Rating	Title \| Year	Author	Quote
	Sullivan's Travels (1941)	André Bazin	It has enough merits and takes enough risks for us to consider it one of the most sensational productions of the last ten years. Posted Oct 25, 2022 Edit critic review
	The Miracle of Morgan's Creek (1944)	André Bazin	Sturges delights in forcing upon his characters... the entire weight of weight of the domestic prejudices, social conventions, and moral imperatives that could exist in a small American town during wartime. Posted Oct 13, 2022 Edit critic review
	The Best Years of Our Lives (1946)	André Bazin	Nonetheless, these reservations are not intended to diminish the eminent merits of The Best Years of Our Lives, in which the mastery of one of the world's greatest directors is ever on display. Posted Feb 25, 2022 Edit critic review
	The Magnificent Ambersons (1942)	André Bazin	After the neorealistic revolution of Citizen Kane's cinematographic achievement, then, The Magnificent Ambersons becomes the consecration, in some sort of stripped-down and ultimately classical way, of a new mode of screen narration.

	Crossfire (1947)	André Bazin	How many films have we seen produced in the last three years that have such a unity of style? At most only those of Billy Wilder! Posted Dec 08, 2021 Edit critic review
	It's a Wonderful Life (1946)	André Bazin	Capra remained true to classical Hollywood narrative, conceived and directed here, it is true, with almost hallucinatory skill. The scenes of tenderness are capable of penetrating the armor of even the most skeptical critical mind. Posted Dec 08, 2021 Edit critic review
	The Lost Weekend (1945)	André Bazin	If it were still necessary, we would have with The Lost Weekend striking proof that the cinema's power of psychological analysis is not inferior to that of literature. Posted Dec 07, 2021 Edit critic review
