Margot at the Wedding (2007) 6/10 After a long period of estrangement, Margot ( Nicole Kidman ) arrives at the famiy home to attend her sister Pauline's ( Jennifer Jason Leigh ) wedding to Malcolm ( Jack Black ). A character study, particularly a study of an unpleasant character, is a tricky thing. A happy ending can betray whatever truth the character has revealed, an unhappy ending can be melodramatic...
Must be in a Bluuuues kinda mood. I’ve had the soundtrack to the movie Rush since it came out in December 1991 (Jason Patric, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Greg Allman as - what else - the drug dealer). Eric Clapton scored the movie, and contributed some extra songs too, most notably “Tears In Heaven“, written [...]
Still from Synecdoche New York I'm so confused right now. Is she planning on starring in a Jocelyn Wildenstein biopic? Does she have the mumps? My apologies if that's unkind but what the hell is going on!?! I thought she looked great in Margot at the Wedding --I mean aside from the dingy cinematography. [last year's interview with JJL if ya missed it]
Cinema is littered with failed film made by big stars turned first-time directors. Eddie Murphy's 'Harlem Nights,' Ethan Hawke's 'The Hottest State,' Alan Cumming and Jennifer Jason Leigh's 'The Anniversary...

I just read this sentence about the upcoming movie "Synecdoche, New York ". Look who's in it! It's a dream come true for a guy like me who loves middle aged (or thereabouts) women in movies: Jennifer Jason Leigh will next appear in Charlie ( Adaptation ) Kauffman's directorial debut Synecdoche, New York . Phillip Seymour Hoffman stars as a playwright but the true draw for some viewers might just be...
"The Machinist" created a stir four years ago because Christian Bale starved himself, reduced his body to a barely fleshed skeleton, in order to play the role of Trevor Reznik, a machinist suffering from a year long bout with insomnia who is going insane. As with "Margot at the Wedding", this movie felt like an actor's workshop for Christian Bale. He's brilliant portraying Trevor's descent into madness...
I experienced "Margot at the Wedding" as a 92 minute actors' workshop with two of the finest actors working (Jennifer Jason Leigh and Nicole Kidder) supported by Jack Black who held his own, whose absurd spirit and outrageous physical outbursts relieved the tension between Leigh and Kidder's characters. The question for me, then, in writing about this movie is whether this is what I want from a movie....
In the movie, "Georgia", Jennifer JasonLeigh is not Georgia. Mare Winningham is Georgia. Georgia ad Leigh's charater, Sadie, are sisters and their lives have gone in opposite directions. Georgia plays and sings folk music. She's hugely successful. She's composed, settled into family life on the farm that had been her parents'. She is the picture of serenity. Even when she performs, it seems that a...
I've written this before in my blog: I almost never watch a movie for escape. I almost always watch movies to learn more about the nature of human nature and the nature of the human condition. It's what I enjoy in movies, much like what I enjoy in poetry, plays, and books. I look elsewhere for escape. A friend who knows I'm this way emailed me the other day and highly recommended that I see "The Dark...
Plans for future posts: 1. A longish post about longing. 2. A bunch of posts reflecting on the longing I've been thinking about as portrayed in a bunch of movies I've watched lately. 3. I love watching middle-aged women act: Jennifer Jason Leigh, Patricia Clarkson, Joan Allen, Catherine Keener, Marcia Gay Hayden, Sigourney Weaver, Bebe Neuwirth to name a few. I'd like to expand on this list and reflect...

I had the strangest dream. I was on the back of a van and I looked like Jennifer Jason Leigh in eXistenZ . My Dad, who was Leland Palmer , drove up behind in a black Mini Cooper with silver go faster stripes crash bars. I was screaming and waving at him but he wouldn't look at me. It switched from day to night suddenly and then I was at the side of the road and I saw his car fly in a huge arc and nose...
