Joe (1970) 83% EDIT “A raw, tough movie of enormous power, with a riveting performance from Peter Boyle as the avenging devil.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review The People Next Door (1970) EDIT “Whatever value it has in encompassing the size of its awesome problem is pretty much negated by an ending which glibly suggests all would have been well if the girl bad been given a good hiding years before.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review I Never Sang for My Father (1970) 100% EDIT “At a time when the cinema is devoted to understanding the young, one can't but welcome a film that cares to bother about the old.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Something for Everyone (1970) 83% EDIT “Wickedly funny.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review A Town Called Hell (1971) EDIT “It does offer some gruesome action and a watchable cast.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review A Drama of Jealousy (1970) EDIT “It sounds routine, but strangely isn't.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Fools (1970) EDIT “You feel that a sharper, stronger film is buried under the debris.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Shaft (1971) 88% EDIT “A good, gutsy crime yarn in the 'forties style.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Please Sir! (1971) EDIT “I'm pleased to see they've managed to salve an enjoyable if not too quick-witted film, instead of just a collection of TV jokes, out of Please Sir!” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review The Last Run (1971) 50% EDIT “In any guise, George C. Scott is worth watching, though his performance here seems haunted by the same tedious resignation that atrophies the script.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Doc (1971) 50% EDIT “The net result is the grubbiest, dullest Western I've seen in at least two weeks.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Von Richthofen and Brown (1971) 56% EDIT “It must rank with the most impressive films ever made about the First World War.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Red Sky at Morning (1971) EDIT “All the right ingredients, only everything is overdone.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Andy Warhol's Trash (1970) 80% EDIT “Is it fair that Trash should be stigmatised, while the real trash -- the leery, glossied-up sexploitation movies -- gets by?” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review WR: The Mysteries of the Organism (1971) 87% EDIT “An outrageously funny and desperately serious examination of contemporary politico-sexual-psychological attitudes, drawn from the extreme theories of Dr. Wilhelm Reich, arguably the father of the permissive society.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Traffic (1971) 95% EDIT “Tati is that rare film-maker who remains triumphantly himself, unimpressed by current trends and moods.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review The Cremator (1969) 89% EDIT “A valuable moral, but it is hard to care about the destiny of characters who are depicted as freaks from the beginning. Stunning Peter Lorre-ish performance from Rudolf Hrusinsky, however.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Puppet on a Chain (1972) 67% EDIT “Speedy and silly, splendidly set in Amsterdam, with a chilling motorboat chase through the canals directed by Don Sharp.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Bombay Talkie (1970) EDIT “Although there is a fair amount of humour in it the fault, I believe, lies in Ivory's insistence on taking the postures of his characters as seriously as their problems.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Vanishing Point (1971) 65% EDIT “The film does whip up a genuine excitement and suspense. The director, Richard C. Sarafian, masterminds some gripping chase sequences, making good use of unknown actors and amateurs and a musical score that fits en route.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Making It (1971) 17% EDIT “As the 17-year-old Casanova, Kristoffer Tabori gives a performance that is smart and funny and even touching.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Big Jake (1971) 75% EDIT “Not only jolly exciting, it even manages to contrive a plot that keeps you guessing.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Diary of a Mad Housewife (1970) 82% EDIT “What invariably saves [Diary of a Mad Housewife] from banality is crisp scripting, deft direction and some delectable personality performances.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review EDIT “The film is a film of Godard making a film about the Black Power, anti-Vietnam, Young Protest, movement in America. But it is nowhere as deep or incisive as Godard's treatises on the French (modern) revolution, because... he hadn't the time to dig in.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review Escape From the Planet of the Apes (1971) 75% EDIT “it isn't really up to standard.” – Daily Telegraph (UK) Jun 8, 2020 Full Review
