The Flame and The Arrow (1950): Italy’s Acrobatic Robin Hood
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jul 18, 2019
In the region of Italy called Lombardy, Dardo Bartoli (Burt Lancaster) is a bit of an Italian Robin Hood. However, his acclaim as an outlaw is brought on by personal conviction and a blatant disregard for authority. Others are captivated by his lionhearted bravado and fearlessness that, even as a p read more

THE FLAME WITHIN
CineMaven's Essays from the Couch Posted by Theresa Brown on Jun 14, 2015
I’ve got a twisted pretzel in “THE FLAME WITHIN.” In this film, Harding does not want to marry. Big deal you say? Yeah, me too. But this is the 30’s and every woman wants to be married. Or NEEDS to be married. In fact it’s like there’s some kinda Law on the books that read more
Keeper of the Flame (1942) – The Great Katharine Hepburn Blogathon
The Motion Pictures Posted by Lindsey on May 9, 2015
Last year, when Margaret Perry approached me about taking part in The Great Katharine Hepburn Blogathon, I jumped at the chance to take a second look at The Rainmaker, a KH film that I’d been eager to re-watch after first discovering/reviewing it in 2012.

Classic Films in Focus: THE FLAME AND THE ARROW (1950)
Virtual Virago Posted by Jennifer Garlen on Nov 21, 2013
All of the classic swashbuckling stars had good looks and charm, but few, if any, could rival Burt Lancaster for sheer physical prowess. Lancaster earned his Oscar nominations and Best Actor win for dramas, but early in his career he put his background as a circus acrobat to good use in a handful of read more

The Flame of New Orleans (1941)
Journeys in Classic Film Posted by on Jul 18, 2013
The Flame of New Orléans isn’t a flame, more of a crackle. Despite the presence of Dietrich and I Married a Witch director Rene Clair, the formulaic plot is funny but muted by a dull script and two bland leading men. Dietrich returns to her trademark snap, and Clair’s views of New Orlé read more
The Spark That Lit The Flame
A Person in the Dark Posted by FlickChick on Jul 2, 2012
I've been doing some amateur time-line therapy on my movie obsessions lately, trying to work backwards to find the sparks that lit the flames that grew from interest to obsession (in a good way, of course). It could have been a photo, a TV show or even a movie that started me on one of my many journ read more

Keeper of the Flame
MacGuffin Movies Posted by RBuccicone on Aug 8, 2011
Keeper of the Flame (1942) In 1942, audiences going to see a Spencer Tracy-Katharine Hepburn movie surely expected to encounter some on-screen romance, but although Keeper of the Flame denied movie-goers of those light-hearted dramatics, it did pack a wallop otherwise. The movie had traces read more
