Lt. Tragg was always good in Perry Mason.

“Smiles of a Summer Night” is one of my all-time favorite films, and as the article suggests it is a “sparkling comedy.” Many “dark” moments yet it brings joy and laughter out of human pain and relationships as suffering. Not typical of Bergman’s work, by any means, but it shows his range. I wish he had done more in that vein, but SSN is a masterpiece and should be much better known.

We took Lonesome Dove with us on vacation this summer, too.
Love it.

Kurosawa's Ran, with a plot similar to King Lear, has a spectacular battle scene at the end. Probably one of the most realistic ancient battles you'll see in film.
This is the kind of film you need no subtitles to enjoy.

Barry Lyndon was good. Different.
