KEY LARGO

Only ones I recognize are 1515, 1518 and 1520. 1515 I watched recently and it's watchable, if not a classic. I saw 1518 a long time ago and if I recall I liked it quite well. 1520 is infamous for the famous dancing in his underwear scene, but I've made no secret in the past that I am no die-hard fan of the film's star.

DEAD END (1937)

Anthony Bushell

I'm for remakes of films there were never really classics to begin with. For example, 1987's ISHTAR had an interesting pretense, with two superstars in the leads (Warren Beatty and Dustin Hoffman), but the execution fell flat. Maybe change the premise of the story a little, update it with a more serious tone (especially in today's post 9/11 era) and with two leads that could actually sell it.

FURY is a great one. Also have a special fondness for DEAD END. Recently saw THIRTY DAY PRINCESS on DVD and she was terrific in that.

Dane Clark

We'll have to agree to disagree on A PLACE IN THE SUN, I think it's a fine movie. But I did give AN AMERICAN TRAGEDY a chance, and I really liked it a lot. I do think Sylvia Sidney is a lot more sympathetic as the poor girl than Shelley Winters, I'll grant that. And Phillips Holmes is excellent as well. They should show TRAGEDY a lot more frequent.

Peter Whitney

I've just recently seen THIRTY DAY PRINCESS on DVD in the Cary Grant collection I recently purchased and I thought she was terrific in there. As you say, she was a bit too old for the part of Fantine in the 1952 version of LES MISERABLES but she still does a fine job in the part.

THE CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF is a fascinating werewolf movie that I always enjoyed. Oliver Reed does a dang fine acting job as the cursed man, and I can't argue that in his prime he was one fine young stud. WEREWOLF OF LONDON is a lot of fun to watch too, with a rare but exceptional leading performance from Henry Hull as the title character. 1941'S THE WOLF MAN gets all the werewolf love from most viewers, but, in my view, THE CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF and WEREWOLF OF LONDON deserve their share of applause as well.

John Alvin

Seen all except 1503. 1506 and 1507 are my personal favorites out of all of these. I like 1504 and 1505 really well. Not an all out admirer of Barbra Streisand, but I thought she did do a fantastic acting job in 1509. The rest are okay.

Katharine Ross

Paula Prentiss

Karen Black

Really terrific selection of the best of Burt, and on my birthday too! My favs are BRUTE FORCE, SEVEN DAYS IN MAY, ELMER GANTRY and FROM HERE TO ETERNITY.

The Production/Hayes code was disintegrating, so yes I can see why those who grew up with the non-threatening moviemaking technique of the 30's and 40's wouldn't take to the new changes being ushed in by the new branch of filmmakers coming about in the late 50's and especially the 60's and 70's. Still BONNIE AND CLYDE was enough of a hit that many to this day consider it to be a classic. I imagine Crowther and a lot of folks really hated THE WILD BUNCH as well, that movie also had a lot of violence going for it.

Yes, she was great too. It's shocking that she didn't get an Oscar nomination as well.

Great movie and a great performance from Burt Lancaster. He truly deserved his Oscar for this one.

Seen all of these. 1499, I am sorry, but as much as I love Steve Martin, the remake IMO does not hold a candle to the 1950 Spencer Tracy original. I love 1500, I always love movies about horses. 1494 is quite charming. Also like 1492 real well. Not sure if I've seen 1491. The rest are fair enough.
