Reviews of Classic Films

Had they not been recorded on celluloid we not have had this exciting point of view reference to reflect upon, learn from, and enjoy. The history of film is as much about the characters behind the scenes, that we make into heroes, as it is about the actors who translate the protagonists that we come to love or hate.
