Pre-2024 Film Reviews
Downhill Racer (1969)
- Excerpt: [Downhill Racer] features lots of abrupt cuts spanning big jumps in time and place, with a minimum of connecting material, while interactions among characters are stripped down to their shortest possible length as if to say “well, now that we’ve established that point, time to move on.”
The Elephant Man (1980)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: The Elephant Man is a deeply moving, sympathetic portrait of a man disfigured in body but magnificent in soul.
Far from Heaven (2002)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Far from Heaven is both a pastiche and homage to the films of Douglas Sirk.
Raging Bull (1980)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Raging Bull stands tall not just in sports films or biopics. It stands tall among some of cinema’s finest achievements.
Tribute (1980)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
