  Sweet Movie 1974

  ★★ Watched 14 Nov 2024

  Too many bodily fluids and solids for my tastes.

  Gloria 1980

  ★★★ Watched 05 Nov 2024

  The plot is preposterous, but 'Gloria' succeeds because Rowlands is a great actress and gritty 1980's NYC is a great backdrop.

  In a Lonely Place 1950

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 05 Feb 2020 3

  In my opinion, director Nicholas Ray's finest film. Ray's then-wife Gloria Grahame, whose resume already included a "Best Supporting Actress" Academy Award nomination, was never better. Bogart's character is one of the most complex he ever played and is possibly his greatest performance.
