Roger Moore Movie Ranking - non-Bond
มุมมอง 15K5 หลายเดือนก่อน
Top 5 movies starring Roger Moore. Not his James Bond movies, everything else. A personal choice, of course, so please add your own choices in the comments below. My list includes Shout at the Devil (1976) with Lee Marvin, Gold (1974) with Susannah York, The Sea Wolves (1980) with Gregory Peck and North Sea Hijack with James Mason and Anthony Perkins. A lot of his movies fall into the post-colo...

A Kid For Two Farthings Blu-ray review 4K scan (50s wrestling movie? W Diana Dors!)
It's hard to get this movie available oversees.
Reed made nothing good after The Third Man? What is he on about? Numbskull.
bullshit!
I was in high school,maybe fifteen when this appeared on late night TV.I watched and became completely engrossed in it.I was literally on the edge of my seat as the trucks rolled along the mountain paths.sorry,I lost my self.This is a great movie!!!
The movie, The Long Haul starring Diana Dors and Victor Mature 1957.
Rip Diana dors
Just read Peter Hunt directed Death Hunt in 1981. With Marvin & Charles Bronson. Seems like a 'Shout at the Devil' type film. Quintan Tarantino is on TH-cam praising it. Will check it out.
im just about feature Peeping Tom on my channel as Criterion are about to release the same restoration in the US - interesting that the media response for this in the UK caused Hitchcock to stop press from seeing it ahead of its release. Studiocanal continue to fly the flag with classic UK films.
Love him...Roger refused to eat the disgusting cruelty that is fois gras...and stood up against this vile abuse of animals. Well Done Sir!
The carachters of Young jedu adventires are so good but the cast....
Cheers for your review, its a rare guilty pleasure this one, kinda dumb but the eye candy is still nice. There's certainly no other film like it!
No, No No! "Escape to Athena" from 1979 was the best.
wild geese and the man who haunted himself 2 best Moore movies
"The Man who haunted himself" is Roger Moore's absolute best non-Bond movie!
Hey, nice Airplane! reference.
We try!
Shout at the Devil is so little known and so underappreciated. I make a point to mention it and recommend it every chance I get.
The story of director Peter Hunt's life, as he also helmed On Her Majesty's Secret Service, which is extremely underappreciated too.
Movie, The Card, one of my favorites.
THE WILD GEESE is easily Roger Moore's best film.
That's a brilliant movie.
Moore’s best non-Bond films are “The Wild Geese” and “The Sea Wolves,” both made by the same team: producer Euan Lloyd, writer Reginald Rose, and director Andrew V McLaglen. Solidly written and well-acted. Let’s not forget the 1976 TV film, “Sherlock Holmes in New York,” starring Moore and Patrick Macnee. Moore’s own favourite was “The Man Who Haunted Himself.”
There's a nice documentary about Euan Lloyd on the Arrow release of The Wild Geese.
Oh, please let's forget 'Sherlock holmes. No need to bring it up.
Mnn i think personally The Man Who Haunted Himself has to be Rogers best movie.
The man who haunted himself is brilliant, I also have a rare film of his on dvd called Crossplot, it's pretty good too.
Well done 🤘🏳⚧(⚵⚶⚴𓌂𓐍𓏏𓁐⚳⚢⚸)🏳🌈🦘
North Sea Hijack is his best film IMO.
yes, a guilty pleasure, awful film great fun to watch ...
thought Anthony Perkins was a hoot.One of his better roles.@@sylvester-jb3lj
The man who haunted himself is Roger Moore's best performance ever in my opinion
Good review of Shout at the Devil on here - 'A bit louder'.
Liked the first hour of The Wild Geese. Then the action was a bit silly. The Cannonball Run is good fun.
That Lucky Touch is engaging. Would have Escape to Athena ahead of North Sea Hijack. Bigger budget & cast.
@@4kfellowship Didn't see North Sea Hijack for years. Didn't have a video & missed it on TV. Was expecting a Die Hard esq big budget action fest. But was more of a drama.
Yes Telly Savalas did a nice job in Escape to Athena. liked a much.
That opening shot looks just like the shot from Blade Runner 2049. The Film reminds of the movie Xanadu interesting it has Gene Kelly connection too!
One of my favorite actresses. Thanks for the video.
What about Yield To The Night, showed she could act and not only a blonde sex pot
Miranda was fun. I recall finding it on youtube.
She was always a delight. To me she was THE perfect English girl-next-door. Thanks for remembering her.
Thanks for commenting. I think that sums her up very well - she's so charmingly relatable and grounded.
@@4kfellowshipRelatable and charming are perfect descriptors. BTW I can't forget her portrayal of the lovable eccentric aunt in "While You Were Sleeping" very late in her career. Cheers!
