Lesson 29:
@gavin27.bsky.socialBicycle Thieves (1948) 8/10 #IMDb
In post-war Italy a bicycle is stolen. A man will lose his job without it. He and his son search Rome, and we experience the visceral pain. Excruciatingly raw. Devastating and real picture of what life boils down to.
@evillarry.bsky.social
@letitiatrent.bsky.socialThe Play Misty For Me font reads a little "wacky comedy" imo #criterionchannel
@evillarry.bsky.social@gavin27.bsky.socialI rated The Night of the Hunter (1955) 10/10 #IMDb
2nd watch
Pure American Gothic, iconic in every way. A morality tale of good and light vs. Dark and evil.
Visually Stunning
Robert Mitchum inhabits the evil Harry Powell (based on Serial
Killer Harry Power).
@boog1.bsky.socialRace With the Devil: super fun, tense guilty pleasure
The Sentinel: wasted cast
The Duelists: beautiful baroque images
Deadly blessing: fine early Craven

@subterrene.bsky.socialMaybe I can get some help this way: "Hey Criterion Channel, you updated your app and now I can't stream any of your titles on Roku!"
@gavin27.bsky.socialI rated The Wraith (1986) 6/10 #IMDb
I’ve seen 75% of this on TV for the last 30yrs. Finally saw all and it didn’t do much to impress. For an 80s Car action/supernatural/teen movie it checks a lot of boxes but other than nostalgia? Charlie Sheen looks healthy?

@lennfilm.bsky.socialLike Diablo Cody, I too was obsessed with ponytailed dorkhunk Tony Little working his “BUTTTT-TOXXXX” on a Gazelle® every night at 3 AM. Weed or no weed, I still laugh to tears every time I see him. #JennifersBody #31DaysOfHorror #CriterionChannel
@evillarry.bsky.social@gavin27.bsky.socialI rated The Hit (1984) 8/10 #IMDb
Simple tale of human nature and how things never go to plan.
Terrence Stamp is phenomenal as the “grass” who calmly accepts fate…John Hurt is the senior Hitman and Tim Roth is the newbie. Great Spanish cinematography.
@evillarry.bsky.social@gavin27.bsky.socialI rated The 39 Steps (1935) 9/10 #IMDb
Early Hitchcock adaptation of the John Buchan novel. Mysterious spies, murder, chased by the police, the Scottish Highlands, trains, romance and humour.
Robert Donat is superb as wrongfully accused Richard Hannay
@rutgerhauerfans.bsky.socialThe Criterion Channel has a new collection of “Highway Horror” films for October and The Hitcher starring Rutger Hauer is featured. Check it out!
