4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 9, 2014
As cliche as it will sound, this is one of those films that transcends the years for me. It is still that powerful after so many decades.

Ida (2013)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 7, 2014
At hardly an hour and 20 minutes, you would think Ida has very little to offer, but that just is not the truth whatsoever. Polish director Pawel Pawlikowski blessed us with a nuanced film full of power and strangely pleasing visuals. Its stark, yet crisp, black and white cinematography did not have read more

Murder, My Sweet (1944) – Updated
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 6, 2014
Ann Grayle: You know, I think you’re nuts. You go barging around without a very clear idea of what you’re doing. Everybody bats you down, smacks you over the head, fills you full of stuff…and you keep right on hitting between tackle and end. I don’t think you even know which read more

The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) – Updated
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 4, 2014
Without the inventiveness and lore that J.R.R. Tolkien created in his books, there would never be something as visceral and grand in scope as The Lord of the Rings. However, it is a vibrant mythology that Peter Jackson breathed life into, and it becomes evident in the opening minutes of the Fellowsh read more
The Big Combo (1955)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Dec 4, 2014
There is so much to the plot of The Big Combo, but the irony is that the story is not altogether extraordinary. Instead highlights include David Raksin’s (Laura) jazzy score infused with brass which is somewhat unusual for the genre. Cinematographer John Alton also helped in making this film v read more
