.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 31, 2023 Full Review Gentleman's Agreement (1947) 82% “In terms of stimulating and vigorous entertainment, Gentleman's Agreement merits the forecast of being the best film of the year.” – San Francisco Examiner Nov 16, 2022 Full Review Stalag 17 (1953) 91% “This picture you have to see... while It deals remotely with war, it definitely is more on the happy side... a fine laugh deal, with suspense beautifully interlaced.” – San Francisco Examiner Nov 5, 2022 Full Review Cobra Woman (1944) 73% “We're not saying Cobra Woman is a great picture. It isn't. We doubt if Maria Montez and Jon Hall, who star in it, are particularly proud of their efforts. But we'll wager they had fun making it.” – San Francisco Examiner Sep 20, 2022 Full Review House on Haunted Hill (1959) 80% “Sheer fun.” – San Francisco Examiner Sep 16, 2022 Full Review La Strada (1954) 98% “On one hand, Fellini digs deep, camerawise for human emotions. On the other, he merely scratches the surface. In both instances, he comes up with a painfully accurate picture of man at his bestial and decent peak.” – San Francisco Examiner Sep 14, 2022 Full Review Gigi (1958) 89% “Between us, I didn't like the picture! Too many of the strong characters have been watered. But, I had fun watching it.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 23, 2022 Full Review From Here to Eternity (1953) 88% “Startlingly fine performances throughout are the measure of the film. Clift scores as the sensitive private whose professional life is no more complicated than his personal life.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 17, 2022 Full Review The Apartment (1960) 93% “With The Apartment, Wilder outdid himself. Not only is it much better than his previous comedy, but this has several serious and poignant moments that stir one... and, for these moments you can thank Fred MacMurray, Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine.” – San Francisco Examiner Mar 16, 2022 Full Review The Lost Weekend (1945) 97% “Worthwhile films are many. Merely passable ones too many. But extraordinarily fine films produced in a year can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Lost Weekend would take up three fingers In any given annum. It's that good.” – San Francisco Examiner Feb 3, 2022 Full Review Porgy and Bess (1959) 71% “Performances of excellent caliber are contributed by Diahann Carroll, Ruth Attaway and Earl Jackson. Andre Previn's musical direction is inspiring.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 19, 2022 Full Review Scarlet Street (1945) 100% “Miss Bennett matches her previous excellent acting as the hard and brittle damsel with a penchant for maribou trimmed negligees, trashy literature and easy living.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 5, 2022 Full Review Nightmare Alley (1947) 88% “If the picture serves to expose racketeers in human emotions, it has accomplished something important. Certainly it is well done. But we hope Mr. Jessel goes back to his giddy musicals.” – San Francisco Examiner Dec 7, 2021 Full Review
