Fear and Desire (1952)
Kubrick's first movie is likely his worst. Actually, I've seen all his movies, and yes it is the worst; but why does this matter when he has made some of the best films of all time.

How to Marry a Millionaire (1953)
The lesser of the 1953 Marilyn Monroe musicals about marrying wealthy men.

Mogambo (1953)
Great to see Gable still acting strong and this is possibly my favorite Ava Gardner role. Gorgeous!

Jean Simmons is gorgeous in this religious epic that is, for once, not too terribly long.
The last scene is great.

Or do they?
A Classic Marilyn Monroe film but Jane Russell steals the show in this Howard Hawks classic musical.

From Here to Eternity (1953)
![](https://list.lisimg.com/image/7938320/500full.jpg)
A classic World War II with some surprisingly emotional scenes and performances. The famous beach is disappointing, considering how good the rest of the film is.

I Vitelloni (1953) (1953)
![](https://list.lisimg.com/image/3331546/500full.jpg)
An early film from the great Fellini is a visual feast of composition, staging and hints of themes prevalent in the rest of his career.
