The Man Who Laughs (1928): Eureka Masters of Cinema Blu-Ray Review

August 28, 2020
Whilst I think a 90 minute cut would make this practically perfect, there is no denying transformative powers of star Conrad Veidt and director Paul Leni, who both unfortunately died before they could find major success in the talkies.

Five Graves To Cairo (1943): Eureka! Masters of Cinema Blu-Ray Review

August 16, 2020
A thrillingly pacey but almost farcical tale of undercover waiters with orthopaedic shoes, Five Graves To Cairo is a theatre production first and feature film second but always entertaining.

Criss Cross (1949): Eureka Masters of Cinema Blu-Ray Review

June 16, 2020
