In the late Seventies, I used to be a film critic. I reviewed movies mostly for magazines, which meant I saw all the new releases at least three months prior to their release date.

Children of Heaven is an Iranian movie with subtitles about a boy who accidentally loses his sister’s worn out shoes after being sent to get them repaired, and must share his own worn out sneakers with her in a sort of relay while each attends school at different times during the day.He bargains with his sister not to tell his father that he has lost her shoes, as the father will beat both of them.This is a family literally living hand-to-mouth in a one-room rental with no, and I mean no, amenities, except a tea pot and television.Read more…The Cannes Film Festival - le Festival International du Film de Cannes

Antonia's Line – 2 Stars (Average)A disappointment for me. The postscript said "Winner of the 1995 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film and many other prestigious international honors, Antonia’s Line is the remarkable story of a woman who builds a new life with her daughter in a quiet Dutch village after World War II. Earthy, sexy, romantic and filled with laughter and warmth, it’s a joyous, multi-generational celebration of simple pleasures and enduring passions.Read more…Agent 007, James Bond & The Secret Cipher
A new James Bond Movie, Casino Royale will soon be reaching a movie theater near you.It is fairly common knowledge that the character of Bond was immortalised by the writer Ian Fleming and that he picked the name from a book title on his shelves, 'Birds of the West Indies' written by a Philadelphian ornithologist, James Bond. What appears to be a subject of debate though, is why he gave his fictional British secret agent the code name of 007.Read more…Getting on Oprah's Show

It’s tempting to just say this film is a great pick for Jack Black and Tenacious D fans and leave it at that. But “Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny” is so much more.

The comic book revolution in today's modern pop culture has been more or less unheralded. Although a major coup in the world of geekdom, the mainstream press has regarded the increase in mass-market comic book entertainment as nothing more than a passing trend.The popularity of comic book entertainment is no trend, nor will it pass any time soon.Read more…Will “LOST” Ever Be Found?
The rumors of its demise sadly over-calculated, LOST has settled into ratings numbers that secures it in the company of the best dramas on television. Had LOST managed to hold onto the 23million-plus it had in the beginning of its second series, I doubt ABC would be able to afford to produce it at this point. Any clue on what Matt Fox might demand for his LOST paycheck knowing the largest television audience in history was tuning in?Read more…Grey's Anatomy and Music: Everybody Wins

NBC’s Heroes was dubbed a “surprise” success, but should it have been? In times like this, when we are assaulted with fears of sudden danger everywhere, aren’t Heroes exactly what we need?

Over forty years ago, a movie theatre didn't need to be located in a shopping mall to attract sufficient patrons. As other small, privately owned businesses had done before them, small-town movies theatres survived -- and, in some cases, even thrived -- for several decades. One may still occasionally find independent theatres grinding away in small towns located far enough away from metropolitan areas, but one is more likely to find abandoned buildings with empty marquess that often resemble the rusted prows of old ships.Read more…
