National Velvet (1944) 98% “Acting honors to little Elizabeth Taylor, looking like a miniature Jennifer Jones, and Mickey Rooney savagely wooden for this high-spirited young man.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Mar 26, 2024 Full Review Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) 99% “In a sense the film could have been taken from your own plush covered family album.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Nov 10, 2022 Full Review Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) 97% “It is as bold a venture as the screen has launched in years; a pointed and direct attack on graft in the Senate. Although it is true 'Americana' it is a project we should praise delightedly, not merely for its purpose, but for its value as entertainment.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Nov 9, 2022 Full Review The Shop Around the Corner (1940) 99% “What is known as "the Lubitsch touch" -- a mixture of whims, and sparkling comedy -- is apparent in The Shop Around the Corner. Underlying the froth and bubble, however, is a romantic theme of heart throbs and pulse beats.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Nov 7, 2022 Full Review Cobra Woman (1944) 73% “The fangs of Cobra Woman are blunt, due I think to the familiarity of the cast that played about in White Savage and Arabian Nights. Like these others it is almost, but not quite, as indistinguishable as a couple of two-up pennies. ” – Courier Mail (Australia) Sep 20, 2022 Full Review Nightmare Alley (1947) 88% “A picture about side-show life in America, with its rackets and ramps, and its extraordinary characters, the whole thing is cut well away from the groove.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Dec 3, 2021 Full Review Leave Her to Heaven (1945) 85% “I like a little mirth with my murders in films, but the mayheim in Leave Her to Heaven is so morbid that not even glorious technicolour can atone.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Sep 29, 2021 Full Review Gun Crazy (1950) 91% “Pace throughout is of the hand-gallop order, and there is a hard and brittle gloss to the whole thing.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Sep 14, 2021 Full Review The Wizard of Oz (1939) 98% “It is, of course, a "must" for the juveniles, and they will have a high old time. This is a real fairy tale, brought to the screen with all the trappings, colour, and wondrous charm of the printed word that has kept many a youngster late for dinner.” – Courier Mail (Australia) May 3, 2021 Full Review Intruder in the Dust (1949) 93% “It's a fine film, made so by the unerringly excellent performance of an apt and able cast, under the direction of Clarence Brown.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Jan 28, 2021 Full Review Home of the Brave (1949) 98% “[The] performances and pungent dialogue make it hard to imagine a better, or more rewarding film on racial prejudice.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Nov 17, 2020 Full Review The Invisible Man Returns (1940) 87% “Vincent Price, in his appearances and disappearances, handles his part with rare skill.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Oct 16, 2020 Full Review Zanzibar (1940) 67% “Snarling beasts, fighting, clawing, and scratching, crowd the jungle landscapes, and 'rip-roaring' is the only adjective I can think of to describe these sequences.” – Courier Mail (Australia) May 4, 2020 Full Review The Lady Eve (1941) 99% “It is one of the neatest comedies the screen has offered in a long time, both from the point of view of originality in theme and performance.” – Courier Mail (Australia) May 2, 2020 Full Review I Want a Divorce (1940) 75% “Joan Blondell and Dick Powell, 'Hollywood's happiest married couple,' are responsible for the brightness.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 27, 2020 Full Review To Each His Own (1946) 81% “Strong acting studies by a select cast help to burnish and polish what at heart Is really (1) first rate escapist fare; (2) an inspirer of tear.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 21, 2020 Full Review Lady on a Train (1945) 71% “[Durban's] 'fans' -- and they are many -- should respond with breathless infatuation.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 21, 2020 Full Review Winchester '73 (1950) 100% “The film is pretty much a standard Western. It is also, like most of its kind, a pleasant means of passing an hour and a half in air-conditioned comfort.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 15, 2020 Full Review Wyoming Mail (1950) 86% “It's cops-and-robbers stuff in the U.S. post Civil War days, and where the film really shines is in its virility, and good acting performances.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 15, 2020 Full Review His Girl Friday (1940) 99% “As motion picture entertainment of the bright and sparkling order, His Girl Friday is recommended without reservation.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Apr 3, 2020 Full Review Born Yesterday (1950) 97% “[Judy Holliday] shines brightly. Her squeaky voice, her strutting, and her romantic ideas combine to make quite a character.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Mar 23, 2020 Full Review The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) 98% “Chalk up full marks for the superb acting of Fredric March, Teresa Wright, Myrna Loy, Dana Andrews, and Virginia Mayo.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Feb 6, 2020 Full Review Gone With the Wind (1939) 90% “Miss Mitchell used 475,000 words to tell her story. Three hours 45 minutes is not a second too long in which to recount it in the film transcription.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Feb 5, 2020 Full Review All About Eve (1950) 99% “In the role of the elder actress, Bette Davis plays with a brilliance that not only is the best acting she has shown us, but just about the best that has been done on the screen.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Feb 5, 2020 Full Review Going My Way (1944) 85% “The film is excellent in every way -- acting, production, and evangelical outlook.” – Courier Mail (Australia) Feb 5, 2020 Full Review
