Love is Better Than Ever

Staring: Ida Lupino, Robert Alda, Andrea King, Martha Vickers, Bruce Bennett
Director: Raoul Walsh
"Notoriously pretty and wearing her dancing tights with aplomb" (Newsweek), Elizabeth Taylor makes her screen transition from junior miss to romantic ingenue in this frothy frolic directed by Stanley Donen (Singin' in the Rain).

Taylor plays small-town dance instructor Stacie Macaboy, who travels to New York for a dance convention - and finds herself unconventionally attracted to hardboiled Broadway talent agent Jud Parker (The Jolson Story star Larry Parks). When romance leads to talk of marriage, the budding relationship takes a clumsy misstep. But Stacie and her dad (Tom Tully) cleverly scheme to put the brash and bullheaded Jud on his toes, leading to some hilarious scenes involving Stacie's impish students and a climactic dance recital that showcases Parks' slapstick talent...

The Man I Love  

The Man I Love

Staring: Ida Lupino, Robert Alda, Andrea King, Martha Vickers, Bruce Bennett
Director: Raoul Walsh
Torch singer Petey Brown is beautiful and smart. The beautiful gets her in trouble. She'll need all of the smart to get out of it in this bluesy, boozy noir salute to tough dames in tough times. On a holiday visit to her family in the waning days of World War II, Petey expects a merry Christmas. Instead she gets a tangled web of mobsters, cheating wives, war-traumatized vets and the kind of love that grabs hold fast and goes wrong faster. Ida Lupino portrays Petey, scoring a triumph under the direction of Raoul Walsh, who helped put her on the road to stardom in the Bogart classic High Sierra. The Man I Love is also notable for its songbook of sophisticated standards and as the inspiration for Martin Scorsese's New York, New York.

Big Sleep (1946) [VHS]  

Big Sleep (1946) [VHS]

Rated: Unrated
Staring: Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, John Ridgely, Martha Vickers, Dorothy Malone
Director: Howard Hawks
Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall made screen history together more than once, but they were never more popular than in this 1946 adaptation of Raymond Chandler's novel, directed by Howard Hawks (To Have and Have Not). Bogart plays private eye Philip Marlowe, who is hired by a wealthy socialite (Bacall) to look into troubles stirred up by her wild, young sister (Martha Vickers). Legendarily complicated (so much so that even Chandler had trouble following the plot), the film is nonetheless hugely entertaining and atmospheric, an electrifying plunge into the exotica of detective fiction. William Faulkner wrote the screenplay. --Tom Keogh

Headlines
  • Seafaring 'Charlie St. Cloud' Keeps To The Shallows
    Charlie St. Cloud purports to grapple with matters of life and death. But this ode to "moving on" from grief packs so little genuine emotion that it will touch only the most susceptible of viewers -- that is, the teenage girls who will flock to see heartthrob Zac Efron cry while not wearing a shirt.
  • 'Dry Land': Where PTSD Prevails (And Formula Fails)
    Ryan Piers Williams directs a drama about an Iraq veteran (Ryan O'Nan) who struggles to reconnect after returning to his Texas hometown. America Ferrera, Melissa Leo and Wilmer Valderrama also star -- but critic Scott Tobias says the screenplay lets them down.
  • Wyclef Jean: Grammy-Winning President?
    Amid reports that hip-hop artist Wyclef Jean may run for president of Haiti, NPR's Lee Hill explores whether the philanthropist and cultural ambassador is eligible.
  • 'Get Low': Greeting Death With A Deadpan Smirk
    Bill Murray and Robert Duvall go head to head in this high-concept comedy about an aging man who throws a funeral party -- for himself. Critic Ella Taylor says that the veteran leads are perfectly cast as a pair of terse and cranky Southerners and commends the film for its sepia-tinged cinematography. (Recommended)
  • In 'Four Fish,' Humans Get Schooled On Seafood
    Lifelong angler Paul Greenberg fuses investigative journalism, travelogue and personal memoir into one grand meditation on humankind's relationship with the ocean. Four Fish asks readers "to reevaluate whether fish are at their root expendable seafood or wildlife desperately in need of our compassion."
  • A 'Dinner' Invitation You Can Safely Decline
    On paper, Dinner for Schmucks seems to have it all: a star-studded cast that includes reliable funnymen like Steve Carell and Paul Rudd, a veteran comedy director (Jay Roach) at the helm, and a premise lifted from a great French farce. But in reality, Schmucks is much less than the sum of its parts.
  • Hugh Hefner: A Radical, And Not Just In The Bedroom
    Most of us hear "Hef" and think of an overdressed, oversexed octogenarian with oodles of cash and even more Viagra. A new documentary sets out to change all that -- and critic Jeannette Catsoulis argues that it's a great success, revealing a committed social reformer -- the "libertarian inside the libertine."
  • Jay Roach, Steve Carell Pair Up For 'Schmucks'
    Actor Steve Carell stars as an amateur taxidermist who enjoys creating elaborate dioramas with his stuffed rodents in the new Jay Roach film, Dinner for Schmucks. The two comedy vets talk improv, pathos and more.
