Rating:  - Poignant, Unique Film
Having read both the praise and criticisms below of Karel Reisz's 1966 tender paean to nonconformity, this reviewer feels that both sides have valid arguments. This is one of those films that one either loves for its insanity, or hates for the same reason. I suspect that which side individual viewers end up on has more to do with who the viewer is (or, more likely, once was), than with the film's actual merits or lack thereof.
"Morgan!" positively REEKS of its era, not only because ... Read More
Rating:  - Morgan: A Suitable Case for Treatment
This is a great movie for people who LIKE movies. It is beautiful, funny, sad, political, sexy... Brilliant acting from two of Britain's top actors. A gem from the late 1960s that is as fresh today as when it was made.
Rating: - Morgan - A Suitable Case for Treatment
Redgrave made her film debut in this wildly inventive black comedy by Czech director Reisz. Her magnetic performance as Leonie-continually torn between her more conventional side and the unhinged part of her nature - netted her a Best Actress Oscar nomination. "Morgan!"'s exuberant pacing and anarchic spirit make it one of the swinging sixties' most delightfully loony cult films. Also, Warner is terrific in the lead.
Rating:  - Gorilla Theatre
This film may have seemed cutting edge at the time of it's release in 1966;now it just seems terribly dated. Essentially the story involves a neurotic Londoner (David Warner) with a fixation on amphibians and Marxist politics who is attempting to reconcile with his ex-wife(Vanessa Redgrave). As far as I'm concerned, Warner's character is so loony that you can see why his wife left him. We're supposed to find his antics endearing;I just found them incredibly annoying. Redgrave received an Oscar ... Read More
Rating: - Class Warfare on the Bedroom Front
Underneath the zany gorilla suit, the automotive hijinks and the wacky pratfalls, this is at heart a love story about a rich society girl who can't help loving a penniless artist from the wrong side of the tracks. I fell in love with this movie when it first came out, and revisiting it nearly 40 years later is like heaven. The black & white print here is flawless, and the fantasy scenes mixing Tarzan footage, period nature films and Morgan's reveries are clever beyond their time. Jazz legend ... Read More
