Winning the 1947 Academy Award for best picture and considered daring at the time, "Gentleman's Agreement" wasone of the first films to directly explore the still-timely topic of religious-based discrimination. PhilipGreen (Gregory Peck), a Gentile, is a renowned magazine writer. In order to obtain firsthand knowledge ofanti-Semitism, he decides to pose as a Jew. What he discovers about society, and even his own friends andcolleagues, radically alters his perspective and throws his own life into turmoil. Director Elia Kazanmasterfully crafts scenes that reveal bigotry both overt and often insidiously subtle. The film was based on abook by Laura Z. Hobson.
On its release, Stanley Kubrick described Claudia Weill's "Girlfriends" as "one of the most interesting Americanfilms he had seen in a long time." A fiercely independent, single New York photographer (in a marvelousperformance by Melanie Mayron) aspires beyond doing bar mitzvahs and weddings and struggles with relationshipsand city life after her best friend and roommate moves out to get married. Weill critiques the historicallyprevalent notions of women, marriage and motherhood, and the difficulties in pursuing an alternative lifestyle.The film uses deft observation of minor intimate vignettes (one has Mayron making a boyfriend pass the "mumps"test) to capture the life of a single woman trying to make a career during the Gloria Steinem-esque era ofsexual freedom and the responsibilities and dangers that entails.
Paul Newman is an up-and-coming pool player and Jackie Gleason the reigning champ in this moody,deliberately-paced morality play directed by Robert Rossen. Rossen and Sidney Carroll's adaptation of a WalterTevis novel gets its gritty reality from the black-and-white cinematography by Eugen Shuftan, who won an Oscarfor his work. The real contest in "The Hustler" is not between Newman and Gleason, but between Newman's love forhis girlfriend (Piper Laurie) and his self-destructive impulses. Rossen's best directorial decision is givingfull weight and screen time to all of his characters. In only his third film, George C. Scott gives a chillingperformance as Newman's manipulative manager.
