THE DEVIL COMMANDS ( 1941 )
CineMaven's Essays from the Couch Posted by Theresa Brown on Aug 26, 2016
It’s so hard for me sometimes to explain exactly why I love these ‘old’ movies as I do. I have such a visceral and emotional response to these shimmering ( or murky ) B&W films whether they be “A” pictures or “B” that it’s hard to explain intellectually. Maybe words aren’t read more
Sullivan’s Travels (1941, Preston Sturges)
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on Aug 2, 2016
Sullivan’s Travels is almost impossibly well-constructed. Director Sturges, editor Stuart Gilmore and photographer John F. Seitz go through various, entirely different narrative devices and do them all perfectly. Whether it’s a high speed chase, Veronica Lake having a screwball comedy s read more

Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Jun 24, 2016
Our farewell to the month of all things Miranda sees a few other exits as well. After starting out with The Gang’s All Here (1943) which had lost its prime star, Don Ameche, we conclude with our first Ameche pairing with Alice Faye…which was also their last film together. Are you confuse read more

Swamp Water (1941) with Walter Huston and Walter Brennan
Classic Film Freak Posted by Orson De Welles on Mar 17, 2016
Share This!1941’s Swamp Water is a great example of the product not coming as advertised. From the title and the promotional materials, including the theatrical poster, you’d think this is a typically substandard B-grade horror picture. Granted, those sometimes schlocky horror pictures can be read more
