Accident (1967) 76% EDIT “Pinter conveys this progressive, irreversible disaster with words, and Mr. Losey conveys it with precise pictorial correlatives. The two men make an exceptionally gifted and intelligent team, and I hope they will go on working together for a long time.” – The New Yorker Aug 15, 2022 Full Review The Birds (1963) 95% EDIT “Hard as it may be to believe of a Hitchcock, it doesn’t arouse suspense, which is, of course, what justifies and transforms the sadism that lies at the heart of every thriller. Here the sadism is all too nakedly, repellently present.” – The New Yorker Aug 15, 2022 Full Review Blow-Up (1966) 87% EDIT “Having launched a conventionally piquant little mystery story, Anonioni characteristically abandons it, and the picture slips into fantasy and closes with a pretentiously symbolic tennis match, played without rackets or ball.” – The New Yorker Aug 15, 2022 Full Review Last Year at Marienbad (1961) 93% EDIT “It flows past one’s eyes with the suavity and never-to-be-questioned illogic of a dream, and indeed it may be that we are intended to perceive that its story is a sort of dream within a dream.” – The New Yorker Aug 15, 2022 Full Review Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967) 71% EDIT “The movie insidiously charms us into ignoring its defects, and for this the credit must go to a superb cast.” – The New Yorker Mar 27, 2019 Full Review
