Ronin is in a class of films (with the likes of Tora, Tora, Tora or Jackie Chan movies) that CGI can't even touch.

One of the first DVDs I ever watched, with the extras just driving home how amazing the stunt work was.

Für John Frankenheimer, den Regisseur, der das amerikanische Kino über Jahrzehnte mit politischer Paranoia, kaltem Machtdenken und formaler Strenge geprägt hat, war es sein letzter Kinofilm – ein scheinbar simpler Heist-Thriller mit Weihnachtsgimmick. Doch unter der Oberfläche dieses Auftragsfilms arbeitet etwas ganz anderes. Seine Müdigkeit, sein Zorn und seine Ironie. Es wurde eine Abrechnung mit einem Kino, das längst aufgehört hat, Verantwortung zu übernehmen. (ARD, Wh.)

3 things about John Frankenheimer’s SEVEN DAYS IN MAY [1964]

1. “I’ll make you two promises: a very good steak, medium rare, and the truth, which is very rare.”
2. The senator refers to Jiggs’s collection of military medals, ribbons, and badges as fruit salad.
3. A few laps in the pool followed by a cigarette.

I watched Seconds for the first time last night. Rock Hudson turns in a brilliant performance in a deeply unsettling movie with excellent cinematography by James Wong Howe.

Seconds (#JohnFrankenheimer, 1966)

At a bacchanalia, #RockHudson's Antiochus Wilson finally strips down his hesitancy and realises he has a second chance at life, as a member of the new generation. To the Queen of #wine! To Bacchus! To Pan!

The action in #JohnFrankenheimer’s 1964 #TheTrain is so much more powerful and visceral than any modern CGI nonsense. When real trains crash into each other and real train stations blow up, the materiality of the tons of steel, their power and impact is absolutely tangible. This outstanding film is also blessed with an excellent narrative that delves deeper and deeper into ambivalence and nihilism. — #CineMastodon #FilmMastodon

1. “You listen to me a minute. When a man pulls shit on me, he’s either very brave or very stoned. Which are you?”
2. She freezes as the needle goes in, then throws up. He says, “That’s okay, that happens.”

John Frankenheimer's Seconds (1966), a scifi movie about getting a second chance in life, and about why getting a second chance in life can never work. Rock Hudson gives his career-best performance.

Intelligent and provocative. A strange and disturbing , very unconventional and extremely good scifi movie.
