(1955)      "Changed the face of the musical… After The Sound of Music, it's the best-loved Rogers & Hammerstein film adaptation, deservedly so." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A-      Old Yeller (1957)      "What makes Old Yeller more than run-of-the-mill Disney is not only the gut-wrenching climax, but also the remarkably well-done uplift of the denouement." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       C-      Oliver and Company (1988)      "The last gasp of Disney Animation's post-Walt malaise before the 1990s Disney renaissance … retains Dickens's seamy milieu, but not his morality-play tableau." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A+      On the Waterfront (1954)      "Religion and social action finally meet in Hollywood… a great film for many reasons, but its most enduring asset may be the young Brando." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A-      Once (2007)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       C+      One Man's Hero (1998)      "An earnest, flawed film for thoughtful, critical viewing." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       C      One Night With The King (2006)      "Distinctly made-for-TV vibe [despite] visual spectacle and a distinguished supporting cast." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A      Open City (1945)      "Stunned audiences the world over recognized in it an unmediated authenticity more evocative of the documentary quality of wartime newsreels than of conventional WWII dramas." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       B      Open Range (2003)      "Open Range is a bit like Charley himself: competent, flawed, unglamorous, grim but not unhopeful, it gets the job done… a simple, uncluttered tale of honor, loyalty, freedom, and frontier justice." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A+      Ordet (1955)      "Dreyer is digging deeper than these slogans ["institutional religion" versus "personalized faith"], to the regions of mystery where Johannes's mind was lost." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       B      The Others (2001)      "Watch it, and see what was wrong with the Zemeckis/Ford/Pfeiffer flop What Lies Beneath." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A      Our Hospitality (1923)      "Keaton's first feature-length comedy is one of his best, a comic gem set against a backdrop of a Hatfield-McCoy style family feud." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       B+      Out of Ireland - The Story of Emigration into America (1995)      "Period letters and songs, archival and modern photography, and illustrative anecdotes as well as broad analysis are all deployed to convey the flavor as well as the sequence of historical events." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       B      Over the Hedge (2006)      "May satirize suburban foibles, but that doesn't mean family audiences need to see themselves as the target. Who really likes plastic flamingos, anyway?" [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide       A-      The Ox-Bow Incident (1943)      "In contrast to the familiar Western device of the hero obliged to take the law into his own hands… a grim, messy cautionary tale about vigilante justice and mob rule." [movie review]      The Decent Films Guide
