Review of Cries and Whispers (1972)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 31 Jul 2007

The much-vaunted color symbolism is so obvious as to be almost charming in its simplicity, and the gothic ambience never really resonates…

Review of The Magician (1958)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 29 Jul 2007

Review of Nashville (1975)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 26 Jun 2007

A technical masterpiece replete with self-consciously allegorical overtones rising to a politically simpleminded din…

Review of Rollerball (2002)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 04 Jun 2007

Lifeless, uninspired, and crammed with enough hints of intellectual consistency to give the socially conscious critical establishment shivers…

Review of Soylent Green (1973)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 04 Jun 2007

Uneven and slightly muddled futuristic horror story—not really science fiction, more like an antipollution PSA gone berserk…

Review of Young Frankenstein (1974)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 03 Jun 2007

More about the myth of Karloff than the monster, this Mel Brooks pastiche is probably his best early film…

Review of Battleship Potemkin (1925)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 16 Apr 2007

Let it suffice to say that if you've heard something about “montage” (the joining of filmed images to suggest an idea, create a mood, or…

Review of Thunder on the Hill (1951)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 24 Mar 2007

A pouring rainstorm keeps the drama properly claustrophobic, and Sirk handles the conventions of the mystery with characteristic finesse…

Review of Serpico (1973)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 01 Mar 2007

A virtuoso performance by Al Pacino and some expert location work by Sidney Lumet add up to a tour de force genre piece. (Review of Original Release)…

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 13 Dec 2006

Francis Ford Coppola pulls it off in grand style…

Review of What's New Pussycat? (1965)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 20 May 2005

Review of The Way We Were (1973)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 10 Sep 2004

A film about marriage that works reasonably well as a star vehicle for Robert Redford and Barbra Streisand, but fails resoundingly as the caustic…

Review of I Vitelloni (1953)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 11 Nov 2003

Though still realist in approach, its aura of bitter nostalgia places it squarely among Fellini's most personal and atmospheric works…

Review of Our Man in Havana (1960)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 09 Sep 2003

Guinness is in above-average form, and Ernie Kovacs is wonderful as the callous but charming government official with a soft spot for Guinness's…

Review of House of Bamboo (1955)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 13 May 2003

One of Samuel Fuller's best, a tough, sometimes nasty, but always exciting 1955 effort in 'Scope and color that unites three of his favorite…

Review of Myra Breckinridge (1970)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 02 Jul 2002

Raquel Welch's big chance is snatched away by Sarne's careless and unprofessional direction, and Rex Reed's self-parody is much too pat and easy…

Review of Mexican Bus Ride (1952)

By Don Druker (117) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 09 Jun 2002

Luis Buñuel's brightest, most pleasant film…

Review of The Fortune Cookie (1966)
