Richard Widmark

Ida Lupino, Cornel Wilde

20th Century Fox, 2008

I loved Ida Lupino
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Ida Lupino was a revelation of inner strength and beauty. What would this movie be without Richard Widmark? For that matter, what would many movies be without him? Can we say boring together. Richard Widmark is always priceless. The ...

A Film for All Seasons
Written by Abby Mann, directed by Stanley Kramer, "Judgment at Nuremberg" is one of those rare movies that keeps you in its clutches for a very short three hours. Set in 1948 this 1961 film covers the Nuremberg trials when judges were put on trial for their decisions ...

The Alamo

Carlos Arruza, Frankie Avalon

MGM (Video & DVD), 2000

The greatest film of all time
It is the greatest, period. Let's start by dispensing with criticism it is historically inaccurate. This is about the legend of the Alamo. It is not a PBS documentary. So as another reviewer has said, let's move on. Now back to the Alamo. Great stars (50s giants ...

Yellow Sky

Gregory Peck, Anne Baxter

20th Century Fox, 2006

One of the greats!
I do not know how I ever missed this movie, being the movie buff that I am. Gregory Peck and Richard Widmark were great. Gregory Peck was such a magnificent actor, and you add to that the the talents of Richard Widmark, with his trademark smile and laugh, along with ...

Kiss of Death (Fox Film Noir)

Victor Mature, Brian Donlevy

20th Century Fox, 2005

Was the "Wheelchair giggle" scene cut?
This film is terrific, and the video transfer is great. But I have a question for anyone who can answer. I have a distinct recollection from many many years ago when I last saw this film, that when Richard Widmark pushes Mildred Dunnock down the stairs in a ...

How the West Was Won (Three-Disc Special Edition)

Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express

Albert Finney, Lauren Bacall

Paramount, 2004

A Visually Beautiful, Clever, Well-Acted, and Faithful Adaptation
MURDER ON THE ORIENT EXPRESS is an impressive movie. Well-acted, beautifully shot and lit, and with a sharp tongued script and stunning sets, it is a masterpiece, much like the genius book by Agatha Christie is considered today. The story follows detective Hercule ...

Excellent Service
This vendor provided excellent prompt service at a very reasonable price. I recommend it.

Coma

Geneviève Bujold, Michael Douglas

Good suspense thriller
Good suspense thriller that demonstrates that you do not need a megabudget of special effexts to make a good movie

Panic in the Streets (Fox Film Noir)

Barbara Bel Geddes, Beverly C. Brown

20th Century Fox, 2005

THE BEST!
The obvious plot-line is the plague in New Orleans. But, I have always seen it as a sweet love affair between characters of Barbara and Richard. Irrespective of the 'Panic in the Streets,' life goes on! The cast is superb; Walter Jack PALANCE is the epitome of the ...

The Long Ships

Richard Widmark, Sidney Poitier

Sony Pictures, 2003

The Mother of all Voices
Like others I saw this film when I was a kid. Watching it now I still have the sense of fun I did when I was about ten. I'm not blind to it's faults. I love Richard Widmark but a Viking? It's a stretch to say the least. At least he doesn't have that sick Tommy Udo ...

The Law and Jake Wade

Robert Taylor, Richard Widmark

Warner Home Video, 2008

THE LAW OF A GREAT SCRIPT AND GOOD ACTING
The source of this very good film released through MGM on June 6, 1958, was a book written by the incomparable Marvin H. Albert. Mr. Albert has written many westerns (Clayburns) and mysteries (Lady In Cement), with many brought to film (Duel At Diablo & Tony Rome), ...
