Claude Rains is the original 'The Invisible Man' on Peacock

Claude Rains is the original ‘The Invisible Man’ on Peacock

Claude Rains practically owns his film debut The Invisible Man (1933) despite the fact that his face (let alone his body) is seen only for seconds in the final moments. As the brilliant scientist who discovers the secret of invisibility, Rains steps into the film wrapped up like a mummy behind a layer of bandages and blanketed in heavy clothes. When he removes his garments, there’s nothing…

WITNESS for the PROSECUTION (1957)

WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION: Billy Wilder Film Study

Billy Wilder was known for his reverence for the structure of a screenplay, and subsequently, it influenced his films.

Cavalcade

Next up for BP month is Film Review #414: Frank Lloyd's CAVALCADE (1933)

Cavalcade is definitely one of your lesser known Best Picture winners, and after watching it, that doesn’t really surprise me.
