  The Black Vampire 1953

  ★★★½ Watched 01 Mar 2025

  The Professor was an excellent performance. The cabaret singer was underdeveloped.

  Also what kind of a friend asks her creepy friend to take a kid for a walk knowing there’s a child murderer on the loose?

  Brighton Rock 1948

  ★★★½ Watched 03 Jan 2025

  Suffers a bit from comparison with the book, which is much bleaker, especially the ending. But I really liked the freakish carnival ride sequence and Rose’s heartbreaking performance.

  Who Killed Teddy Bear? 1965

  ★★★½ Watched 25 Oct 2024

  Icky but realistic look at incels and their perverse, misogynistic rationalizations. Great soundtrack that shows why it was the “swinging” 60s.

  The More the Merrier 1943

  ★★★★ Watched 29 Sep 2024

  minus 0.5 stars for the wailing towards the end, plus 1 star because Joel McCrea is very hot in this, especially *that* time
