Excited for America

July 21st, 2011 | POSTED BY Mike Sullivan

If I had a time machine, I would go back and find 10-year-old me. I would be easy to find, probably in my bedroom reading comic books. I would tell myself that in the future, comic book movies have finally become cool. Of course, 10-year-old…

What We’re Watching – 7/20/11

July 20th, 2011 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Here’s a random thought: have you ever walked in to a movie and expected it to be bad, but watched it anyway? Maybe the genre is one you don’t enjoy, or it deals with a subject matter that you find unappealing—but, against all your better…

My Favorite Movie – Raiders of the Lost Ark

July 19th, 2011 | POSTED BY Mike Sullivan

An Appreciation – The Umbrellas of Cherbourg

July 18th, 2011 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

Sometimes, when I’m in the mood, I like to sing. I’m not very good at it, but that doesn’t stop me from trying. The characters in Jacques Demy’s film The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964) like to sing as well, and luckily they are much better…

What We’re Watching 7/13/11

July 13th, 2011 | POSTED BY Benjamin Nason

Many more intelligent people than I have already summarized life as a series of dueling, chaotic and organized events. John Lennon said, life is what happens while you’re busy making other plans. Roberto Begnini’s character Bob, in Jim Jarmusch’s 1985 film Down by Law, makes…

Bird Watching – An Open Letter to Penny Marshall

July 11th, 2011 | POSTED BY Brandi Sperry

Dear Ms. Marshall, Charm is a very hard thing to achieve. Charm is borderline undefinable, yet when someone is reaching for it and not getting there, everyone can tell, and the result is awkward and painful. As I write this, I’m watching, probably for the…

An Appreciation – Seven Samurai

July 11th, 2011 | POSTED BY Allen Almachar

If there is one word to describe Akira Kurosawa’s masterpiece, Seven Samurai (1954), it is “epic.” Epic in scale, in ambition, in scope, and in length. At a meaty two hundred and seven minutes, the film is an adventurous experience in and of itself. However,…
