David Thomson on Isabelle Huppert
The Guardian (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009
David Thomson: I doubt that in the history of the movies we've ever before had women in their 50s standing above all others. But Isabelle Huppert is one 'Who the hell is Isabelle Huppert?" The question rang through the offices of United Artists nearly 30 years ago, when Michael Cimino tried to cast the role of Ella in Heaven's Gate. The executive in charge of production, Steven Bach, later wrote:...

Look to Luton for the General Election Trend
Guy Fawkes' blog (Free subscription) | 11/03/2009
Guido has been saying for some time that this election may well exceed the 1945 election for clearing out incumbent MPs. The number of troughing MPs retiring or being thrown out by electors is going to be huge. As well as the macro-political environment and the visceral anti-political feeling that covers the land [...]

Sophie Calle: Talking to Strangers, Whitechapel Gallery
Helen Smith (Free subscription) | 10/30/2009
Last night I went to Sophie Calle's Exhibition Talking to Strangers at the Whitechapel Gallery . It's the English-language version of her exhibition Prenez Soin de Vous, first seen in French in 2007. The exhibition is in an art gallery, and therefore beautifully presented, but it's about ideas and language, and would be equally at home in the British Library or some other museum seeking to attract...

BLACK ADDER: ULTIMATE COLLECTION - REMASTERED - DVD Revew
The Moviezzz Blog (Free subscription) | 10/29/2009
In the 1980’s and early 1990’s, after Monty Python and before Ricky Gervais, British comedy snobs, like myself, would worship one man. Rowan Atkinson. Atkinson and writer Richard Curtis created some of the decades funniest moments. The two are probably best known for the creation of MR. BEAN . That almost silent character is still a classic, having continued in two recent films. Not quite...

The BBC recently released two of their reality television satires on DVD — one worth checking out, and one a disappointment. The Life and [...]

Filed under: Other Comedy Shows , TV on DVD , OpEd , British TV When I was a kid, I remember seeing episodes of a couple of strange British shows on my local PBS affiliate in Rochester, NY. I never caught them regularly, not even sure when they aired, but I remember one of them was a peculiar little period piece with some funny gags, and a storyline I never completely grasped. I learned later this...
