Loose Connections 1983


 Starring: Lindsay Duncan

Adventures on a drive to Munich

Bundt movie, interesting to see society views of the time. I never warmed to Lindsay Duncan and this will not be one that lives in the memory.      5/10

Too Many Husbands 1940

 

Starring: Jean Arthur

Allegedly drowned on a boat cruise, a man turns up again after his wife has remarried.

Not the most original script idea but this is delightfully delivered. Some very funny moments with a great supporting cast and quality comic timing.    7/10

A Guide For The Married Man 1967

 

Starring: Walter Matthau

A practised wolf explains to a perfect husband how to be unfaithful.

Despite a few humorous moments, this is just a bit too obvious for me. Plenty of views of ladies bums and tits, as pleasant as this may be, I feel a movie needs a lot more. Interesting to see all the star cameos though.       5/10

The Neptune Factor 1972


 Starring: Ben Gazzara

American oceanologists conduct an experiment in underwater living.

Wow, this looks dated. Some of the underwater effects were okay, the rest made me laugh out loud, I wonder how they were viewed at the time of release. Lacks tension to be honest but has Ernest Borgnine in it and he's always been one of my favourite actors, I love seeing what he does with a role. Not much for him to work with here, but his class shines through.     7/10
