The Leather Saint 1955

 

Starring: Paul Douglas

To provide his parish hospital with medical equipment, a Catholic priest becomes a commercial prizefighter.

I've seen so many boxing movies over the years. This has a heart and the purpose of the boxing is worthy and pulls at the heart strings. A little stilted and obvious but I very worthwhile.   5/10

Something Short Of Perfect 1979

 

Starring: Susan Sarandon

A romantic comedy revolving around the on-gain, off-again relationship of a New York Couple.

David Soane was one of the most annoying characters I've seen in a long time, I actually found the whole thing really boring. Thankfully, Susan Sarandon looked a picture.   3/10

The Great Moment 1944

Starring: Joe McCrea

How anaesthetics may have been invented.

I like biopics and interesting to see Joel McCrea in this type of role. As much as I like humour, I feel this may have been better with not such a light hand. Interesting none the less on a subject you don't see too many movies on.    6/10

The Cat And The Canary 1979

Starring: Honor Blackman

Greedy relatives assemble in an old house to hear an eccentric's will.

Another remake of this classic. Relly rather boring to be honest and considering the quality of cast, not memorable in the acting department. Wilfred Hyde-White was as watchable as ever.   4/10