Yield to the Night not on here?? Shame on you
"I Married a Woman"
That looks like a really good one. Not one I've seen, which is why I didn't include it.
Lovely movie. Well acted and directed. The child was the son of Rosalie Crutchley, now in medicine
James Franciscus. The discount knock off miniature version of Charlton Heston. Too bad he lit himself up. With smoking. He foreshortened his life and died from emphysema.
He did quit acting around 1985 a couple years before he got diagnosed with emphysema.
I mainly know Franciscus from his work in Beneath the Planet of the Apes and the Valley of Gwangi, which led me to his TV show, Longstreet. As far as top 5 lists go, I would have to go with When Time Ran Out, Hell Boats, Marooned, Beneath POTA, and Gwangi. Gwangi is by far the best of them in terms of roles for Franciscus. It's truly a lead role, with his character driving the story forward. The main downside of the picture is that it borrows too heavily from the tropes of lost world stories, like King Kong (which borrowed heavily from The Lost World)...
Thanks for giving your top 5. I love Gwangi, it's my favourite Harryhausen, and I prefer the hidden valley idea to the whole lost world thing - kind of works in an Old West setting.
@@4kfellowship For favorite Harryhausen, I'd have to go with 7th Voyage of Sinbad. Love the story and the creatures ... the cyclops being one of my favorites.
Yeh, i know what you mean by getting Franciso and Franciscus mixed up. That would be especially in the movie Fathom where Franciosa has blond hair. What?. you missed out at least 3 other actors who got an an academy award, Before, Red Buttons, and Willian Holden, and after Paul Newman. Burgess Meredith was nominated twice, but didn't win.
Yes, sorry about that. I originally intended to use another image to go along with that line, but then mislaid it and couldn't track it down again, so I used that one instead ... which turned out to be a bit of a mistake, as several people have pointed out!
@owship Ah, ok. I see. Thank you. PS. Saw in cinema when it came out. Big disappointment after The Towering inferno.
--- WELL DONE! . . . My favourite films with James Franciscus are "Beneath the Planet of the Apes" (1969) and "Marooned" (1969) portraying intelligent men under duress, and so makes the drama happen for the spectator to have a good time at the movies.
Thanks for your comment. Marooned is out on Blu-ray on the Imprint label at the moment and is well worth picking up!
BTW - that picture had 4 Oscar winners in it. Paul Newman, William Holden, Red Buttons, and Ernest Borgnine
My bad. I originally planned to use a different image with that line that didn't have a bunch of other Oscar winners in it, but I deleted it by mistake and went for this one instead at the last moment. Obviously I should have thought twice. Apologies once more.
Masterpiece .
*promosm* ❗
Thanks for the talk I'm looking in to them through coming across this film documentary
Thanks for commenting. It's a nice, compact discography, and that first album is a great place to start.
Informative review of a still incredibly misunderstood film by one of UK’s great directors. I Romberg seeing this first at university in the 1980s as part of film studies course at University. This disc is a massive improvement on previous releases - once again kudos to STudio Canal. And chance of them releasing more 4Ks of Archers output Blimp would look spectacular as 4K. Thank you.
Hello, does the booklet mention anything about "Fidelity in Motion" or "David Mackenzie" regarding the encoding or authoring? Thanks
Afraid not. This is all the information about the restoration in the booklet: Restored using the original 35mm Eastman color negative, optical track negative, and track positive print. 4K scanning: Silver Salt Restoration Limited, London Picture restoration: Cineric, Inc., New York Color grading: Daniel DeVincent, Cineric, Inc., New York So basically, it was scanned in the UK and restored in the US. There's a whole featurette about this on the disc, but I didn't mention it because I was still coming to terms with the 4K scan and they didn't acknowledge that anyone might have mixed feelings about it. By the way, the booklet can a couple of thoughtful, well-researched essays and some nice stills. I get the feeling I probably ought to do a second video that covers some of this stuff!
@@4kfellowship Thank you! Interesting they didn’t mention that. Hoping it’s FiM. I think they’ve used them a lot recently at least.
Thanks for this review. I am new to your channel and just subscribed. Wanting to pick this up. I tend to really like StudioCanal 4K Blu-Ray releases
Thanks for commenting and subscribing. This is definitely worth a look. I've also heard really good things about StudioCanal's release of The Wicker Man, which I've been meaning to order.
I hope Halle Bailey do well even while her skin color does not match the old movie. She has a great voice, and the classics can't be replaced anyway. But I want to see Halle in other movies as main protagonist.
ρяσмσѕм 🤔
People say that her skin color dosent matter but if there was a remake of the princess and the frog, and they used a white actor, everybody would care
