CINEMA RETRO VOL 21 #62

Our second issue of 2025 has an amazing mix of articles, including a behind-the-scenes look at the Walt Disney live-action adventure The Fighting Prince of Donegal (1966), a superb feature on the matte paintings of the Hammer horror films, and a 12-page 'Film in Focus' behind-the-scenes study of Fred Zinnemann's The Day of the Jackal (1973). Brian Davidson covers Alfred Hitchcock's Torn Curtain (1966), Lee Pfeiffer remembers Where Eagles Dare's Derren Nesbitt, and our second 'Film in Focus' is an in-depth article on Pete Walker's star-studded horror film House of the Long Shadows (1983). All of this, plus a feature on Sam Peckinpah at 100, Robert Wise's Flight of the Phoenix (1965), and the usual round-up of CD, Book and DVD reviews.
