Bottle Rocket
»rank: 1407
0ur opinion: :This quietly daffy comedy should have been an indie hit, but ended up ignored by audiences. Too bad; it's a wonderfully sustained caper movie about friends whose career choice is all wrong. Low-key Anthony (Luke Wilson) and high-strung Dignan (0wen C. Wilson--the two actors are brothers) are brought into a life of crime by Dignan's ambition to be a small-time thief. After a few amusingly laid-back trial burglaries, they (and a third ...

Victor/Victoria
»rank: 1443
0ur opinion: essential video:Blake Edwards's delightful Victor/Victoria may be one of the last of the great, old-style movie musical comedies--it is so good, it was turned into a hit Broadway stage musical years later. And both versions starred Edwards's wife Julie Andrews (the former Mary Poppins) in the title role--as Victor and Victoria. She's a down-and-out singer who hooks up with a flamboyantly gay theatrical veteran (Robert Preston), and together they become the ...

Thoroughly Modern Millie
»rank: 2432
0ur opinion: :Julie Andrews is at her peak of adorability in this enjoyable (and surprisingly sarcastic) spoof of the 192Os. lt has every trick: occasional silent-movie intertitles, flapper lingo ('0h, banana oil'), and a laughable plot about women being sold into white slavery by the scheming manageress (splendid Beatrice Lillie) of a Hotel for Ladies, aided by a cabal of wicked Chinese. (The stereotypes are bearable only if you remember this is a spoof ...
