Movies starring Chris Sarandon

Dog Day Afternoon (1965)

125 mins     Crime, Drama      

I hate pretentious nonsense and unfortunately over the years I have read plenty of pretentious things which have been written about "Dog Day Afternoon". Now I am not saying any of those things are wrong but when it comes to y...

Protocol (1984)

96 mins     Comedy      

"Protocol" is one of those movies which have a problem and that problem comes from it being a star vehicle rather than a movie about a story. As such whilst "Protocol" should have been a political satire about devious politic...

This Child Is Mine (1985)

Fright Night (1985)

106 mins     Horror      

Back in 1985 when "Fright Night" came out I was 12 going on 13 and to be honest at that age I hadn't really got in to watching horror movies yet. As such there are many horror movies from the 80s which I have ended up watchin...

The Princess Bride (1987)

98 mins     Adventure , Comedy, Family      

In many ways I can see what director Rob Reiner was trying to do with "The Princess Bride", he wants it to be a movie which draws on elements of swashbuckling and fairytale but then playing them more for laughs than pure exci...

Mayflower Madam (1987)

92 mins     Drama, TV Movie      

Hands up all those outside of America who have heard of Sydney Biddle Barrows who became known as the Mayflower Madam. I know my hand isn't up and I am sure there are many others who are looking blank at the mention of this n...

My Sassy Girl (2008)

92 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

I will stop that synopsis of "My Sassy Girl" there but I will say that the content of Jordan's letter to Charlie is what the movie is all about. It explains her behaviour and why they had to part ways. I will also say now tha...

Safe (2012)

94 mins     Action , Crime, Thriller      

I hope the synopsis to "Safe" makes sense and that you can see it is not that complicated as you won't think that is the case when you start watching. Writer and director Boaz Yakin chooses to start the movie with a disjointe...
