Just caught this last night. The Coen Brothers are in usual fine form with this black comedy set in and around Washington D.C. Sure the characters are cartoonish, the plot convoluted, and there is plenty of actor-showboating (all complaints from critics) but, hey, it’s a Coen Brothers’ film - what were they expecting. Go [...]

[ October 11, 2008 4:00 pm to October 12, 2008 9:00 pm. ] A mind-bender from David Lynch. Saw this first with my wife in Paris and left the theater cursing him for drawing us in so completely to a story that, in the end, didn’t add up. Storylines ended no where, characters changed personality mid-film, heavy build up to symbols that then didn’t fit in the story. [...]

Marc Caro’s throbbing, disturbing tale of two new arrivals on a putrid penal craft in a forsaken cosmos posits that in space, no one can hear your screaming symbolism. The dank, arresting visual style Caro perfected with then co-helmer Jean-Pierre Jeunet on ”Delicatessen” and “City of Lost Children” and on latter’s ”Alien: Resurrection” is alive and well [...]
[ October 16, 2008; 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm. ] “When we show you pictures of napalm victims, you’ll shut your eyes. You’ll close your eyes to the pictures. Then you’ll close them to the memory.
