Curt Loves Oldies – Twenty Of Curt's Favorite Films
Movie Reviews by Curt Solash
My natural modesty rarely permits me to brag, but I know that the thousands of fans I've already garnered on Gay Travelers Magazine eagerly await my next film review. However, I thought for a change of pace that I'd write an article on twenty of my all time favorite movies.
Naturally, the choices are personal and the list includes some movies that would undoubtedly appear on many viewers' "All Time Worst" list, but that just adds to the fun. I think this list will probably make clear my sometimes unorthodox tastes and perverse sense of humor. I certainly hope so. Here they are, dear readers, in no particular order.

1) CAMILLE (1936) - This was the first film I reviewed and it's on my list because I worship Garbo and this is her finest performance. Like a diamond in a perfect setting, all facets of her talent and mystique are on display, as is her sublime beauty. You'll have to excuse my rhapsodizing, but to me, Garbo is radiance personified. George Cukor's direction is careful and sensitive and top cameraman William Daniels (Garbo's favorite) outdoes himself photographing the star.
