This is from an LA Times review of a film based on book about a white family who take in a black kid who becomes a football star who is not a tackle with the Baltimore Ravens. Watching "The Blind Side" is like watching your favorite football team; you'll cheer when things go well, curse when they don't, and be reminded that in football, as in life, it's how you play the game that counts --...

Shadow of a Doubt (1943, USA) - Nice uncle Charlie comes to visit his small-town relatives. He brings large wads of cash, jewelry with other people's names on it, and a nihilistic philosophy of life. Watched it all. Thank Your Lucky Stars (1943, USA) - Self-congratulatory musical about Hollywood actors. Watched: 10 minutes, then fast-forwarded through the rest to see if it's also a patriotic war musical....

Every time a new film by the Coen brothers comes out, I dread having to hear from the same old so-and-so's who can't bear to slog through the Coens' peculiar brand of pessimism. The words "bleak" and "cynical" often pepper their reviews rather liberally, along with some gasp of regret that the brothers don't seem to have much sympathy for their characters. Jonathan Rosenbaum called...

Fun cover, huh? That's for John Morressy's enjoyable fantasy-versus-science-fiction story "Spirits from the Vasty Deep". I'm reading more of these magazines because all the books are packed up for the move. This was a really good issue. The best story here was "A Stage of Memory" by David Brin and his brother Daniel. Kenneth W. Ledbetter's "Outpost on Europa" has no great...

Saw this Frank Capra movie on TCM a while back, and is certainly seems appropriate for today. From 1931, Capra’s “American Madness.” Looking at the massive damage caused by the latest upheaval, it is sad to realize that the whole world has been used to make an unrealistic profit by some, and unfortunately some of those that caused [...]

I've been playing with some images for the shop of late. Thought I'd let you see... One is overtly an advertising image. The other just image I thought I might use in the shop, but loking at it, I reckon it could be reworked as advertising. If you've any comments or ideas, feel free to let me know. Also, since we're a small shop on a miniscule budget (advertising budget? what's that!?) please also...

Of course I wasn't really a kid when I first fell in love with Ann-Margret. After all she's only a few years older than me. In fact I was already a very hormonal 14 year old when I first saw her in 1961 in her first movie, "Pocketful of Miracles," (which was a remake of Frank Capra's 1933 movie "Lady for a Day" - both versions were directed by Capra.) But it was her 1964 movie with...

Poetry hit the big screen in some big and lasting ways in the 1930s. James Whale, for example, opened 1935's Bride of Frank- enstein by staging a discussion between Percy Shelley, Lord Byron, and Mary Shelley about the nature of Mary's horror story which Whale himself had brought to movie theaters in 1931. (That's Byron, who in the film calls himself "England's greatest sinner," pictured...

You know a film is bad when the only quote the studio can scare up for the ad campaign comes from Larry King. And yes, the King serves up a blurb for the new horror misfire “The Fourth Kind.” But that’s not the lamest quote you can find to sell a movie. Consider the one used on [...] Related posts: WWTW Rewind - ‘King Kong’ (1976) WWTW Rewind - ‘Elf’ (2003)...
