Shadow of a Doubt ***** (1943, Teresa Wright, Joseph Cotten, Macdonald Carey, Henry Travers, Hume Cronyn) – Classic Movie Review 231
Taut, tense and bristling with pent-up sexual frisson, Alfred Hitchcock’s 1943 dark little gem Shadow of a Doubt is one of his cleverest, most inspired movies. Joseph Cotten enjoys one of his finest roles as […]
Hud ***** (1963, Paul Newman, Melvyn Douglas, Patricia Neal, Brandon De Wilde) – Classic Movie Review 230

Nelly and Monsieur Arnaud **** (1995, Emmanuelle Béart, Michel Serrault, Jean-Hugues Anglade) – Classic Movie Review 227
Emmanuelle Béart (then aged 32) is Nelly and Michel Serrault (then 67) is Monsieur Arnaud – and that’s enough recommendation for all devotees of classy French cinema. Nelly is a twentysomething beauty, tired of her […]
