Tim Fywell has been perhaps the best British television drama director
for many years now, and it is a mystery why he has not been gobbled up
by the big feature film producers yet. But here he is with his latest
offering, and it is just as chilling and anxiety-producing as his eerie
and unforgettable Barbara Vine dramas of the 1990s. This disturbing and
nail-biting tale is base...

Match Point just joined Brokeback Mountain and Cinderella Man in the
top three films for me this year. Like Brokeback Mountain, however, it
is almost impossible to write a reasonably intelligent review without
writing a spoiler.I have been a hot and cold Woody Allen watcher, but was only a fan
during his comedic phase. So, despite hearing from a few reliable
sources that this i...

I've been getting a little tired of the computer-enhanced extravaganzas that
have been flung at viewers over the past few years. You know what I'm
talking about--the movies that are short on plot, acting or both which are
bolstered up by loud FX and revolutionary digital animation so that it

This film succeeds where the overrated "A Beautiful Mind" fell short. It
puts its subject's life into perspective and gives a sense of her worldview
and, needs, and desires--as opposed to just focusing on the illness. I

Cry Freedom is essentially two films in one - the first is about Steve
Biko, the second is about Donald Woods. They were two men who railed
against apartheid, but did it differently, and for different reasons.
This movie is an adaptation of their lives during this time, and of
their personal relationship. But it also shows the nature of racial
policy, and how governments that i...
