What the Bleep Do We Know

Marlee Matlin, Elaine Hendrix

This is BETTER than science-fiction.
Mind bending, fun and creative in it's presentation to reveal the inner layers of ourselves. The whole concept of the film is plausible, exciting and new territory in our spiritual growth. This is a must see for all who are searching for more depth into their own ...

Dead Silence

Gary Basaraba, John Bourgeois

Hbo Home Video, 2001

NEGOTIATING THRILLS
DEAD SILENCE is based on Jeffery Deavers' excellent "A Maiden's Grave," and as is in most instances, the book is better than the movie. But to screenwriter Donald Stewart's credit, his script maintains much of Deavers' plotting and nuances to be a credible adaptation. ...

Walker

Ed Harris, Richard Masur

Universal Home Video, 1988

Applying the punk aesthetic to the biopic
Walker is an unconventional biopic that effectively burned any remaining bridges Alex Cox had with Hollywood. He took a modest amount of studio money and made a film about William Walker, an opportunistic American who invaded Nicaragua and became its president from ...

Bridge to Silence

Lee Remick, Marlee Matlin

Fries Home Video, 1991

Bridge to Silence
This is a wonderful story of conflicts between a deaf daughter and a hearing mother. The acting is believable and the story keeps you interested in what is going to happen next. I show it to my ASL students for a look at Deaf Culture.

The Linguini Incident

Rosanna Arquette, David Bowie

Academy Home Entertainment, 1993

On DVD as "Shag-o-rama"
I'm always the last to know anything, but in case there is anyone else who might be even more "last to know" than I am, here's the scoop. I just found out by sheer accident a few nights ago that The Linguini Incident WAS released on DVD. However, it was put out ...

When Justice Fails

Jeff Fahey, Carl Marotte

Pm Entertainment, 1999

Not as good as it could have been, but still worth watching.
It is a pity, that the scriptwriting on this movie did not match the acting. The plot ( a Basic Instinct lookalike )is in itself very interesting, but it becomes too complex, leaving unnecessary loose ends. If the makers had given the movie another ten minutes they ...
