  Cinematical — Authority: 764
  Initially I planned to make North by Northwest a title revisited in my "Shelf Life" column, but I decided against it when I realized that most folks just love that movie to death, including myself, so seeing whether its still good would be purely redundant. But the new Blu-ray released by Warner Brothers also ...

  Cultural Learnings — Authority: 502
  “Hairography” November 25th, 2009 Last week, I had an extensive Twitter conversation with Jace Lacob about Glee, and the argument boiled down to the question of whether or not the show’s characters were one-dimensional. And what was interesting is that Jace and I don’t disagree: the show’s ...

  Popdose — Authority: 617
  Thanksgiving is upon us once again, and you know what that means: Dinner, and awkward interaction with little-seen family members. And then dessert. Because let’s face it — without food we might as well just call each other and have awkward silences over the phone. And the cinema is no different. So, in honor of ...

• Without Feathers

  
  shadowplay — Authority: 518
  Hitchcock slows down markedly after PSYCHO — at first because he spent a long time publicizing his monster hit, and then because he developed MARNIE for Grace Kelly, who proved to be unavailable for a year, and then because THE BIRDS was a more elaborate and technically complicated production than anything Hitch had ...

• Sabotage (1936) - an early Alfred Hitchcock movie

  
  Movie reviews by CaptainD — Authority: 120
  Some people rave about this movie, but I saw it recently and... well, though some of Hitchcocks ideas were definitely beyond the capabilities of the filming technology of the time, it has to be said that the film really lacks much dramatic element at all. The storyline is weak, the dialogue frequently stilted or ...

• North by Northwest

  
  Topsyturvydom — Authority: 104
  In my imagination, Hitchcocks film was in black and white - probably because I saw it on TV in about 1968 in b&w.; Seeing the Vistavision print in colour at the Cornerhouse today was a revelation. Why is it, that even when you know the story, the shocks are still, well, shocking? I dont think my adolescent ...
