And to think I was too busy watching Fraggle Rock to notice The Dresser

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you have at least a basic appreciation for Shakespeare, actors and the theater, this "quiet little film" will renew your faith in the craft of acting.
Review: There are very few films that can prompt a 26 year-old woman with some kind of a life to write a gushing fan mail letter to a 60-something year-old actor. But, in this case, the film in question is The Dresser (1983) and the actor is Sir Tom...

The Forgotten Nominee '83: Order of ham, make it a double

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2007
The Bottom Line: A play is not a movie, guys.
Review: Ever take a look down the list of what the Academy has nominated for Best Picture in years past? Go on. Go take a look. I think you'll notice that unless you're a serious movie buff with a taste for films with heavy critical praise, there's at least...

The Dresser - Finney and Courtenay, Awesome

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: Easily one of the 1980's best films. Breathtaking acting by Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay.
Review: 1983's, "The Dresser" was nominated for the Motion Picture Academy's Best Picture Award. Its two lead roles were also nominated for the Best Actor award. Each were beaten out by "Terms of Endearment" and Jack Nicholson respectively. How The Dresser...

The Dresser (1983)

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2000
Review: "The Dresser" is a British production starring Albert Finney and Tom Courtenay. Derived from Ronald Harwood's stage play, it has a quality script and characters with some depth. It compares favorably with most Hollywood projects, which, in their...
