May films

All Repeat Viewings:


Summertime (1955) Kathryn Hepburn, Rosano Brazzi. Annual visit to beautiful Venice and the beautiful theme music set the tone of romance and longing. Perfect film for me. 10/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048673/

A Stolen Life (1946) Bette Davis, Glenn Ford, Dane Clark, Charles Ruggles, Walter Brennan, Bruce Bennett. A womans film written by women. Bette's most successful film up to that date. She plays twins, Kate and Patricia, both fall for Bill, and the one he chooses makes a drama. 9/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0038984/


In The Heat Of The Night (1967) Sidney Poitier, Rod Steiger, Warren Oates, Lee Grant. Good performances by all. 9/10    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061811/

Foul Play (1978) Goldy Hawn, Chevy Chase, Burgess Meredith, Dudley Moore. Dudley and Goldy are still screamingly funny to me, in their scenes together. Even Chevy is kinda romantic and sweet. 8/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077578/


Weekiend At Bernies (1989) Andrew McCarthy, Joel Silverman, Catherine Parks, Terry Kiser. Still laugh at Terry as Bernie. Can't help it. One of the all time best corpses. And Catherine as 'the girlfriend' being satisfied by Bernie is amazing. She plays it perfectly! 8/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098627/

Monte Carlo (2011) Background noise and the beautiful scenery. 5/10 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1067774/
