“Mogambo”
USA, 1953 (110 minutes). Directed by John Ford. Cast: Clark Gable, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, Philip Stanton.
Mogambo is one of those films that is beyond good and evil. It doesn’t matter that he isn’t ranked among Master Ford’s top titles and his narrative has more than notable gaps. The filmmaker knows how to infuse the film with a true spirit of adventure, and the allure of the actors lets the sparks fly as Ava Gardner literally eats the icy Grace Kelly.

“The Elephant Man”
The Elephant Man. USA, 1980 (125 minutes). Directed by David Lynch. Cast: Anthony Hopkins, John Hurt, Anne Bancroft.
In 1980, David Lynch was not yet the pre-eminent director of works like Blue Velvet and Wild Heart. But he was a filmmaker of amazing visual precision and plenty of narrative wisdom. The Elephant Man is a terrifying yet beautiful film that tells the true story of John Merrick, a brutally deformed man who is shamelessly used as a carnival attraction. From his own hand, without cheap sensationalism, Lynch presents the viewer with a grim portrait of human intolerance and cruelty.
