Kerwin Matthews (5 Against the House) and J Lee Cobb (The Family Secret) star in a film noir exposé of murder and corruption in the fashion world. When a Korean war veteran takes a job at his father's fashion business, he finds they are paying the mob to shut out the union. When pro-union employees begin getting murdered, he decides to take on the gangsters. Based on true stories about mob involvement in the garment industry, The Garment Jungle stands as a pro-union response to On the Waterfront, and is no less tough and controversial than that film original director Robert Aldrich (Kiss Me Deadly) was fired for his refusal to compromise, with Vincent Sherman (Affair in Trinidad) stepping in to complete production.

This Hitchcock thriller is mainly famous for its climax, which finds the villain (Norman Lloyd) hanging by his sleeve from the torch on the Statue of Liberty as the seam begins to unravel. Otherwise, it's not one of the director's great pictures, though it's still worth a look. Set during the initial stages of World War II, the story concerns a ring of Nazi fifth columnists who plot to weaken American military defences by blowing up a munitions factory, a dam and a battleship. In an early example of Hitchcock's celebrated "wrong man" theme, the hero Barry Kane (Robert Cummings) gets falsely accused of sabotage and becomes a fugitive, hunted from coast to coast. Eventually, he hooks up with the heroine Pat Martin (Priscilla Lane), a super-patriot who takes some convincing of his innocence and plans to turn him in--until the inevitable chemical reaction occurs. It's a highly episodic tale that may put you in mind of Hitchcock's previous The 39 Steps (1935) and his later North by Northwest (1959).The miscellaneous incidents (a shoot-out at a cinema, a bizarre encounter with the freaks in a circus troupe) are often exciting in themselves. The trouble is they just sort of lie there like so-many scattered marbles, never building into a coherent and satisfying whole. The bland dialogue supplied by novice screenwriter Peter Viertel doesn't help matters much. Neither does the casting of the two stars, square, wholesome types, entirely lacking in the perversity and eccentricity one associates with the Hitchcock universe. (It's tedious to hear Lane endlessly mouthing off about the American way, while Cummings must be counted one of the dullest leading men in Hollywood history.) Still, this half-hearted effort by the pot-bellied master of suspense would probably make the reputation of a dozen lesser directors. --Peter Matthews
Beat the Devil is a wacky comedy that's played as straight as any film noir and is even funnier as a result. Five men (Bogart, Lorre, Morley, Barnard, and Tulli) are out to garner control over East African land which they believe contains a rich uranium ore lode. Billy Dannreuther (Bogart) is married to Maria (Gina Lollobrigida), the other four are their 'business associates', and Jones and Underdown are added to the mix for some interesting diversification. As the boat leaves from Italy to...

T.S. ELIOT THE SEARCH FOR HAPPINESS is both an exploration of Eliots life as a poet, playwright, essayist and critic and an examination of Eliots personal and spiritual journey. Eliots sudden first marriage ended unhappily. His first wife, Vivien Haigh-Wood, was disapproved of by Eliots family. Soon after the marriage she had an affair with Eliots friend and teacher Bertrand Russell. Vivien was committed by her brother in 1938 to an asylum in which she died in 1947, never seeing Eliot again. Of his first marriage he wrote: To her, the marriage brought no happiness. To me, it brought the state of mind out of which came The Waste Land. It was late in life that Eliot himself found happiness, when at the age of 68 he secretly married his secretary Valerie Fletcher, a woman thirty-eight years younger than himself. The marriage offered Eliot a deep and extraordinary happiness. Eliot was lifted from his loneliness, he had a social life for the first time; Eliot and Valerie travelled extensively together, they loved each others company - and they went to the theatre something which, together with Eliots own love of cats, must have influenced Valerie when, many years after her husbands death, she unexpectedly agreed that Old Possums Book of Cats could be adapted by Andrew Lloyd-Webber and Trevor Nunn into the show we know now as Cats!
After the success of THE BOOGEYMAN (1980) - a slasher classic that carved its way to box office riches and video nasty notoriety - director Ulli Lommel was all too happy to reunite with starlet Suzanna Love for another bout of blood thirsty brutality... and the result is 1983 s PROZZIE, also know as OLIVIA and Double Jeopardy. Regardless of the moniker, this superb slice and dice sickie is one of the most underrated knife-play pot boilers ever imagined... with Love portraying a femme fatale that has a damaged background and a wonderfully skillful way with sharp utensils. Let s put it this way: you may well want her to undress... but the chances are that it is her who will be doing the penetrating! Whilst THE BOOGEYMAN might be Lommel s most famous freak-show, PROZZIE is his most outrageous orgy of sex and violence and only 88 Films, the label that seeks out forgotten splatter flicks and restores them in awesome HD, could have understood the need for a new generation to see this crimson-caked gem in all of its hi-def delirium!!! See PROZZIE and admire a timeless mix of curves and carnage!

He seems an unlikely 'Superman' to take on this Amazonian predator but beneath Mr Martin's modest facade lies that extra 'something' which other me simply do not have.
Jagged Edge was one of a series of entertaining if porous thrillers crafted by screenwriter Joe Eszterhas before he wrote the ridiculous Showgirls. This 1985 movie is a taut mystery about an attorney (Glenn Close) who defends a newspaper publisher (Jeff Bridges) accused of murder. The fact that Close's character falls for him is more convenient than plausible, but it is a necessary emotional bridge for Eszterhas and director Richard Marquand (Eye of the Needle) to build toward a powerful finale. Scary, fun as courtroom dramas go, the film is well serviced by the two lead stars and has impressive support from co-star Peter Coyote and especially from Robert Loggia, who plays Close's cop buddy. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com
