Stranger on the Third Floor (1940) 75% EDIT “Sitting through this study of justice, fear and insanity is like discovering a good book in a second-hand stall.” – Buffalo News Feb 10, 2026 Full Review The Best Years of Our Lives (1946) 97% EDIT “Problems of the returning war veteran are depicted sympathetically and intelligently.” – Buffalo News Feb 3, 2026 Full Review The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin (1918) 100% EDIT “There will be very few in any audience that views this picture who can go away without having been thrilled and shaken to the very heart with the wonderful acting of the principals and the supporting cast.” – Buffalo News Dec 5, 2023 Full Review The Jungle (1914) 80% EDIT “There is a wonderful mingling of pathos, love and wretchedness.” – Buffalo News Dec 5, 2023 Full Review Main Street (1923) 57% EDIT “Florence Vidor imparts a distinguished grace to the role of Carol. ” – Buffalo News Jan 25, 2023 Full Review Frankenstein (1931) 94% EDIT “The last reel of the exciting film takes the breath away from the spectator. ” – Buffalo News Jan 17, 2023 Full Review Gentleman's Agreement (1947) 82% EDIT “It’s a long and talkative picture; in fact, it’s mostly talk, and you may agree with this reviewer that it’s a little too long. But you won’t be bored, we promise you.” – Buffalo News Nov 15, 2022 Full Review Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) 99% EDIT “Its sparkle, innocence and sweet-natured fun give it a charm which will touch everyone. Seldom has a single highly-agreeable mood -- one of happiness and tenderness -- been so strongly evoked by a film.” – Buffalo News Nov 10, 2022 Full Review The Bird With the Crystal Plumage (1970) 85% EDIT “Sadistic but superb.” – Buffalo News Sep 26, 2022 Full Review The Life of Emile Zola (1937) 92% EDIT “Superbly acted by one of the screen’s greatest character actors, aided by a splendid cast of fellow players, The Life of Emile Zola... is one of the most important historical dramatic entertainments to come out of Hollywood in recent years.” – Buffalo News Aug 3, 2022 Full Review The Rogue Song (1930) 79% EDIT “The motion picture remnants have been employed under the direction of Lionel Barrymore are nothing other than ordinary. The value of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer effort lies purely in bringing to the masses real music in a medium that can best be assimilated.” – Buffalo News Jun 28, 2022 Full Review The Miracle Man (1919) 95% EDIT “George Loane Tucker, is producer and director, has handled the striking story with the touch of genius. Interpreted by a cast far above the average, its gripping appeal holds the audience spellbound.” – Buffalo News Jan 11, 2022 Full Review Safety Last (1923) 97% EDIT “Shrill shrieks of hysterical laughter yesterday were the best evidence that the comedy is distinctly out of the ordinary.” – Buffalo News Oct 7, 2021 Full Review Romeo and Juliet (1916) 100% EDIT “Romeo is most acceptably portrayed by Harry Hilliard. But through the entire performance, the predominating feature is the acting of Miss Bara.” – Buffalo News Mar 5, 2021 Full Review Shoes (1916) 91% EDIT “Sweet and appealing is the acting of little Mary MacLaren in the splendid Lois Weber production of Shoes.” – Buffalo News Dec 16, 2020 Full Review The Gulf Between (1917) 83% EDIT “The marine views are especially good, the film having caught with great accuracy the coloring of sky, water and shore. It is a sea story and plenty of opportunity is given to show these scenes.” – Buffalo News Nov 18, 2020 Full Review
