It may have the word extraordinary in the title, but the poster is definitely not that. We haven't covered a lot on EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES. I find this odd since the movie does have Harrison Ford in it. The movie is based on the true story of John Crowley (Brendon Fraser), who joins up with scientist Dr. Robert Stonehill (Harrison Ford) to develop a life-saving drug after his two children are diagnosed...

Those of you who are either scholars or obsessive dilettantes by nature will understand when I explain that the post I intended to write tonight has been temporarily derailed by too much digging. As John Crowley puts it , "The further in you go, the bigger it gets," and that's what happened tonight, as an Edmund Wilson quote on the cover of a favorite anthology of creepy tales led to a quick...

Endless Things is the fourth and final part of John Crowley's Aegypt sequence . I wrote in my review of Daemonomania (the third novel in the sequence) that a short review can never do justice to this breathtakingly complex series of novels. At one level it's a domestic drama set in the Faraway Hills, a rural area of north eastern America, at another a metaphysical interpretation of history, humanity...

Two Chicago cops tell the story of their suspension for being derelict of duty, a story of vice, alcoholism, drugs, cannibalism, marital infidelity, violent shootings, dead or dying children . . . and soon you begin to wonder how much more can the story take before descending into melodramatic TV cop drama, and then you realize not very much. Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman try hard to make the script...

Rejoice! It's time for another one of those rare moments where we get to talk about Brendan Fraser acting in a drama -- one that should get him a little more recognition than the smaller dramatic bits and thrillers he's taken on recently. See, he's co-starring with Harrison Ford in a pic called Extraordinary Measures , and the still above is the first from the film (via Cinema Blend ). Based on a...

Despite miscasting its stars as Chicago detectives, this Broadway production of Keith Huff's play is gritty stuff, writes Alexis Soloski I – possibly like women everywhere – have cheered myself with thoughts of Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman on many a dull evening. Now, on Broadway, we have both for the price of one: the pair are starring together in Keith Huff's A Steady Rain, a two-hander...
