Odd Man Out

Carol Reed's Odd Man Out wasn't really a discovery for me since I anyway expected it to be great (being a huge fan of The Third Man) but it really exceeded all my expectations. The film starts in the morning with Johnny (played by James Mason) and his gang of Irish revolutionaries planning on a bank robbery which goes wrong. The way the story is told it almost feels as if it takes place in real time,...

Lou Jacobi obituary

Character actor and comedian who specialised in Jewish roles Portly, balding, twinkly-eyed and sporting a moustache, Lou Jacobi, who has died aged 95, believed that he "had the look of everybody's favourite Uncle Max". Although Jacobi had been acting since he was 12, he was the sort of character actor that one could never imagine being young. He was born in the Jewish section of Toronto,...

Casablanca Obverse

Oh no, you say-another one of those posts. I know some prefer the politi-bitters, or the theologic cambrianism. But again, Doug with the old movies full of actors who have been dead lately. According to the imdb, Alida Valli, pictured above with Joseph Cotton, passed from this world all the way back in 2006. Also according to imdb, she was in over 100 films-I just watched "The Third Man"...

A shot from Anton Corbijn’s The American starring Clooney....

A shot from Anton Corbijn’s The American starring Clooney. If you saw the legendary music video director’s Joy Division biopic Control , you know he has an amazing way with look. Maybe not story, but certainly look. The “cobbled maze of alleyways” feels like a direct reference to the tunnels of Vienna in Carol Reed’s The Third Man . Synopsis: Anton Corbijn ’s (...

The British (Noir) are Coming

A year or so ago I blogged about a post-war crime drama set in Northern Ireland and titled the piece Northern Noir. I was a little hesitant to apply that most overused and abused term "noir" in a piece about a British picture, but it evoked much of the look,...

Citizen Kane: the greatest film ever made?

I wouldn't blame you if you were put off by the title of this post. After all, it's a pretty moot point which people will continue to argue over, disagree about and use as a subject for television documentaries probably for decades to come. And whenever these discussions kick off, Orson Welles' masterpiece Citizen Kane always gets mentioned, much to the annoyance of those people who don't rate it very...

Odd Man Out

James Mason is unforgettable as a doomed fugitive IRA gunman in Carol Reed's extraordinary and eccentric 1947 film. Odd Man Out begins as a straightforward thriller, then splurges into the surreal. It's one of the masterpieces of postwar British cinema. (NR) ELLIOTT STEIN

Leo DiCaprio + Tobey Maguire = The Third man Remake?

The awesome film website CHUD has made light of what at the moment is a dubious rumor. It seems that Leo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire could be starring in a remake of The Third Man The news article is here. If you think the third man is Ashley Cole or something similar then your wrong. The Third man is an excellent 1949 film by director Carol Reed. It's a superb film with a sublime turn from Orson Welles,...
