The Shop Around the Corner (1940) 99% EDIT “In The Shop Around the Corner one finds genuine entertainment. Here is Ernst Lubitsch at his best, exploiting the good hearts and little peculiarities of nice average people.” – The Nation Nov 8, 2022 Full Review His Girl Friday (1940) 99% EDIT “Rosalind Russell and Cary Grant give such entertaining performances that nobody in the roaring audience seems to notice the tastelessness, to say the least, of playing hide-and-seek with a man condemned to death.” – The Nation Oct 14, 2021 Full Review The Women (1939) 94% EDIT “The Women, after the stage hit by Clare Boothe, is a cheap affair -- smart, witty, but phony. Satire demands the sharpest truth, not merely wisecracks.” – The Nation May 24, 2021 Full Review Wuthering Heights (1939) 96% EDIT “The cast is faultless.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review Of Mice and Men (1939) 100% EDIT “On the indicated level a marvelous job of production, direction, and acting has been done.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review Jamaica Inn (1939) 54% EDIT “Jamaica Inn is a fraud perpetrated with great names.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review On Your Toes (1939) EDIT “A pleasant musical featuring the dancer Zorina, one of the most beautiful and most sympathetic members of her craft.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review The Great Dictator (1940) 92% EDIT “The only trouble is that such perfect scenes as this are followed by more conventional passages which would be funny enough in an average picture but let one down in a film that deals so ambitiously with so great a theme.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) 97% EDIT “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is so far the best Hollywood picture of the year. It is pleasant to be able to say this without if's and but's.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review Ninotchka (1939) 95% EDIT “This column has generally no quarrel with scene-to-scene entertainment, serving a legitimate demand for relaxation, though it adds up to nothing. But the entertaining gags of this picture add up to something, and it is not pleasant.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review The Light That Failed (1939) EDIT “It is unevenly told, but Ida Lupino, as the girl who destroys her own portrait, makes the picture worth seeing.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review Gone With the Wind (1939) 90% EDIT “The cast, in the main scenes as in the episodes, is excellent.” – The Nation Jan 18, 2013 Full Review The Grapes of Wrath (1940) 100% EDIT “The Grapes of Wrath is Hollywood's most distinguished offering.” – The Nation Jan 14, 2013 Full Review Fantasia (1940) 95% EDIT “I belong to those who had no need of that kind of entertainment, being content with seeing pictures and hearing music.” – The Nation Nov 27, 2012 Full Review
