Steve Forrest wasn’t a favorite actor of mine, but he did do several movies and TV shows that I liked, which balanced all the performances I didn’t like of his. This movie, The Hanged Man from 1974, is somewhat in the middle.

In 1958, Clark Gable and Doris Day starred in Teacher’s Pet. Now, I adore Teacher’s Pet, and Gable and Day are wonderful, together and individually. Still, it’s another time when I go, ‘Huh?’ at the casting. Gable was 20 years Day’s senior. In a way, it …

Thunderball with Sean Connery and Claudine Auger.
This is one of the earlier James Bond sequels and therefore features the super handsome Sean Connery in the lead. It does lack some of the refined touched that we came to enjoy in the newer sequels such as …

Back to basics. This film was shot entirely in black and white, reminiscient of the old days of film-making, before special effects or computer graphics. Risky, but it proved brilliant. The lack of digital enterntainment required the actors to step up to the plate, and they did so much …

When I rented the movie “The Changeling”, I did so because it was directed by Clint Eastwood, and I really enjoy the movies he directs. The subject matter, a mother whose young son disappears, is gut-wrenching, so I didn’t expect a light or enjoyable experience. It was based on …
