The Killers (1946)
This film is one of the greatest examples of film...
This film is one of the greatest examples of film noir. I'm sure the sreenwriter and director of every mystery since has studied this film. I recently saw Bound and I couldn't help but to be reminded of the Killers. Ava Gardner was great but none of her later films ever gave her a part as challenging as "Kitty" in the "KILLERS". Of course Burt Lancaster was perfect as the doomed Oleo.
The Unknown (1927)
If you thought you couldn't enjoy watching a silent film you are wrong
I was raised watching films for the "Golden Age of Film" the thirty's, 40's and fifty's on television.My exposure to this film has convinced me that the true golden age was before the advent of sound. Mr Chaney acting and developing the plot of this film without the use of dialogue was truly remarkable he also invoked a sense of terror and impeding doom with special effects and cut a away camera angles anyone who enjoys great acting must see this film I am hooked on silent films. It was also interesting to see the extremely young Ms Crawford in a different type of role than those who love her later work have come to love.
