The moment Jefferson Smith steps out onto the Senate Floor to take his final stand against the opposition gives me, to this very day, some small amount of solace in a world of corrupt business and dirty politics. Guided by Frank Capra‘s humanism and anchored by a career-altering turn by Jimmy Stewart, it’s hard to consider a more emblematic picture...
What is American cinema without Dorothy’s Red Shoes, Toto, Oz, and The Wicked Witch of The West? They are so much a part of the fabric of our cultural identity. This adventure whirling Judy Garlandaway to a fanciful Technicolor world, complete with yellow brick roads and flying monkeys, puts no limit on imagination. What strikes me is the integral ...
As the years pass, it’s easy to get more and more disillusioned with the issues this monumental Civil War epic exhumes given our ignominious past with slavery and racial prejudice toward African-Americans. However, even within this complicated dialogue, there’s no downplaying the cultural clout of such screen stars as Scarlet O’Hara (Vivien Leigh) ...
Among many discerning voices, Jean Renoiris named one of the greatest filmmakers of all time and though vehemently maligned in its time — a society on the verge of war wasn’t ready for satire — the French master’s upstairs-downstairs comedy seamlessly showcases his immense talents. There is not only an innate love of people present, even as he poke...
It’s fitting to follow one painterly master with another asJohn Ford did with the American West what Renoir did with the Parisian countryside. Not only did this unassuming western make a true star out of John Wayne, it all but propelled the scoffed at sagebrush genre into a position of newfound significance. Stagecoach functions as a cross-country ...
Howard Hawks might be more well-known for other pictures, but few projects tap into his own passions quite like this South American-set adventure drama about aviation. Cary Grant and Jean Arthur drum up the complicated chemistry in a world of harrowing danger where lives are seemingly won and lost at the flip of a coin. The dismissed silent star Ri...
In an industry so often dominated by men, this uproarious all-star comedy loaded with verbal poison and catty claws is something of a marvel. The cast is sublime, stacked with a who’s who of ’30s era talent including Norma Shearer and Joan Crawford dueling for the affections of the former’s unseen husband. But the ensemble, directed byGeorge Cukor,...
We’re used to grandiose cradle-to-grave biopics. Leave it to John Ford to take the pre-presidential days of Abraham Lincoln and make it another fine meditation on the American Way. Of course, more than anything, it benefits from the always steady, ever dependable work of Henry Fonda who falls into Honest Abe’s shoes seamlessly. Not by trying to mim...
While never as acclaimed as his countryman Renoir, Michel Carne was still a prominent force behind the poetic realism movement. This smoke-infused picture uses its opening as a shocking hook only to funnel into an extended flashback. Somewhere between Spencer Tracy and Humphrey Bogart stands Jean Gabin. He comes equipped with his own substantial st...
Of the foremost Japanese masters, Kenji Mizoguchican most easily be tied to the traditional Japanese art forms. This early work is a fascinating portrait because it bears some of the trademarks which would all but define his career at its most sublime. His glorious tracking shots unfurling like ancient Japanese scroll paintings. Then the meticulous...
