1.Sleuth [1972] starring: Laurence Olivier, Michael Caine, Alec Cawthorne, Ted Martin directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz April 28, 2008

... improbable, original, surprising... I watched this for the first time recently as it's been previously hard to get hold of and was impressed by this thespian tour de force. Olivier is brutishly cynical and snobbish conveying a darker xenophobic side of the monied aristocracy perhaps. Caine, ever the underdog but giving as good as he gets as the suave good-time boy. An object lesson in the art of the classic two-hander genre. Lengthy luvvie and informative monologue by the author accompanies this fascinating screen adaptation of a marvellous play

2.The Ghost And Mrs Muir [1947] starring: Gene Tierney, Rex Harrison, George Sanders, Edna Best, Anna Lee directed by: Joseph L. Mankiewicz May 09, 2005

A lovely gentle way to spend the evening. Rex Harrison is marvellous as the ghost with his deep and expressive voice. George Sanders is splendidly caddish with the voice that my 11 year old daughter immediately recognised as Shere Khan. Gene Tierney was very decorative but put into the shade by the other two leads. The cinematography was lovely and deserved its oscar nomination. A nice gentle story.

Of the 4 leads in this musical,only Vivienne Blaine belongs in a musical, being a major vaudeville & Broadway singer & hoofer before this was made. Despite this, it's a thoroughly enjoyable experience, good colour and sound and an outstanding supporting turn by Stubby Kaye. Jean Simmons retains her English innocence well as a Salvation Army lass and even assists in helping you forget that Damon Runyon's picaresque language translates hopelessly to screen. But the best bits are Brando & Sinatra. Brando surprisingly fits well into Sky Masterton and tackles things with enthusiasm. There's also a permanent smirk on his face, because he knows that Frankie wanted HIS part all along, and doesn't it show! Frankie's ... Read More:

6.Cleopatra (3 Disc Special Edition) [1963] starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Rex Harrison, Pamela Brown, George Cole directed by: Darryl F. Zanuck, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, Rouben Mamoulian April 15, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £4.34
With more than $25m in advance bookings in the kitty before it even opened, 20th Century Fox's notoriously out-of-control nightmarish production of Cleopatra is far from the biggest flop of all time but is certainly the most notorious. Indeed, it only has one major problem. Unfortunately, it's Elizabeth Taylor. When she's off the screen and Joseph L. Mankiewicz concentrates on Harrison's Caesar (the screen performance of his lifetime) and the events surrounding the death of the Republic, it becomes a different class of film altogether: intriguing, witty and absolutely riveting. And then the Queen of Hollywood comes on speaking Americanese ("I've done nothing but rub you up the wrong way.") and ruins it all. Burton's Marc Antony is also a major ... Read More:

Far more eloquent people than I have extolled the virtues of this classic - not least, the Academy themselves who nominated it for an unbeaten 14 Oscar nominations (it won 6). It's not often one can say a movie is perfect, especially one over half a century old - and yet this movie does just that. It is a perfect fusion of cast, director, and above all, script. And what a genius screenplay it is - literate, without ever being elitist. Scathing and caustic yet never lacking warmth, it is remarkable that such an insightful movie about women was made by a man - Joseph L. Mankiewicz. The story revolves around Eve Harrington, a young woman who appears as an adoring fan at the theatre back door, waiting for Margo Channing, played by Bette Davis. At ... Read More:

Cleo's have come and gone. There have been many films and books depicting Cleo as she really was to great melodramatic Cleo. Three other popular Cleo's were the Claudette Colbert (1934), Vivien Leigh (1945), and Leonor Varela (1999). There were many more variations between those years. The one Cleo that will always stand out and lets not forget Mark, is the one staring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton (1963). I was old enough to enjoy it on the big screen. Rex Harrison made a good Caesar; watch him have a similar attitude in "The Honey Pot" (1967). Enough time, thought, and money have been put into this production that I am bound to overlook a few of the most important items about this film. The movie is more than just the actors are. The characters ... Read More:
