Lonely Heart (1985)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Oct 13, 2024
Lonely Heart is a film bathed in the golden hues of nostalgia (“natsukashii” in Japanese). It also boasts a rural landscape with a topography that’s the utter antithesis of Tokyo’s urban skyline. This in itself already evokes a certain quaintness, regardless of the story bei read more

From the Archives: The Hasty Heart ( 1949 )
Silver Scenes - A Blog for Classic Film Lovers Posted by The Metzinger Sisters on Aug 10, 2021
Ronald Reagan was not only a great president but a great actor, too. His most recognized film is King's Row ( 1942 ) but we think The Hasty Heart ( 1949 ) ranks up there right along with it. Ronald gave a standout performance as a dying soldier in this wartime drama that also starred the beaut read more
Whisper of The Heart (1995): Take Me Home Concrete Road
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Feb 16, 2021
Whisper of The Heart is wholeheartedly a Japanese anime and yet learning John Denver’s “Country Roads” holds a relatively substantial place in the plotline might catch some off guard. After all, as the metropolitan imagery establishes our setting, we hear a version of the song play read more

Judex (1916, Louis Feuillade), Episode 10: Jacqueline’s Heart
The Stop Button Posted by Andrew Wickliffe on May 23, 2018
Jacqueline’s Heart is a very short episode. Nine minutes or so.

Overhearing Andréyor wish his sweet old man persona would show up, Cresté obliges. A note from read more

Music in My Heart (1940)
Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Jul 9, 2015
Rita Hayworth was a busy woman in 1940, starring in five films before year’s end and none of them particularly memorable. (In case you missed it, you can read my thoughts on one of her earlier 1940 performances, Angels Over Broadway, here.) I might have been too harsh in my assessment of yeste read more
