Hey Harry. Last night I saw a test screening for Defiance in Westminster, Colorado. Defiance is the true story of three Jewish brothers who hide a community of Jews in the Belarussian forest during WWII. It stars Daniel Craig, Liev Schreiber, and Jamie Bell as the three brothers. It was directed by Edward Zwick (Glory, Blood Diamond). There, now that we have the basics out of the way let's get to what...

If you were let down by the Punisher: War Zone trailer that just arrived, then watch this trailer for Miracle at St. Anna instead. I don't have a gripe with Spike Lee, in fact I think he's a great director, and this trailer for his latest film proves it. Miracle at St. Anna chronicles the [...]

This poster isn't that impressive, but I'm giving Defiance another mention because it deserves it. When I caught The Fall at The Landmark in Los Angeles last weekend, I saw the trailer for this again on the big screen and damn does it look good. Defiance is about three Jewish brothers who escape from Poland [...]

I did these back in March, and now that there's been a smidgen of new information about the movies in play, it's time to re-do them. There isn't much overhauling to be done, which I'm saying speaks well of my original picks. Or else my wrong-headed stubbornness. I prefer the one where I'm brilliant, though.

Imagine a TV show that has an all female house share with a male house share across the corridor. They all get on famously, they hang out together, fall out and hell some even date each other. Sounds like Friends right? No it is an internet show called Quarterlife that revolves around the lives of a group of twenty something creatives. The show is a coming of age series that tackles all the issues...

Quarterlife, a show I praised back in January, premiered on NBC this past Tuesday. It was anything but a success for the network or the show’s producers; in fact, NBC experienced its worst ratings in 20 years for that Tuesday night timeslot. The ratings were so abysmal, Quarterlife was canceled after one [...]

Question: What dubious honor do Anchorwoman and quarterlife have in common? Answer: They're both one-and-out shows. After just one airing, NBC has already decided to pull the plug on its experimental project. (Apparently the network wasn't feeling quite daring anymore.) Quarterlife - a project created by My So-Called Life ‘s Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick - was an internet hit long before it...

Quarterlife is living proof that works in one medium does not necessarily translate well into another Medium. The Internet series that features short 7 to 9 minute episodes has done extremely well, bringing in huge amounts of hits. NBC attempted to transition the series to TV, and to say the least the results are disappointing. The [...]
