Warrior: So many great Siodmak movies; so little time.

Posted by: Goodvibe61 (a.k.a goodvibe61) on Dec 11, 23:33

Have you seen many of his films?

Spiral Staircase. A favorite.

Criss Cross: One of the very best Noirs.

The Killers: Another classic.

But a few others that are favorites of mine:

Cry of the City! Victor Mature and Richard Conte are so great in this. Mature is fantastic, as solid as in Kiss of Death.

The Suspect: Do you like Charles Laughton? I love him. He elevates this, makes a solid story way better.

The Phantom Lady: Gripping Noir; Ella Raines is quite good in this, searching for that darn hat. Very enjoyable story.

The Dark Mirror: While I'm not a huge fan of the film overall; the performance of Olivia De Havilland is very, very strong.

Great career. Great body of work. To be able to catch a few of these in the theater? No brainer.

Thanks! No, I do have a lot of blind spots in my movie knowledge but especially foreign filmmakers pre-1980. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Dec 12, 03:50

I'd go check out more of those if Lincoln Center was easier to get to and not so expensive with tickets. TheWeekendWarrior Dec 12, 03:51

I gave the Killers a 10/10 but I havent seen any of his others (a few on the watchlist, just added some that you mentioned) {nm} 3ebfan511 Dec 12, 13:59
