Movie legend David Niven makes a rare television performance in this classic adaptation of Oscar Wilde's famous story, giving an impish, whimsical performance as the beleaguered ghost who finds himself under duress when an American family takes over his stately home! Also starring James Whitmore, Lynne Frederick and veteran British actress Flora Robson, this adaptation of The Canterville Ghost was first shown on New Year's Eve, 1974. When Mr Hyram B. Otis and his family move to Canterville Chase, they are soon acquainted with the ghost of Sir Simon de Canterville. Sir Simon, however, has a hard time with his hauntings particularly when he is plagued by the family's two sons. Could their beautiful daughter, Virginia, prove to be his salvation?
Perhaps the quintessential example of the intimate epic, Nicholas and Alexandra is the compelling story of Nicholas II (Michael Jayston), the last Czar of Russia, and his wife Alexandra (Janet Suzman). Director Franklin J Schaffner frames the intimate lives of the Imperial Couple against the dramatic backdrop of the Russian Revolution, creating the filmic equivalent of a monumental frieze. Private and public lives intersect when Alexandra, who has clearly read Macbeth, influences Nicholas into several misguided actions while coping with her haemophilic newborn son. Schaffner builds suspense wonderfully as he illuminates the couple's mysterious bond to the mystical Rasputin (Tom Baker) and the events leading to their execution. Nominated for Best Picture, the splendidly lensed Nicholas and Alexandra earned two Oscars for its delicious eye candy (Art Direction, Costume Design). --Kevin Mulhall
