This one started losing me (multi-session viewing doesn’t help) as Welles, mumbled through a “Black Irish” street brogue for an hour, getting batted around by obvious noir elements for 90 minutes, before a stunning capper, visually if not narratively. An okay time, clashes of inner and outer beauty and ugliness.

Alexander's Ragtime Band 1938
Best picture nominee 1938.
Tired first half started to win me over by the end. Two lovers keep missing each other through a decade or so of professional hits and misses, marriages and affairs and a 30 second montage of WWI. Decent music, really could do without Tyrone Power in anything

The Quick and the Dead 1995
Delicious pulp with plenty of Raimi touches and ‘90s action moments.
