Week 1 of our War Movie theme month. We started off with the 1957 film Paths of Glory. Did we start the month off with the best film of the month?
William Richert’s adaptation of Richard Condon’s assassination novel is the star-studded pinnacle of 1970’s paranoid cinema crossed with a very dark and dry and dirty comedy.
Directed by William Richert. Starring Jeff Bridges, John Huston, Anthony Perkins, Belinda Bauer, Eli Wallach, Richard Boone, Ralph Meeker, Sterling Hayden, Toshiro Mifune, Dorothy Malone and Elizabeth Taylor
How is the world wrong about this movie?
From Andras: “Winter Kills” works a lot better for those steeped in JFK assassination lore which made it hip upon release in 1979 and incredibly obscure now. Add to this the film’s insistence on being funny and I guess most people don’t know what to make of it. So, is the world wrong or just plain ignorant?
