Paris, Texas (1984) 95% EDIT “Though Paris, Texas is the most interesting American film I've seen all year, it is finally not a success.” – The New York Review of Books Jun 18, 2018 Full Review Nashville (1975) 89% EDIT “Since the protagonists are mostly the performers themselves, and since, by and large, they seemed to me to be nothing but slick hillbilly narcissists, I found it difficult to become interested in their various plights.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review Harold and Maude (1971) 86% EDIT “A philosophical black comedy for grandparents and grandchildren, or what Walt Disney and Lucille Ball might have thought up if they'd taken courses in the Absurd at UCLA.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review The Little Theatre of Jean Renoir (1970) EDIT “Sadly enough, he appears to be suffering an attack of self-congratulatory humanity.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review Ciao! Manhattan (1973) 60% EDIT “Alternately garrulous, sparse, nave, sardonic, clumsy, clever, intolerably sad, rawly funny.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review I.F. Stone's Weekly (1973) EDIT “How refreshing is this amiable little ramble among Washington iniquity.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review Mean Streets (1973) 92% EDIT “As full as it is of a crushing, unconsoling force, I thought the relations between the protagonists, after a certain point, symbolically elusive and psychologically flimsy.” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review The All-American Boy (1973) EDIT “If the film is satiric, in its deadpan way, about "the manly arts," it often generates the contrary feeling of a dirge...” – The New York Review of Books Apr 4, 2018 Full Review Save the Tiger (1973) 88% EDIT “In the phony moral quagmire of Save the Tiger Jack Lemmon tugs at our heart strings while never letting go of his purse strings ...” – The New York Review of Books Mar 22, 2018 Full Review Ludwig (1973) 33% EDIT “An unconscious parody of Visconti's own embattled romanticism, a diatribe against "privileged liberty," an old morality play in which the free soul is the damned soul-a dyspeptic Visconti, as it were, lecturing himself.” – The New York Review of Books Mar 22, 2018 Full Review Brother Sun, Sister Moon (1973) 42% EDIT “Faulkner, a winsome newcomer who could probably have been much happier as one of the Monkees, presents the young Francis as a sort of super-straight who returns home from the horrors of the Crusades a disillusioned anti-establishmentarian seeking answers.” – The New York Review of Books Mar 22, 2018 Full Review Topaz (1969) 68% EDIT “Good, but a bit grim, and when not that, a bit glossy ...” – The New York Review of Books Mar 14, 2018 Full Review Alphaville (1965) 92% EDIT “Always something strangely individualistic, utterly contemporary, and yet for all that, riddled with dj vu, cultural echo chambers, a kind of deliberately outmoded sleight-of-hand.” – The New York Review of Books Mar 13, 2018 Full Review The Great Gatsby (1974) 41% EDIT “The folly of the film, lies, I think, in the damage done to the character of the narrator.” – The New York Review of Books Mar 2, 2018 Full Review
