My Life Without Me (Dol Slip)
Sarah Polley, Amanda Plummer

Sony Pictures, 2004

Never Can Say Goodbye
How you feel about this film will depend in large part on your perception of Ann - played brilliantly by Sarah Polley who offers an unvarnished, raw, powerful performance. A young woman told she has only weeks to live keeps the information to herself and orchestrates ...
  
  











  



  
Blue Monkey
Ivan E. Roth, Steve Railsback

Sony Pictures Home E, 1988

Take a fifties-style horror film in the tradition of "Them" and "The Fly," cross it with the spectacular special effects of the eighties and your've got BLUE MONKEY. This bizare tale of horror begins in a greenhouse where a mysterious plant rubs its first victim the wrong way. So wrong, in fact, that he lands at County Memorial Hospital where he ...
  
  











  



  
One Magic Christmas
Mary Steenburgen, Gary Basaraba

Buena Vista Home Vid

One Magic Christmas
This has always been one of my favorite Christmas movies...a reminder of what is most important - the loved ones in our lives-- and how easy it is to get caught up in the miseries of the world - and forget the Magic.
  
  











  



  
Lantern Hill
Mairon Bennett, Sam Waterston

Buena Vista Home Video, 1991

Kevin Sullivan brings another L. M. Montgomery novel to life
I was always rather surprised that when Kevin Sullivan decided to turn to another Lucy Maud Montgomery novel after doing the first four Anne of Green Gables novels in a couple of celebrated mini-series he turned to "Jane of Lantern Hill." I would have thought the ...
  
  











  



  
Go
Katie Holmes, Sarah Polley

Sony Pictures, 2000

Great entertainment
I recently caught a viewing of Go, at a independent theater in New York where director Doug Liman spoke after the showing. It seemed that he genuinely believed this was his best work (also did Swingers, and Mr and Mrs Smith), he seemed reminiscent of the time he was ...
  
  











  



  
The Claim
Peter Mullan, Milla Jovovich

MGM (Video & DVD), 2001

"They were like kings"
This is superior film making. The acting is excellent, the setting is meticulously authentic, the story is profound on a Biblical level. Michael Nyman's music is poignant. There is one scene when Milla Jovovich sings a song which alone makes the film worth watching. ...
  
  











  



  
Hands of a Stranger
Armand Assante, Blair Brown

Worldvision Hv Inc, 1998

it's not the hands of strangers you gotta worry about
Running over 3 hours long, this made for TV movie is well directed and noticably edited at a clip, except when time is needed to explore detail. It's no surprise that the narrative is based on a novel, since there are three plot strands, and it's to Larry Elikann's ...
  
  











  



  
Last Night
Jessica Booker, Genevičve Bujold

Universal Studios, 2000

Last Night
The Canadian film, "Last Night" is a speculative (rather than 'science') fiction based on the single premise that it is understood by one and all that the end of the world will occur at precisely twelve, midnight. The actual cause of the end remains unspecified: it is ...
  
  











  



  
The Sweet Hereafter
Ian Holm, Caerthan Banks

New Line Home Video, 1998

Bleak in theme, but amazingly well made.
A school bus careens off a snowy road and onto a frozen lake. Within seconds, the next act will change the many lives within a frosty upstate New York community. One father will turn to an extramarital affair, one girl will position herself to obtain the sweetest form ...
  
  











  



  
The Life Before This
Catherine O'Hara, Joe Pantoliano

First Look Pictures, 2001

..and here we are again.
"The Life Before This," never before has tradegy been displayed so beautifully. Out of jest one night, I was pacing up and down the aisles at the local video store. Nothing was looking good at all, and after just skimming titles, I decided to get 'int depth' about ...
  
  











  



  
Jerry & Tom
Maury Chaykin, Lindsey Connell

Walt Disney Video, 2001

A brilliant tale of two ordinary hit men.
This is the movie that brings you into the world of the ordinary hit man -- well not the machine gun tottling Mafioso gunmen we're so used to watching in the big gangster movies. But the ordinary hit man who does his job as a necessary means to a living. The job is ...

No Such Thing
Robert John Burke, Margrét Ákadóttir

MGM (Video & DVD), 2002

"I'm Not The Monster I Used To Be" ~ The Dissolution Of The Sacred
According to Plutarch (CE 45-125) the great Goat-God "Pan is Dead," dying just as the Christian faith was taking hold in the Mediterranean world, a classic case of out with the old and in with the new. However what if Plutarch was wrong, what if Pan hadn't died but ...
  
  











  



  
Exotica
Mia Kirshner, David Hemblen

Walt Disney Video, 1997

"You Have To Ask Yourself What Brought The Person To This Point?"
This is an undiscovered gem of a film with an incredibly inventive and powerful script that is sure to suprise and please. 'Exotica', a "Gentleman's Club", is the focal point of a world in search of meaning. Men come not just to watch beautiful women sensually dance in ...
