A CHRISTMAS CAROL with Alestar Sim as Scrooge is the best Dickens adaptation and , I think, the best of the retellings of this classic story.
PSYCHO is ,basically, a slasher movie, but so well-written and directed that what would be gratuitous violence in the ‘80s(which even had a remake as well as sequels to this movie) comes off here as a study in madness.
PLANET OF THE APES is ,in the first rendition of this novel-based movie, clever, well-conceived and brilliant . The ending is a classic! The impact of that one scene, especially given the fact that a lingering fear of just such a thing was something we lived with constantly, makes this the best telling of what probably was more of a sci-fi fable than anything else.
WHAT A WAY TO GO not only highlights the star’s many talents, but also features some of the top male leads of the era. Just a lot of fun from beginning to end!
IT’S A MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD is a romp! Featuring the mid- ‘60s funniest comedians, this hilarious comedy adds, of all people, Spencer Tracey into the mix! What’s not to like?
