Teresa Wright: Unassuming Star of the 1940s

The Bad News Bears (1976)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 1, 2014

The Bad News Bears is the quintessential sports movies about a rag tag group of misfits and losers. If there was ever a worthy heir to Charlie Brown’s club it was these fellows, but that’s not the end of it. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and the Bears pick up the slack after numerous read more

On The Waterfront (1954) – Updated

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 31, 2014

“They always said I was a bum, well I ain’t a bum Edie.” That is what washed up prize fighter Terry Malloy (Marlon Brando) must try and prove to himself and others for the entirety of this crime-drama. On the Waterfront is ultimately his story of conscience and redemption that we w read more

The Mating Season (1951)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 29, 2014

Thelma Ritter was always a scene-stealer, upstaging the stars, but perhaps it is no more evident than in this comedy starring Gene Tierney, John Lund and Miriam Hopkins. She runs a hamburger stand in New Jersey, talks plain, and works hard. Her son Val McNulty is a college graduate and a kind, gentl read more

Ten Films to Keep an Eye on in 2014!

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 28, 2014

I could have made one of these lists to open this year, but in all honesty it seemed unnecessary. If you really want to get down to the nitty-gritty, the films that could potentially be up for Oscar contention, you wait until the end of the year. Now as the summer months start waning, the big blockb read more

12 Angry Men (1957) – Updated

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 28, 2014

With a title like 12 Angry Men you might come away with the false idea that all the characters in this film are the same, emotionally and otherwise. That is far from the truth. The reason a film like this stands up even today is because the fellows who sit down around that table are everymen that ea read more

Something’s Got to Give (1962)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 27, 2014

Well, this is a first for me, if my memory serves me right. I have yet to do a write up for a film without having a rating to go with it. Something’s Got to Give eventually and now it has. I honestly was surprised that this “film” even existed. I knew about Marilyn Monroe’s l read more

Once Upon a Time in the West (1968)

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 25, 2014

Starring Charles Bronson, Henry Fonda, Claudia Cardinale, and Jason Robards with director Sergio Leone, this is another memorable Italian western. The film follows a recently widowed beauty (Cardinale), the villainous killer who is after her (Fonda), a anti-hero bandit (Robards), and of course the m read more

Wait Until Dark (1967) – Updated

4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Aug 24, 2014

This is very much a contrived plot line but it certainly is an interesting set piece surrounding a defenseless blind woman targeted because of a heroin-filled doll which fell into her husband’s possession. It sounds like a pretty ludicrous set up but Audrey Hepburn is so believable and at time read more
