		The dire or merely domestic outcomes of so many of her movies can be easily dismissed as the requirements of a less enlightened age, or as a sign of the ongoing bewilderment about how a truly “modern” woman’s story might conclude.
		In the entire range of her movies, it is difficult to call up an image of her in a clinch or a kiss or an unembarrassed sexual situation: except for “Woman of the Year,” the 1942 film that followed “The Philadelphia Story” and forms nearly a genre in itself.
		When movie projects were scarce, there were Broadway shows—she learned to sing, in a manner of speaking, for “Coco”—and gruelling national tours that no other star of her stature would have considered.

		Gone are the days when a movie ticket cost a dime, popcorn a nickel and theatres had a single screen: This is the age of the multiplex.
		Yet movie distributors are not exactly a powerless lot, likely to surrender the first time they are presented with hard choices by a theatre operator; nor are they reluctant to precipitate a showdown when they believe their rights are being infringed.
		Even assuming that the Las Vegas movie market was, in some static sense, operating at capacity, the entry of a new competitor might, as the district court found, simply result in "the exit of some of the less attractive and less efficient theatres in Las Vegas." 712 F. Supp.

	DVD : Gambit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Made in 1966 and released in 1967, GAMBIT was among the last of these films, and like all others in the genre it had a complex plot.
		Gambit shows us two superbly developing stars, Shirley MacLaine and Michael Caine -- and in restrospect, you realize from watching this fine movie that they had what it takes, even back in the 1960s.
		Gambit is a marvelous film full of style as well as substance.

		Michael Caine, at 6' 2" ft tall, is one of the tallest men in the movies.
		(1966) with the main character having to talk to camera had the potential to be a disaster and was a success wholly down to Caine and his screen presence (and Jude Law with no beginning to his screen talent will attest to that fact by the appalling remake he appeared in in 2004);
		(1966), in which he played the title character, a gleefully cheeky, womanizing cockney lad.

	How to Steal a Million
		The theft itself is ingenious, on par with such memorable films as "Rififi" and "Topkapi" and there are assorted breathtaking Panavision scenes in and around Paris for the benefit of those who can't visit the fabled city in person this season.
		The 2nd Thomas Crown was impossible which spoiled it, and Ocean's 11 and 12 were too complicated and far-fetched (though I liked all these movies anyway).
		The movie especially suffers in comparison to the underrated Gambit (1966), another romantic comedy/caper released to cinemas just six months later; Gambit has all the cunning plans, twists, and above all the sense of danger and challenge that a caper film needs and which How to Steal a Million lacks.

	Bewitched Movie Review
		When she landed the job of turning the popular old TV series “Bewitched” into a movie, Nora Ephron realized it contained a lot of notions that are definitely outmoded now, principally that a wife should be subservient to her husband, and that a woman should not use all her strengths.
		Meanwhile, movie star Jack Wyatt (Will Ferrell) has fallen from grace; his career has evaporated thanks to a series of boxoffice duds (we see a few very funny scenes from movies such as “An Onion for Willy”).
		Individual scenes are funny and involving, but the structure overall is clumsy; the pacing of the scenes is brisk, the pacing of the movie is not.

		This movie is an allegory about how man has become too dependent and/or obsessed with machines and technology, in general, as the tramp struggles to survive in "modern times".
		It's hilarious to me that the top movies listed on (e.g.) imdb.com, which has its own user rating system, are comprised of films in the past decade given the garbage that's been released in the past 15 years.
		Though I normally use this classic movie blog for my TCM Picks and other classic movies themes, I recently watched and reviewed two comedies I'd not seen previously which I thought were excellent, and therefore worth bringing to your attention.

		Although "Zulu" was a major success, it was the role of Harry Palmer in Ipcress File, The (1965) and his title role as Alfie (1966), which made Caine a star of the first magnitude.
		"The difference between a movie star and a movie actor is this; a movie star will say, 'How can I change the script to suit me?' and a movie actor will say; 'How can I change me to suit the script?'".
		But these outstanding credits must be lumped in with his appearances in such lesser films as Beyond the Poseidon Adventure (1979), Blame It on Rio (1984), and Sweet Liberty (1986, in which Caine's performance was pronounced the "only redeeming feature" by some critics).
