MY LIFE IN RUINS

June 8th, 2009

MY LIFE IN RUINS is a cute double entendre for the disappointing career of a North American educator who unable to get a job in he chosen profession becomes a Greek tour guide. Once again exploring her Hellenic roots is Winnipeg’s lovely Nia Vardalos of My Big Fat Greek Wedding fame here playing Georgia the overqualified tourist wrangler who can barely even hang onto that job. In a gorgeous j ...

EVERY LITTLE STEP

June 8th, 2009

EVERY LITTLE STEP is a more fascinating documentary than you would expect about the audition process for the 2006 restaging on Broadway of A Chorus Line. The show originally opened on a shoe string off Broadway in 1974 and by the time it closed down it was the longest running production ever on the Great White Way and remains in 4th place on that list to this day. That musical which won multi ...

ANGELS & DEMONS

May 16th, 2009

ANGELS & DEMONS is the precursor to Dan Browns Da Vinci Code and has Tom Hanks again under the direction of Ron Howard but mercifully mullet free reprising his role as super symbologist Robert Langdon. Where the Da Vinci Code got bogged down in over explanations, this time Howard gets it right. Here anti matter is a long way off from propelling the Enterprise to warp speed but in a subterrane ...

IS ANYBODY THERE?

May 16th, 2009

IS ANYBODY THERE? is a coming of age film with a twist as the coming of age is not only an entry but also an exit. Edward (Bill Milner) is a mid 80’s 10 year old resentful of his parents newest vocation as it has put him out of his former bedroom. He acts out a lot because they’ve taken to offering long term care for the aging in their rural home. This is actually a mixed blessing for Edward ...

FIERCE LIGHT: WHEN SPIRIT MEETS ACTION

May 16th, 2009

FIERCE LIGHT: WHEN SPIRIT MEETS ACTION explores inner motivations that attempt to induce change peacefully. It argues that it is a growing global phenomenon and rather grandiosely asserts that it was responsible for Barack Obama getting elected. Acclaimed Canadian documentarian Velcrow Ripper was originally inspired by the death of a fellow film maker covering the repression of Mexican peace ...

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

May 2nd, 2009

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past might suggest some slight plagiarism of Charles Dickens. Well, there’s nothing slight about this delightful bit of thievery which amounts to A Christmas Carol with sexual tension added. Matthew McConaughey is Connor Mead, an unapologetic hedonist who has scrooged over a litany of female conquests. When he makes a wintry return to his childhood home to act as best ma ...

Lemon Tree

May 2nd, 2009

Lemon Tree very pretty to quote Trini Lopez, and further the lemon flower is sweet but the fruit of the poor lemon is impossible to eat – especially if the Israeli National Security team says so. A West Bank lemon orchard that has for generations been the source of income for one Palestinian family is currently run by a widow Salma Zidane (Hiam Abbass such a sympathetic, stoic beauty in The V ...

The Soloist

April 25th, 2009

The Soloist is a story based literally on today’s headlines, or at least by-lines if you want to get technical. Star Jamie Foxx will probably be remembered at the next far away award season for his portrayal of Nathaniel Ayers which will be a testament to his outstanding performance (yet another) a the child prodigy at Julliard poised to make a mark on the world with his cello until his brain ...

Earth

April 25th, 2009

Earth is the premiere documentary released from Disneynature, the first new Disney-branded film label to be introduced in 60 years. This mash-up of absolutely stunning camera work seems to be in search of a theme, which it finds to a point. The spectacular natural beauty and savagery of our planet is in abundance although euphemistically expressed in the trite context of a human nuclear famil ...
