		Crowther had had his way." And I myself still recall the disconcerting experience of looking at even such light-weight stuff as a Bob Hope comedy in a Paris theatre a decade ago and being bombarded by an utterly incongruous French-dubbed soundtrack.
		Crowther complains of having "to keep darting the eyes back and forth from the images to the subtitles." A moment's reflection should remind him that one does not stare fixedly at one spot on the screen in a non-subtitled film.
		Crowther winds up his brief by imploring, "Let's give the general audience a chance to hear what they [foreign language films] are saying." I quite agree; and the way to do that is to give the patrons a chance to hear what the same people they look at are saying.

		Palmyra lawyer F. Bosley Crowther III donated the doors, which may have been part of a tavern or home built circa 1825, to the historical society Wednesday.
		Crowther transported the doors in a Honda CRV and lugged them into the historical society's headquarters in Palmyra 30 minutes before pouring rain began.
		Crowther added that it was likely that people removed the doors just because they were trying to get into the building to extinguish the fire.

	Louis the Lion \| TIME
		Author Crowther retells the familiar story of how the ambitious son of Russian immigrants parlayed ownership of a Haverhill, Mass, nickelodeon into the Hollywood eminence that earned him the highest salary in the U.S. for seven years in a row ($1,139,992 in 1943).
		On the town in later life Mayer was an equally contradictory character—a classic Hollywood hunter who nevertheless "preferred to think of the women he embraced as sacred vessels,-potential mothers, rather than as what they obviously were." With less restraint than Hedda Hopper, the biographer names the vessels Mayer may or may not have embraced.
		On one of his frequent European talent safaris, reports Crowther, Mayer was completely entranced with an unknown Hungarian actress named Haj-massy; he signed her to a contract as Ilona Massey immediately after a dance floor accident, when a broken shoulder strap "exposed a great deal more than was normally intended of the actress' smooth poitrine."

	SMOKE SIGNALS
		In 1967, New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther came under attack for his scathing review of Warren Beatty’s “Bonnie and Clyde.”; He hated it for its glorification of the two demented desperados and for its excessive violence.
		He said, “This blending of farce with brutal killings is as pointless as it is lacking in taste, since it makes no valid commentary upon the already travestied truth.” But society was ready for this kind of bloodletting.

		In the same issue of The New York Times as the Macgowan letter in defense of Lifeboat, Bosley Crowther responds with a strong critique of Macgowan and the film.
		Crowther's article is a strong reflection of the American view of films during the height of censorship.
		One of Crowther's criticisms that does not feature a question mark is that of all the abilities given to the German.

	Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat
		But Crowther complained that with some careful editing, the Nazis could turn Lifeboat into a piece of propaganda against the Allies.
		Perhaps the ending as scripted might have appealed to Crowther's need for a more blatant image suggesting the Nazis will be vanquished by the Allies.
		Recall that near the end of the film, the remaining survivors, having killed Willi, are at their most desperate when the Nazi supply ship arrives.

		You know instantly that they are fools, that the women are right, and that it's all going to end badly: in this sense it has the blunt straightforwardness of a morality play, a fable, or one of Bertoldt Brecht's preachier scolds.
		(Again I cling to Mr Crowther for moral support as I expess qualms about what has become, more than fifty years after the fact, a pretty much universally certified Classic Of The Cinema: remarking on the "averageness of the stories," the central characters "stock" and "the lessons proved banal." Whew.)
		One of the film's celebrated strengths is its visual beauty, particularly its sustained sequence shots featuring a lithely mobile camera.

		Within the withering spotlight as no other film has ever been before, Orson Welles's Citizen Kane had its world premiere at the Palace last evening.
		And, although it may not give a thoroughly clear answer, at least it brings to mind one deeply moral thought: For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

	The Austin Chronicle Film Listings
		As the New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther and others were noting in the early and mid-1960s, Hollywood had reached a stagnant period and most of the interesting films were being imported from abroad.
		But with 20-year-old Benjamin Braddock's (Hoffman) plaintive whine about his future (“I want it to be different”) came a film about the loss of innocence, the narcotizing effects of the Establishment, and hotel sex that spoke to a younger generation of movie viewers who knew that Mr.
		As Crowther wrote of the film (based on Charles Webb's novel), the storyline may sound simple, but the film is so much more.

		It was the first time he had replied to Crowther's charges, although Arthur Penn, the film's director, had a succinct word or two to pronounce about Crowther last week.
		Variety covered Crowther's attack on violence cheek by jowl with a paragraph reporting that the Legion of Decency had praised the movie for its treatment and approach.
		And after Crowther, in a second article, served notice to Hollywood that he will ''no longer favorably review a movie with too much violence in it," Orson Bean wrote the Times: "More and more it seems that a liberal is someone who will fight to the death for your right to agree with him."

	Storm Center, 1956
		It may be that in fashioning the story the authors have made their film a bit too pat, a bit too glib, a bit too easy in its articulation of the various points of view expressed.
		[Aside from Bette Davis] the people in the picture act like scoundrels in an old-fashioned play." Bosley Crowther, "'Storm Center,'" New York Times, October 22, 1956: "[T]he issue of [red-baiting] appears undeniably stacked, and no one, outside a rabid scare-head, is likely to say the lady has been been cruelly used.
		No subtle or tenuous circumstances as might be likely in such a situation are touched and thus the crisis seems less a real-life issue than a hypothetical case put in a tract....

	NPR : That Was Cinerama: A Critic Waxes Nostalgic
		Film critic Bosley Crowther wrote of "the shrill screams of the ladies and the pop-eyed amazement of the men" that greeted the film's passenger-eye-view roller-coaster sequence, opining that "it was really as though most of them were seeing motion pictures for the first time.
		It was, however, costly and complicated to film in the three-camera process — if the director shifted the angle a few feet, hundreds of acres of territory were suddenly made visible in a film like How The West Was Won — and it was also expensive to outfit theaters to project it.
		In the decade following that Bosley Crowther review, only seven pictures were made using three synchronized cameras.

	Rebel Without a Cause vs. Bully \| Reverse Shot
		But the insistence with which the scriptwriter and director address sympathy to the youngsters at the expense of their parents and others who represent authority … renders this picture’s influence upon real youngsters with emotional disturbance questionable.” – Bosley Crowther on Rebel Without a Cause, The New York Times, 30 October 1955
		Bosley Crowther’s and Lou Lumenick’s appraisals of Rebel Without a Cause and Bully, respectively, could easily be interchanged.
		Both reviewers take similar exception to their subjects’ opportunistic portrayals of youth culture, as both hot-button issue and pointless titillation.

	DVD Verdict Review - I Wake Up Screaming
		Though Bosley was a little hard on Landis and snubs the intricacy of the ending, he pretty much sums things up.
		I'm starting to think that Victor Mature is the guy they cast to act casual in order to be upstaged by the psychopathic performances by others.
		Mature is oily but amiable, and fits Bosley's charge of "virtually no distinction." In Kiss of Death, Mature was outmatched against Richard Widmark.

		Like his fellow British film star Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers demonstrated his skill in satisfying what N.Y. Times film critic Bosley Crowther called “the British affection for felons — jolly good felons, that is!” Sellers is probably best known for his role as Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther series.
		His portrayal of jailbird Dodger Lane in “Two Way Stretch” is judged by many critics as his best comedy role.
		In his review of the film’s opening in New York City in January 1961, Crowther added, “Like so many light diversions from the British studios, (‘Two Way Stretch’) sweeps several sacred areas in making its impious sport.
