1971–Daniel Ellsberg, a top-level Vietnam War strategist, concludes the war is based on a decade of lies. He leaks 7,000 pages of top-secret documents to the The New York Times, a daring act of conscience that leads directly to Watergate, President Nixon’s resignation and the end of the Vietnam War.

I first saw Vincere when it had its American premiere during last year’s New York Film Festival, but the film – directed and co-written (with Daniella Ceselli) by Marco Bellocchio — is so smart, dark and telling that it easily rewards a second viewing. Marco Bellocchio’s skills as a filmmaker have [...]
An un-missable look at one of the art world’s most fascinating controversies and a celebrated selection of the Toronto, New York and AFI Film Festivals, Don Argott’s gripping documentary THE ART OF THE STEAL chronicles the long and dramatic struggle for control of the Barnes Foundation, a private collection of art [...]
One of the most outstanding and critically acclaimed French films of the year comes from celebrated director Abdellatif Kechiche, whose L’esquive stormed the Cesars (French Oscars) in 2005, winning four awards including Best Film. This new drama - a touching and resoundingly humanistic story set in a small harbour in the [...]

Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation–and unable to escape–they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears [...]

Saw this a week ago in Los Angeles at the El Capitan Theater. If you’re expecting a Pixar caliber story - look elsewhere. If you’re looking for Pixar artistry, this doesn’t quite reach those dizzying heights. But if you’re after quality Disney entertainment for the little ones in your family (especially the female ones) [...]
Wall-E (Widescreen Single-Disc Edition) Buy From Amazon
Though there have been some exceptional movies so far this year there but there have been few which I would call a classic. With WALL-E, things have just changed. WALL-E isn’t only the best film of 2008 so far, it is a pure masterpiece. From start to finish, the [...]
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Single Disc)
Looking forward to a bit of Indiana Jones nostalgia, we buythis DVD with high hopes. High expectations may
be what thwarted us, but this one just didn’t hold up to the original Indiana Jones trilogy. There were dangerous insects, collapsing temples, car chases–all the requisite stuff [...]

I watched this film three times, trying as hard as I could to find a single flaw, a moment that wasn’t quite right–the look on someone’s face, a snatch of music, a camera angle, a character’s movement, a view of a street or room. There’s nothing. Every second of the film, from the truly unforgettable [...]
