    1. Interesting, only two make my list. Wasn't the strongest year perhaps, though I haven't seen Man Without a Star, Land of the Pharaohs, Il Bidone, The End of the Affair or Wichita.

      Of those, I'd especially like to check out Man Without a Star with Kirk Douglas, and perhaps The End of the Affair.

  2. Haven't seen any of the films... :-(

    I have had my eyes on The man from Laramie and Bad day at Black Rock at least...

    1. Oh, that's too bad. Shame on you ;) No, but you've got plenty of top films (and performances) to look forward to.

      Personally I'd recommend The Man from Laramie and The Desperate Hours the most. But most films and performances on the list deserve a viewing.
