Strangers When We Meet (1960)
6.5/10
“Adult drama in the style of Douglas Sirk, mostly believable (except for Matthau's action at the end) but lacks the poetic quality that elevated Sirk's best works.” –

5.5/10
“This early epic Italian silent feels choppy, most likely the result of missing so many scenes to the ravages of time. As a result, the story is hard to follow, and there aren't even identifiable characters. Some nifty set-pieces impressed me with their sc” –

“Books are awesome. That's the primary theme of Mark Moskowitz's documentary about his quest to track down the author of Stones of the Summer, a book he loved when he read it in 1972. Within that umbrella theme Moskowitz explores why first-time authors of” –

“Julie Christie won Best Actress and Frederic Raphael Best Screenplay, but I was most impressed with Dirk Bogarde as the spurned lover in John Schelsinger's morality fable about a modern girl's implacable vacuousness.” –

“Lesser known and underappreciated Sam Peckinpah film starring Steve McQueen. It's a quiet character-driven story about an aging rodeo star who visits his family on one of his stops. There's little of the characteristic Peckinpah violence, but the theme of” –

“A lesser effort from Anthony Mann, with a rudimentary plot but striking cinematography from John Alton. It's a movie where the hero is only less evil than the villains, and it's downbeat, dark, and low-budget. The bare-bones plot is strictly a means to vi” –
