Jackie Gleason spent most of the 1970s appearing in pale television retreads of his 1950s heyday, and for most of that time he was absent ...

  Cinematical — Authority: 740
  Its hard to believe anyone thought it was a good idea to turn 8½ into a musical, let alone Federico Fellini. But apparently the filmmaker was happy to see his best work adapted for the stage back in 1982. I guess it had worked well enough for Nights of Cabiria , though the film version of that musical, Sweet ...

I watched Sword of Doom, an over-the-top contemplation of evil, a month ago. Pretty bad movie, compared with Kurosawa’s Hidden Fortress, Sanjuro, Seven ...
