101 Dalmatians. This sugary dog story is easily the wittiest, most charming, least pretentious cartoon feature that Walt Disney has ever made.
Breathless. A cubistic gangster film, with all the crazy humor, anarchic beauty and irrational coherence of a nightmare.
The Millionairess. British Comedian Peter Sellers emerges as a major international star playing that anomaly, an innocent doctor, in a remake of Bernard Shaw's comedy fable about the complications of being rich.
Two-Way Stretch. Sellers again, in a rock-pile farce about a prison prima donna who puts the screws on the screws.
Facts of Life. Middle-class manners and middle-aged morals are satirized in a quick, slick comedy played to perfection by Bob Hope and Lucille Ball.
Circle of Deception. The twist in this engrossing World War II spy piece: the nation commits treason against the citizen.
Other notable current works: Ballad of a Soldier, Make Mine Mink, The Angry Silence and The Wackiest Ship in the Army.
