Erich von Stroheim&#8217;s masterpiece and one of the best silent films ever made, Greed remains a powerful indictment against the deadly sin of the title. Based on Frank Norris&#8216; McTeague, the film revolves around the misdeeds of a California dentist (Gibson Gowland, center), his miserly wife (ZaSu Pitts, left), and her former lover (Jean Hersholt, not in the above picture), all of whom sacrifice their selves to the all-powerful God of Dollar Bills.  Stroheim&#8217;s initial cut had 47 reels, though eventually Greed was pared down to 10 reels (approximately 2h15m). That is all that is known to survive from the original film. But in spite of the drastic cuts, many of  Stroheim&#8217;s magnificently perverted excesses are very much [...]]]></description>

Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca

CASABLANCA III &#8211; Humphrey Bogart
That brings me to the last and least of the trio of star performances:  Ingrid Bergman&#8217;s rather mediocre portrayal of Ilsa Lund. First, it&#8217;s not a truly bad  performance, but it&#8217;s nowhere near great. One need only look at contemporaneous  performances by, say,  Katharine Hepburn, Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, or even Judy  Garland, to see how much Bergman pales in contrast. Ilsa is a pawn, a toy, a  heroine whose life is the plaything of the two men in her life &#8212; and,  incidentally, isn&#8217;t it interesting how similar in facial construction both  Henreid and Bogart are? A fortuitous development that adds some [...]]]></description>
