Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Fresh 5/5	Fresh 98%	La Dolce Vita (1960)	" In spite of its thematic ugliness, this is a stunning-looking trawl through the Italian capital, with Ekberg's impromptu paddle in the Trevi fountain still the films enduring image." Posted Apr 20, 2009
Fresh	Fresh 98%	The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964)	" A truly unique and wonderful film from a director who stands apart in the French cinema canon." Posted Jan 30, 2009
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 100%	Holiday Inn (1942)	" Not the best film for either of the film's stars, but Astaire proves that he can dance even without Ginger." Posted Dec 5, 2008
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 68%	Paris (2009)	" [Klapisch] has created an imperfect but humane ode to his native city." Posted Jul 22, 2008
Fresh	Fresh 92%	West Side Story (1961)	" Technically stunning, with dazzling choreography matching an unforgettable score." Posted Feb 19, 2008
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 98%	An American in Paris (1951)	" t's a simple love story, but also a celebration of dance, music and art, embodied in the somewhat synthetic notion of Paris as the spiritual home of the arts, and the painterly aesthetic of the film as a whole." Posted Feb 19, 2008
Fresh	Rotten 43%	1900 (1977)	" This is a handsome film with fierce and heartfelt ambition that succeeds in capturing something of the extreme social turmoil of pre-war Italy." Posted Dec 7, 2007
Fresh 3.5/5	Fresh 74%	The Magic Flute (2006)	" Flashes of inspiration but not enough, one suspects, to cause a stampeding horde of cinemagoers to beat down the doors of the Royal Opera House." Posted Nov 30, 2007
Fresh 5/5	Fresh 94%	It's a Wonderful Life (1946)	" You'd have to possess a very hard heart not to find something to love in this story." Posted Nov 27, 2007
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 90%	My Life to Live (1962)	" Invigorating, revolutionary, joyfully iconoclastic and spontaneous." Posted Oct 24, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 100%	La Chinoise (1967)	" Prophetic, powerful, disconcerting, infuriating, and surprisingly funny." Posted Oct 10, 2007
Fresh	Fresh 100%	The Bad Sleep Well (1960)	" It's still as visually striking as anything you will see by this director." Posted Jun 22, 2004
Fresh	Fresh 95%	Johnny Guitar (1954)	" Compelling, confounding and at times verging on the downright camp, this picture takes a slow- burning but startlingly vivid look at humanity in the outlands." Posted May 24, 2003
Fresh	Fresh 91%	Oklahoma! (1955)	" Whatever your interest in the sexual politics of the 1950s musical, this is a good-looking, sweet-sounding piece that'll surely have you hot under the collar." Posted May 24, 2003
Fresh	Fresh 100%	D�tective (1985)	" Jean-Luc Godard's hotel-based film noir borders on farce: as conventional as he gets, but still inventive, subversive and darkly comic." Posted May 24, 2003
Fresh	Fresh 93%	Two or Three Things I Know About Her (1967)	" Electrifying sound and image collage of 24 hours in the life of a Parisian housewife by France's most difficult and defiant director, Jean-Luc Godard" Posted May 24, 2003
