The Last of the Mohicans (THX Widescreen Edition)
Daniel Day-Lewis, Madeleine Stowe
20th Century Fox, 1996
Hauntingly beautiful and with a great soundtrack... (and much better then the novel)
It distorted somewhat (for the better) the original novel (which is a "classic" but quite difficult to read due to the contrived prose).
The exteriors are one of the best ever in a production of adventure&action films and the cast is PERFECT.
It is a savage land ...

Henry James's The Turn of the Screw (Masterpiece Theatre)
Jodhi May, Pam Ferris
Starz / Anchor Bay, 2000
Quality Masterpiece Theater Production
This version of Henry James's famous ghost story is well rendered and keeps the storyline while adding some subtle (or not so subtle) insight in to the mind of the unnamed governess. Knowing the plot quite well I did not find the movie particularly scary but for ...

Daniel Deronda
Hugh Dancy, Romola Garai
BBC Video, 2003
Some Viewers apparently didn't get it
To judge by the majority of Amazon reviews, Daniel Deronda was seriously appreciated much more than not, which is certainly as it should be. On the ImdB, however, there are some opinions, mostly about the ultimate developments of the story, which I find disturbing. ...

Eminent Domain
Donald Sutherland, Anne Archer
Sony/Columbia-Tristar, 2000
Communism With Mask Off
The story is TRUE! This is a small part of what a soul destroyng system does to it's own leaders.
Buy this film, show it to your friends and relatives. This what Cuba, Veneuzuela, People's Republic of China and North Korea are today.

The Gambler
Michael Gambon, Jodhi May
Wellspring, 2002
Highly recommended to fans of Dostoyevsky
I really like this movie. If you're interested in Dostoyevsky, it's well worth seeing (though it's a shame to have to buy it in order to do so.) The film is a "play within a play". It's a dramatization of the Dostoyevsky's novella, "The Gambler", which, let's face ...

World Apart
Jodhi May, Jeroen Krabbé
Media/Fox Video Dist, 1990
Barbara Hershey is Diana Roth
The most powerful movie about the monstruosity and the unhuman injustices of this white and racist regime in South Africa, called Apartheid. The action takes place in the 60's and the heroes are a couple of journalists risking their lives to fight it, writing burning ...
