The Henry Fonda Collection: The Longest Day (1962), The Grapes of Wrath (1940) & Overall Thoughts – Father’s Day Gift Guide
Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Jun 4, 2013
The Longest Day is a three-hour opus following all the events leading up to and in execution of D-Day. This 1962 docudrama has the distinction of being the most expensive black and white film made at the time (it would be ousted by Schindler’s List). At a diffuse three-hours the title isn read more

Another trio of reviews from The Henry Fonda Collection. In this segment we’ll look at a western, a quasi-noir with romantic overtones, and a crime procedural. Daisy Kenyon (Joan Crawford) is a forward thinking career-woman who can’t seem to pick the right mate. Mired in a relationshi read more

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on May 31, 2013
This review and the next will be late as I try to cram in three reviews (and the movies are getting longer). With that, this series has two fast-paced Westerns worth watching, and one lackluster sequel. Jesse James (Tyrone Power) and his brother, Frank (Fonda) are forced into banditry after their read more

As part of my Father’s Day Guide, I’m reviewing the entire Henry Fonda Collection box-set. In the interest of time, I will be combining reviews in twos or threes before reviewing the set overall. My first two reviews from 20th Century Fox‘s Henry Fonda collection comprise the bes read more

Henry Fonda calling his agent after
appearing in Tentacles.
Kirk Douglas did it. Ditto for Walter Pidgeon. Even John Wayne and Ray Milland got into the act. Yes, we're talking about fighting giant octopuses and squids. So, there's nothing unusual about Henry Fonda, Shelley Winters, and John Huston read more

True Classics Posted by Brandie on Aug 28, 2010
