The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe (2005) Dir: Andrew Adamson Shrek co-director Adamson’s first live action film is based on a book I loved as a child.

Recommended THE MOVIE: " You don't speak Spanish, right? " There is a metafictional scene in the first act of The Limits of Control where Tilda Swinton, decked out as a 1960s blonde cowgirl of some kind, seemingly lays out the entire thesis of Jim Jarmusch's movie for the writer/director. She is talking to Isaach De Bankol , telling him about the kinds of movies she loves. She mentions the...
