Blonde Venus (1932) 71% EDIT “Dietrich never performed better, and "Blonde Venus"...is really an attraction.” – Austin American-Statesman Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Camille (1936) 96% EDIT “Camille is magnificently produced... with a generous supporting cast. ” – Austin American-Statesman Feb 4, 2026 Full Review The Bitter Tea of General Yen (1933) 86% EDIT “Anyone who can enjoy love, battle, heart chills and hate in a picture, will like this one.” – Austin American-Statesman Apr 24, 2023 Full Review The Lady Eve (1941) 99% EDIT “The Lady Eve is Sturges' third creation and conclusively marks Sturges as a top-flight master in light, ingratiating, clever comedy.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 29, 2022 Full Review Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) 97% EDIT “Much has been said and written about some of the more frightening sequences and their probable effect on young children. I can't pose any great knowledge of child psychology, but I know I'd hate to see them miss Snow White.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 21, 2022 Full Review The Maltese Falcon (1941) 99% EDIT “When Mr. Greenstreet speaks, you are in for a treat. ” – Austin American-Statesman Nov 11, 2022 Full Review Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) 97% EDIT “I submit Mr. Smith Goes to Washington as the best bracer democracy has had in this land in many a moon.” – Austin American-Statesman Nov 9, 2022 Full Review The Shop Around the Corner (1940) 99% EDIT “Shop Around the Corner demonstrates how feather-weight material can be deftly handled for the best effects. It is excellently done.” – Austin American-Statesman Nov 8, 2022 Full Review The President's Mystery (1936) 80% EDIT “It all adds up to a topical mystery that may snare a lot of public interest at this time with entertainment qualities about average.” – Austin American-Statesman Oct 25, 2022 Full Review The Life of Emile Zola (1937) 92% EDIT “Should there be any doubt about Hollywood's greatest actor, Mr. Muni stifles such quibbling with his human, dignified, honest portrayal of the French novelist.” – Austin American-Statesman Aug 3, 2022 Full Review How Green Was My Valley (1941) 93% EDIT “Young Roddy McDowall is a lad of inestimable charm as Huw. Wide-eyed, sensitive, he is just the boy for the part. The cast is an altogether worthy one.” – Austin American-Statesman Jul 26, 2022 Full Review Mrs. Miniver (1942) 93% EDIT “Greer Garson, whose playing is superb, is the central character, but this is more nearly a picture of ensemble playing than one of stars.” – Austin American-Statesman Jan 5, 2022 Full Review The Great Ziegfeld (1936) 72% EDIT “For the greater part, The Great Ziegfeld is sentiment; for the remainder, spectacle. It is an unbeatable combination and MGM has seen fit to give it a more substantial claim in good casting.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 3, 2021 Full Review The Wizard of Oz (1939) 98% EDIT “If The Wizard of Oz, taken from the American fairy story by Frank Baum, carries to its adult audience the theme of conquest of fear, it could scarcely have been released to the world at a more propitious hour.” – Austin American-Statesman Oct 14, 2021 Full Review His Girl Friday (1940) 99% EDIT “Miss Russell's lively interpretation is good and the repartee between her and Cary Grant fun.” – Austin American-Statesman Oct 14, 2021 Full Review The Philadelphia Story (1940) 100% EDIT “Story unquestionably will woo the Hepburn fans back into the moviehouses. It is a blue-ribbon, A-1 film, the first smash comedy success of 1941.” – Austin American-Statesman Jun 10, 2021 Full Review The Women (1939) 94% EDIT “The Women fairly bristles with rapid-fire dialogue. Get your ears tuned to keep up with the pace or some of it will fly by in the rush.” – Austin American-Statesman May 25, 2021 Full Review Rebecca (1940) 98% EDIT “In her first starring role Miss Fontaine achieves greatness. Laurence Olivier plays the part of de Winter with quiet sureness. Not always symphathetic in the earlier passages, his is a difficult task. Yet he is skilled and true in his interpretation.” – Austin American-Statesman Apr 12, 2021 Full Review Citizen Kane (1941) 99% EDIT “Whether the story of Charles Foster Kane is a biography of one man or a composite of many, as Orson Welles claims, matters not so much as the fact that here we have a completely new approach to film biography.” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 2, 2021 Full Review
