"Marnie" is One of Alfred Hitchcock's Most Underrated Films: Review

Classic Film Review: "Marnie" (1964) If your list of favorite Alfred Hitchcock films does not include Marnie , you need to rethink your list. The 1964 film, adapted from the novel by Winston Graham, finds the Master of Suspense and his collaborators at the top of their game. Bernard Herrman's score is equal parts grand and hypnotic. Edith Head's costumes inform as much of Marnie's character as the script does. The production design is among the best in any Hitchcock film. It's a suspenseful psychodrama that allows Hitchcock to do what he does best. When it was originally released in July 1964, the film received mixed reviews from critics, ending a hot streak for Hitchcock that included North by Northwest, Pyscho, and The Birds . In the years since its initial release, Marnie has rightly become known as one of the films that best define Hitchcock's style. Tippi Hedren plays the titular Marnie, a thief who takes office jobs only to steal money from ...

"A Ghost Story" is Mysterious and Moving: Review

Film Review: A Ghost Story                                     Between   Personal Shopper  and David Lowery's A Ghost Story , 2017 has been a good year for thought-provoking ghost movies. Lowery's film is the stranger of the two, but still one of the most memorable movies in quite some time. It's an entrancing contemplation of love and loss, an exploration through time of what it means to be connected to a place, to a person.  Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck play an unnamed couple. We don't learn much about them, but we learn that they are in love. A heavy sense of dread pervades these early scenes of the film. Affleck's character dies and his ghost returns to his house to observe first Mara, then other occupants of the house and the land on which it sits. It has been said that when a person dies in a sudden traumatic way (like the car crash Affleck's character dies fr...

Flora The Red Menace: Ranking Kander & Ebb Musicals Part 1

  My new YouTube series examines the musical legacy of John Kander and Fred Ebb. Watch the video here, or, if you’d prefer, you can read my script for it below.  Over the next few months, I will be listening to the original Broadway cast album for the 15 musicals Kander & Ebb wrote together that have such a recording, one at a time, in chronological order, and ranking them.  So, why Kander & Ebb? I don’t know why the idea occurred to me, actually. I’m not really a Kander & Ebb guy. There are other composers who I rate more highly, and about half of these shows I have never listened to at all, but that’s what makes this an exciting journey of discovery.  I’m coming to them fresh. I have a few favorites, but I don’t know already what show is going to wind up on the top of my list. This’ll take us from 1965 to 2023, so we’ll be spanning the eras of the Broadway musical, and, of world history Unlike say, movies, it’s difficult to rank musicals because the...
