Scribbling a few notes in 1975 after seeing Phil Kaufman&#8217;s The White  Dawn, I wrote: &#8220;Culture conflict is a key element in Kaufman&#8217;s work.  The Great Northfield, Minnesota Raid deals with the  incursion of a group of relative primitives into [...]]]></description>

The China Syndrome didn&#8217;t have to be about nuclear power. A  serviceable suspense thriller about a few people&#8217;s public responsibility—or lack  thereof—could be built on any number of contemporary issues. Nuclear power works  so spectacularly well here, however, because of its enormity of risk. Proponents [...]]]></description>

The title song to Moonraker, sung by Shirley Bassey, sets the  tone for the latest James Bond film: gentle, inoffensive, almost sweet. This is  not the audience-affronting, brassy Bassey of Goldfinger or  Diamonds Are Forever; and of John Barry&#8217;s score, even the recycled,  tried-and-true [...]]]></description>

[Originally published in slightly different form in Movietone News 62-63,  December 1979]
Emlyn Williams&#8217;s play The Corn Is Green is nothing if not aptly  titled. Williams has always been a minor writer, and when writing about his  homeland, Wales, which is also my homeland, he has been particularly  unimpressive. He writes for tourists—coy [...]]]></description>

The Dark looks for all the world as if it had started life as a  detective murder-mystery and was recut and redubbed to cash in on the science  fiction vogue. The film&#8217;s continuity stresses the methodical work of the police  in tracking down a killer, [...]]]></description>

Kathryn Bigelow has been making tough, rich, evocative movies for decades, too few in our estimation, and too often dismissed for the visceral, aggressive qualities that make them so compelling. Now, after leaving an unfulfilling relationship with Hollywood and going the independent route, she brought her uncompromising vision to the screen to the screen with [...]]]></description>

You don&#8217;t have to care or even know much about football to enjoy North Dallas Forty. Ted Kotcheff doesn&#8217;t seem to know much about football either, but that didn&#8217;t stop him from making a film about it. Well, no, not really. North Dallas Forty is barely about football [...]]]></description>

Arthur Hiller tends to hedge his &#8220;serious&#8221; film bets by covering them with  near-simultaneous releases of comedies. The In-Laws covers Nightwing in much the same way that The Out-of-Towners covered Love Story in 1970. And now, as then, the comedy is the better effort. The strength of [...]]]></description>
