The Ghost Breakers (1940)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jan 6, 2015
You have two great leads in Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard for this horror comedy film. It is not the best film of either of them by a long shot and it is not much to write home about but if you like the stars you will probably get some laughs out of this one. It is a dark and stormy night in Manhatt read more
What About Bob? (1991)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jan 3, 2015
I was not sure I would like this film because honestly Bill Murray is not usually one of my favorite actors. However, his portrayal of Bob Wiley, a man with every phobia imaginable, is maybe his most lovable. True, he is annoying and neurotic, but he means well. In many respects he reminds me of Jim read more

Bananas (1971)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Jan 2, 2015
In the vast realm of Woody Allen films Bananas feels more like Take the Money and Run (1969) with its zany comedy than his later films which often take on a more somber and philosophical note. A South American assassination with play-by-play commentary by Howard Cosell is the epitome of this film read more

Auntie Mame (1958)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 31, 2014
With Rosalind Russell reprising her role from the stage, this film is made by her scene stealing portrayal. The film opens when a rich man dies suddenly and his young son is sent to live with his Auntie Mame. She is a social, energetic and free-spirited woman.

Amadeus (1984)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 31, 2014
A common film would content itself with developing a biopic on one of the greatest composers of all time reaching the heights of the musical field in the musical capital of the world in Vienna. A typical film might paint on a canvas paying homage to a legend who revolutionized music with his genius. read more

Kramer vs. Kramer (1979)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 30, 2014
The title Kramer vs. Kramer brings to mind a film about two people, formerly married, fighting over their kid who is stuck in the middle of their feud. It has the potential for high drama and tense courtroom scenes full of malice and bitter resentment. Sounds like a real winner. Don’t get me w read more

Most every Tom, Dick and Harry has heard of the great Russian epic War and Peace. Love and Death is Woody Allen’s companion piece. It has nods to Tolstoy, Dostoevysky and channels a bit of the Marx Brothers. As one would expect, Boris aka Woody Allen comes from your typical Russian family wher read more

Hondo (1953)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 26, 2014
In many ways Hondo feels a lot like Shane since it came out the same year and follows a wandering gunslinger who comes in contact with a frontier family. The story based off the novel by famed western writer Louis L’Amour is a lesser addition to the Western canon, but its hard to complain abou read more
