Ladri di biciclette (1948)

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

Like Sunday, Like Rain (2014)

I found it emotionally resonant. There is an unspoken tension between the two leads that is interesting to watch. Julian Shatkin's debut performance should position him for a solid career.

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

Little Fugitive (1953)

Magnolia (1999)

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

Microbe et Gasoil (2015)

This is an all-around well-made film with great performances from the actors, especially Dargent. It skillfully covers a lot of the emotional ground of adolescence while still offering a fresh perspective. There are some loose ends left when the credits roll, which may disappoint some.

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

Mr. Holmes (2015)

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

The Navigator: A Medieval Odyssey (1988)

This is a very ambitious film, and at times the plot is hard to follow, but it's definitely worth experiencing. Great performance from Hamish in a tough role.

The Rocking Horse Winner (1949)

Unique and thrilling film. The relationship between Davies' character and Mills' character is interesting to follow. Another top notch production from The Rank Organization.

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

The Search (1948)

A great film dealing with experiences of postwar trauma and the attempt to rebuild lives in the aftermath of conflict. Ivan Jandl was a worthy choice for the Juvenile Oscar

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

Where Eskimos Live (2002)

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10

The Wonder Kid (1951)

Bobby Henrey was heavily promoted as the star of this film - I guess he was quite popular after The Fallen Idol! He is charming here as the sheltered piano prodigy Sebastian, who yearns for a normal boyhood and especially hates the feminine collars he is made to wear for recitals. Muriel Aked puts in a delightfully campy performance as the whacky but loving governess. Oskar Werner plays an American gangster who reluctantly gets caught up with European mobsters, and finds himself acting as a father figure for young Sebastian. An offbeat and entertaining thriller.

My Movie Rating:

9 / 10
