Cinematic Catharsis Posted by Barry P. on Mar 6, 2012
I admit it; I love Netflix. I enjoy the convenience of browsing movies at any hour of the day or night, and having them sent directly to my home or streaming on my TV. Even when they made dumb decisions like the Qwikster debacle, or broke out streaming and disc rentals into separa read more

Movie Classics Posted by Judy on Jan 23, 2012
Carrying on with my series where I pick five films which have some kind of loose thematic connection – not necessarily the best or even my favourites, but five which interest me. Anyway, films about films seem to be my theme of the moment, as I’ve recently written postings about The Arti read more

Five Things I Learned From Farley Granger’s Autobiography
Classic Movies Posted by KC on Jul 12, 2011
I have liked Farley Granger since I first saw him freaking out in his role as a young killer in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rope (1948). When he died earlier this year, I was surprised to realize how little I knew about him. In order to remedy this, I picked up a copy of his 2007 autobiography, Include read more

Critica Retro Posted by Lê on Jul 17, 2010
Top Five – Excelentes traduções de títulos Alô, colegas! De fato, não é fácil traduzir um texto, uma expressão e, em especial, um título de filme. Muitas vezes são dadas expressões cotidianas e gírias norte-americanas, ou nomes simplórios demais às produções. Qual não deve read more
Five Easy Pieces
The Best Picture Project Posted by Alyson on Apr 1, 2010
Robert, or Bobby to most, seems like your average blue collar drifter. He works the oil fields, hangs out at the bowling alley, in his friend’s trailer and with his white trash girlfriend. He’s rough talking, sarcastic and doesn’t seem to respect anyone. You’d never imagine a guy like read more
Review: Five Came Back (1939)
Noir and Chick Flicks Posted by monty on Feb 22, 2010
Another great film from that golden year of 1939 that got overshadowed by the big guns of Gone with the Wind, Mr. Smith Goes To Washington, The Wizard of Oz and others. But this little taut thriller is really good and deserves to be on that list of 1939's best films. Twelve people are aboard Coast read more

Oh, that Marie! She'd do anything to steal a scene - even if means going all polychrome.Seriously, wouldn't it have been fabulous if these ladies had done a picture together?

Five Easy Pieces (1970, Bob Rafelson)
The Stop Button Posted by on Feb 24, 2009
About half way into Five Easy Pieces, the film really hasn’t given any clue as to what it’s going to be. It’s an incredibly complex character study, both in its approach to the narrative and in terms of Jack Nicholson’s protagonist. The beginning of the film, set in the oil read more
