"How did it feel to watch your 16 year-old self onscreen?" "I know, right, what with the Camus-reading-Sobranie-smoking-dating-older-men thing." This is the second time we've witnessed a production where Peter Sarsgaard seduces Carey Mulligan, only the young woman in "An Education" gets to thrive unlike Nina in Chekov's "The Seagull." "An Education,"...

[SPOILERS] The final episode before an enforced hiatus, after which the rest of season 2 will be "burned off" in double-bills during December (before the axe surely drops), "Belonging" was a strong episode that again provided ammunition for my belief Dollhouse should have been built around Dichen Lachman... In season 1's "Needs" we were teased about how Sierra (Lachman)...

[SPOILERS] Quite a peculiar episode this week, but it found an interesting wrinkle within the show's elastic concept. We open with an acutely unnerving scene where man-child Terry Karrens ( Joe Sikora ) is playing with his own "dolls" (a posed tableau of an all-female family, using real women he's captured and immobilized with drugs.) When his "Aunt Sheila" ( Danielle Langlois )...

I've expressed frustration with FOX's Dollhouse in the past; the series seemed always out of touch with its own potential, focusing on engagements of the week or fitting up Eliza Dushku in outrageous ensembles rather than delving into the heart of darkness within the Dollhouse itself. With the notable exception of the unaired post-apocalyptic bookend "Epitaph One," the series hasn't come...

Spoilers for tonight's "Dollhouse" coming up just as soon as you tell me about the retirement plan... In an ideal world, I would devote a lot of time to extolling the virtues of "Belonging," easily the strongest episode of this uneven second season of "Dollhouse" and one of the better episodes, period, of this up-and-down series. I would write once again about how terrific...

[SPOILERS] The season 2 premiere is so unfathomable to newcomers that it almost feels like creator Joss Whedon knows the show's days are numbered, so he's just going to play to the existing crowd. After a turbulent first season (with many early lows and a smattering of later highs), the sci-fi drama was renewed on the back of DVR ratings. "Vows" shows signs of resilience and growth, but it's...

By Veronika Ferdman Ostensibly there are two types of educations—of the school and life variety. And as Lone Scherfig’s often luscious-looking and sentimental An Education proposes, one often comes at the expense of the other. Jenny (Carey Mulligan) is a very bright, 16-year-old Oxford hopeful in 1960s England. Her life is governed by English papers and interminable Latin translations as...

See Pierce Brosnan In Polanski's The Ghost We can get our first glimpse of Pierce Brosnan (looking very Bondian, even at 56) as a former British Prime Minister in Roman Polanski's The Ghost in a very brief trailer on the film's official website . While Polanski finished filming The Ghost prior to his arrest in Switzerland last month, he had not completed post-production, so the film's future has been...
