Enjoyed your list. Some of them I don't know but saw "The Man Who Never Was" years ago. I quite agree that the film is interesting with all the details they go through and then still are not convinced they can pull it off. I saw this before I knew much about Webb and this is one of his "softer" performances. Not as hard as other performances. Just what was called for. I like the Murphy films. They aren't always great but more often than not enjoyable. My favorite Murphy is "No Name On The Bullitt." I am off to check your old lists.
A lovely, eclectic list like the author.
"No Name On The Bullet." Proofreading would be a good start to a comment.Sorry.
ALI BABA AND THE FORTY THIEVES and THE NIGHT MY NUMBER CAME UP are both terrific movies, especially the latter with its wonderful ambiguity. Does anything supernatural happen or not? Some good suspense as well.
SON OF ALI BABA is definitely getting added to my shopping list.
Chris, thank you so much for your comment, I'm glad to know you liked THE MAN WHO NEVER WAS. I share your admiration for NO NAME ON THE BULLET, it's a terrific film!
Caftan Woman, thank you so much. :) :)
DforDoom, thank you for adding your endorsement to ALI BABA AND THE FORTY THIEVES and THE NIGHT MY NUMBER CAME UP. I hope other people will try them out! Hope you enjoy SON OF ALI BABA as much as I did when you catch up with it.
Best wishes,
Laura
