A Face in the Crowd (1957) 95% EDIT “It includes sharp satire, a chilling picture of the acceptability of a ruthless personality who hides his own ambitions under a veil of rustic simplicity, and a rather stern suggestion to audiences that they not be swept away by any television programs. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Arabesque (1966) 78% EDIT “The screenplay...often lacks the deft touch, but the amiability of the performers, the richness of their surroundings, and the determination of the evildoers...make "Arabesque" an engaging offering despite its occasional stumbles.” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 4, 2026 Full Review The Magnificent Seven (1960) 93% EDIT “Brynner, with his cat-like walk, suggests an effective capacity for violence; McQueen's quick dry smile is effective, and the curious lanky stance of James Coburn, as the taciturn knife thrower gives variety to the seven. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 14, 2026 Full Review The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973) 98% EDIT “Under Peter Yates' direction, Robert Mitchum -- who in talented hands has always been one of the screen's top actors -- and Peter Boyle are touching, chilling, and excellent.” – San Francisco Examiner Aug 24, 2021 Full Review Psycho (1960) 97% 4/4 EDIT “[Hitchcock] has very shrewdly interwoven crime, sex and suspense, blended the real and the unreal in fascinating proportions and punctuated his film with several quick, grisly and unnerving surprises.” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
