The Naked Spur

by TFH Team

Art Gilmore’s breathless narration propels us through this classic trailer for the third collaboration between James Stewart and Anthony Mann, a rugged five-character psychological western with a great cast and gorgeous Rocky Mountain locations.

No Name on the Bullet

by TFH Team

Sci-fi specialist Jack Arnold’s best Western casts Audie Murphy against type -or is he?- as a cold-blooded hit man who just might be Death personified and brings fear to a town full of guilty people. An underrated gem.

The Nanny

by TFH Team

Middle-aged leading ladies from prior decades found new starring opportunities during the sixties in lurid horror followups to the successful Davis/Crawford vehicle Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?. One of the best of these was this well-received Hammer suspense thriller starring Bette Davis in one of her most sinister yet touching late career roles.

Nashville

by TFH Team

Shot mostly in sequence with entirely on-set sound recording, this free-form metaphor for American society circa 1975 is one of Robert Altman’s most acclaimed and yet controversial projects. Susan Anspach was originally cast in the Ronee Blakeley role and Robert Duvall turned down the country star role that Henry Gibson played–the jury is out on…

Shot mostly in sequence with entirely on-set sound recording, this free-form metaphor for American society circa 1975 is one of Robert Altman’s most acclaimed and yet controversial projects.

Nashville Girl

by TFH Team

It’s a rough road to country music stardom for a briefly virginal Loretta Lynn wannabe in this fast-paced rags-to-riches “hicksploitation” saga, New World style.

In the Navy

by TFH Team

Bud and Lou’s second WW II service comedy was another huge hit, but ran afoul of wartime censors because of a scene where Lou takes command of a destroyer and crashes it. The sequence was finally allowed but only after a reshoot transformed it into a dream sequence.

Near Dark

by TFH Team

For her second film, director Kathryn Bigelow’s original intention had been to make a revisionist western, but when it became apparent nobody was funding horse operas in 1987 she and co-writer Eric Red decided to turn their project into a genre hybrid–a vampire western. Aside from Curse of the Undead (1959), Billy the Kid Meets…

We Need to Talk About Kevin

by TFH Team

Lynne Ramsey’s chilling 2012 US-British horror film, about a young sociopath whose sadistic disposition turns murderous, skirts the line between exploitation and art. Tilda Swinson plays Kevin’s tragically ineffectual mother and John C. Reilly co-stars as his oblivious father. Both the long-gestating film and Swinson nabbed several awards including the Palme d’Or at Cannes and…

Network

by TFH Team

One of the most prescient and corrosive satires ever filmed, Paddy Chayefsky’s Oscar-winning screenplay is brilliantly realized by director Sidney Lumet, with an exceptional cast at its collective best. Stunningly transgressive in 1976, today it plays like a documentary and the bizarre programming on the fictional UBS Network looks positively classical compared to what we’re…

Never Give a Sucker an Even Break

by Charlie Largent

W.C. Fields’ last starring vehicle was shot under the title The Great Man, and despite a host of studio-mandated cuts, stands as a triumphantly nonsensical, semi-autobiographical farrago of unreconstructed Fieldsiana. Sadly, few original Fields trailers exist so this one is a fan-made attempt to duplicate the style of Universal promotion circa 1941.

Never Take Candy from a Stranger

by TFH Team

Controversial and little seen in its day, this well done social problem drama made for an uncharacteristic and correspondingly uncommercial project for Hammer Films, which tried to sell it as a maniac-on-the- loose movie. British critics labeled it sordid and tasteless, but in fact it was ahead of its time in its consideration of child…

New York, New York

by Charlie Largent

Hobbled by studio cuts and ignored at the box office, Martin Scorsese’s New York, New York was conceived as a tribute to “event” movies like Cukor’s A Star is Born—musical epics that leaned on complex characterizations as much as a good showstopper. Robert De Niro flexes his acting chops as a volatile jazz musician and…

All Through the Night

by TFH Team

Released soon after Pearl Harbor, audiences in 1941 didn’t find this Runyonesque comic melodrama in which familiar Warner gangsters unite to fight Nazis all that funny. But years of tv exposure has built up the following it deserves. It’s no To Be Or Not To Be, but Vincent Sherman’s second time directing Bogart (and a…

Night Call Nurses

by TFH Team

Jonathan Kaplan relives his frenetic directorial debut on the third of New World’s five low-budget nubile-nurses-in-trouble movies. More overtly comic than previous entries, this was also Julie Corman’s first outing as producer. NSFW.

