Beat the Devil (1953)

  • Huston, John
  • 1953, John Huston, UK
  • Leave a comment

This is Huston in laissez-faire mode as a group of men with an ulterior motive to milk the riches of Africa meets unexpected obstacles in the form of a British couple, as the film explores human temptations of greed, lust and pride.ย  ย ย

Maltese Falcon, The (1941)

  • Huston, John
  • 1941, John Huston, USA

Moulin Rouge (1952)

  • Huston, John
  • 1952, John Huston, UK
  • 1 Comment

Hustonโ€™s Venice Silver Lion-winning costume drama focuses much more on disabled French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec than the infamous Paris nightclub that he frequently visits in this ruminative take on love and loneliness.ย ย

African Queen, The (1951)

  • Huston, John
  • 1951, John Huston, USA
  • 2 Comments

Save for the decent performances by Humphrey Bogart (his only Oscar win) and Katharine Hepburn, this journey-through-a-hostile-river adventure could have been more meandering than usual.
