The Shop Around the Corner (1940) |
It is told in such a way as to warm the cockles of the heart and send the audience away from the theatre the better for having been permitted this intimate glimpse into the lives and loves of the personnel of the Matuschek store in Budapest. - New York Daily News

Java Head (1934) |
[Java Head is] able to capture something of the atmosphere that must have pervaded old Bristol in the early part of the Nineteenth Century in [its] settings and backgrounds. The story, however, is moved through the film at too leisurely a pace. - New York Daily News

Nightmare Alley (1947) |
Although Nightmare Alley has been given a substantial production background by 20th Century-Fox, excellent direction by Edmund Goulding and competent acting by its cast, the story of the charlatan is too unpleasant warrant a hearty endorsement. - New York Daily News

His Girl Friday (1940) |
The picture is a blessed relief from most of the solemn and oppressively sad stories that have been occupying New York screens since before the holidays, and it moves Rosalind Russell to the very top of the roster of Hollywood's cleverest comediennes. - New York Daily News
