Movie Recommendations

Howard Hawks’ second-best western (after Red River) features an aging sheriff (John Wayne), a drunken ex-deputy (Dean Martin), a cool young gunslinger (teen idol Ricky Nelson), a gimpy old deputy (Walter Brennan), and a saloon girl (Angie Dickinson) trying to bring a cold-blooded killer to justice while his brother lays siege to the town. All…

Nebbish film lover Woody Allen tries to emulate Humphry Bogart after his wife divorces him. Woody and Diane Keaton’s first film together is a charming spin on Casablanca.

Third time’s no charm for Astaire and Rogers, who are forced to play second fiddle to Irene Dunne and Randolph Scott.

When the wife’s away, the husband will … dream about seducing the upstairs bombshell. Particularly when she’s Marilyn Monroe. Tom Ewell reprises his Broadway performance.

Spooky (if somewhat over-the-top) account of PI Mickey Rourke’s attempt to locate a missing singer.

Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell keep meeting at weddings…will they ever have one of their own?

Engagingly theatrical feature has some wonderful characters and sparkling tunes.
