DVD: Madigan   Classic Film > 1968   DVDs   Madigan    Discs    DVD Release Date       Madigan   1   March 16, 1999   check prices     They don't make detective thrillers like this anymore. Madigan is a gem from the '60s, anticipating the more popular French Connection and Dirty Harry with its gritty urban realism. However, this film has a wonderful poetry and sense of camaraderie, thanks to Abraham Polonsky's writing and Don Siegel's inspired direction. Richard Widmark plays a hardbitten New York cop who must redeem himself after losing his gun to a psychotic thug (a plot somewhat reminiscent of Kurosawa's Stray Dog). Henry Fonda costars as a stern police commissioner overwhelmed by his day-to-day decisions. He can't stand Widmark's freewheeling attitude, but he's a hypocrite when it comes to his own private life. Moral decisions don't come easy in this contemplative film. Fine support is provided by Harry Guardino as Widmark's partner, Inger Stevens as Widmark's wife, James Whitmore as Fonda's slightly corrupt pal, and Steve Ihnat as Widmark's charismatic nemesis. --Bill Desowitz   More...       See also: Classic Film on DVD - 1930-1969 1930   1931   1932   1933   1934   1935   1936   1937   1938   1939 1940   1941   1942   1943   1944   1945   1946   1947   1948   1949 1950   1951   1952   1953   1954   1955   1956   1957   1958   1959 1960   1961   1962   1963   1964   1965   1966   1967   1968   1969   Top Films on DVD - Oscar® Winners and Nominees A   B   C   D   E   F   G   H   I   J   K   L   M   N   O   P   Q   R   S   T   U   V   W   X   Y   Z   NowChannel TV Shows on DVD Classic TV   Entire Series on DVD Classic Film   Oscar® Winners More Genres of DVD   Oscar® is a registered trademark of Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