Night Gallery

by Charlie Largent

Set in a supernatural museum decorated by foreboding artworks, Rod Serling’s Night Gallery premiered in 1969 on NBC. The pilot episode featured three stories, The Cemetery, with Roddy McDowall, Escape Route with Richard Kiley, and, its most celebrated effort, Eyes, starring Joan Crawford, and directed by Steven Spielberg. The show went on to a three…

All Night Long

by TFH Team

No, not the 1982 Barbra Streisand movie (which come to think of it might be equally unfamiliar), but Basil Dearden’s sadly obscure 1962 British drama which received a barely noticeable US release a year later from the tiny Colorama Features. A mouth-wateringly rare assembly of jazz greats is on display jamming it up behind the…

Night Of The Living Dead

by TFH Team

One-time industrial filmmaker George Romero’s seminal Pittsburgh indie (an unauthorized re-imagining of “I Am Legend”) changed the face of horror films and redefined the word “zombie” for a generation. It spawned a flood of imitations, but a copyright snafu sent Romero’s signature work into the public domain and he had to remake it in color…

A Night at the Opera

by TFH Team

Although some bemoan Irving Thalberg’s civilizing influence on the Marx Brothers when they moved to MGM, this is probably their most popular picture. And seen with an audience, one of their all-time funniest.

The Night Walker

by TFH Team

Tormented heroine Barbara Stanwyck is haunted by an expressionistic dreamworld in 1964’s The Night Walker, William Castle’s speedy follow-up to that same year’s Strait-Jacket. The Night Walker also recycles that thriller’s template, switching out Joan Crawford for Stanwyck in the faded Hollywood star department and bringing back Robert Bloch to fashion yet another macabre storyline. This was Stanwyck’s…

Nightmare Alley

by TFH Team

One of the darkest major studio movies of the post-war period, this bleakly cynical melodrama anticipates the most nihilistic upcoming noirs despite its classy auspices. A movie Tom Cruise needs to remake.

Nightmare Cinema

by Charlie Largent

Masters of Horror directors Mick Garris and Joe Dante team up with cultish mischief makers Ryûhei Kitamura, David Slade, and Alejandro Brugués to breathe life into the venerable horror anthology genre a la Dr. Terror’s House of Horror. Mickey Rourke stars as a sinister projectionist who screens horror films with all-too-real consequences for his audience.

Nightmare in the Sun

by Charlie Largent

A topsy-turvy take on The Postman Always Rings Twice, Ursula Andress, John Derek and Aldo Ray engage in some murderous fun and games in this 1965 potboiler directed by Hollywood stalwart Marc Lawrence. Shot in a little over two weeks in Calabasas, California, Lawrence co-wrote the steamy screenplay with his wife Fanya.

NINJA 3: THE DOMINATION

by Charlie Largent

Prime Golan-Globus product from 1984 boasting the quintessential Cannon Films plotline: a curvy aerobics teacher (played by Lucinda Dickey, star of Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo) is possessed by the spirit of an evil ninja and the only way she can can rid herself of this meddlesome ghost is to engage in foot to nose combat…

No Blade of Grass

by TFH Team

Socially committed filmmaker Cornel Wilde (who often specialized in directing showcases for his wife, Jean Wallace) depicts a future societal breakdown brought on by global famine and pollution. In today’s genetically engineered Frankenfood society it’s only a matter of time before someone pounces on this one for a remake, as it features all the sensational…

No Country for Old Men

by TFH Team

Javier Bardem enters the pantheon of formidable movie monsters as the implacable killing machine on the prowl for his $2 million. Not since Robert Mitchum in Night of the Hunter has an actor made evil so unsettling. Widely acclaimed as one of the most accomplished films of its era; nonethless, some audiences found it impenetrable….
