The Bridges of Madison County is a lovely film, taking a so-so book and really finding a depth and beauty to it. From the excerpts I've read, so-so is a generous description. The movie is beautiful, though--probably second only to Unforgiven as far as my favorite Eastwood films are concerned, so mu...

In Best Picture, I'll replace Sense and Sensibility with The Bridges of Madison County , the chick-flick--which is very much an Eastwood film--that probably would've gotten several more nominations had it been released late in the year, rather than in summer. In Best Film Editing, I'm going to repl...

He was probably my first favorite actor, the first whose films I would watch because he was in them. (This was when I was seven or eight.) This meant seeing some bad movies, like The Far Horizons --with Donna Reed(!) as Sacajawea--some interesting failures like The Buccaneer (Anthony Quinn's sole d...

Thanks for that, Damien. I've been going through 1949 films a lot recently, via Netflix, and TCM schedules, and this is one I had overlooked. Speaking of 1949, Raoul Walsh's Colorado Territory , which TCM aired yesterday (I DVR'd and watched last night) airs again Wednesday night, early Thursday mo...

Why else woudldthey be talking about casting Robert Duvall as Cheney, Tommy Lee Jones as Rumsfeld, Jeffrey Wright as Colin Powell and Toby Jones as Karl Rove? Sounds like disastrous casting, given that the actors range in age from late seventies to forty, and their real-life conterparts range from ...

as if that noxious final shot weren't enough, he had to name Jones's son AND Theron's son after the same Biblical character referenced in the title? Theron's son was named David, after the character the title story references, while Tommy Lee Jones's son was named Michael. I can see not thinking Jo...

Here are a few facts for you...Whether or not the producers and audience turned against her as a result of these photos, she stayed on the show much longer than either David H. or Frenchie Davis did. Since you're focused on the facts, here is a correction to your fact: Antonella Barba was not on Id...

I don't know what gave me the bigger shock this morning, the 300% increase in my medical prescription charges or seeing teh great Gay Divorcee replaced by The Scarlet Emress while such non-entities as Here Comes the Navy and The White Parde remain untouched. I'm not eliminating anything I haven't s...
