Wrong Turn
A predictable but well-made slasher it would be much better if only it didn't stick so rigidly to a formula we all know off by heart.
Gigi
Uplifting and cheerful 1950s musical that perhaps didn't deserve all the accolades it has received but certainly came close.
The Mission
This is an outstanding film with many fine qualities, but it requires a bit of concentration to get the best out of it.
Sink the Bismarck
This classic WWII story based on true events contains plenty of action but is most notable for its character-oriented approach to the subject.
Calamity Jane
This is a cheerful western musical with bags of energy and optimism, and plenty of great songs. Timeless.
