    by Katie Walsh on June 18, 2013

    The documentary "Our Nixon" by Penny Lane serves as a bit of a complication to the popular narrative of Richard Nixon as our most scandalized and scheming of Presidents.

    L.A. Film Fest Review: 'In A World...' Directed By & Starring Lake Bell

    by Katie Walsh on June 18, 2013

    In a world... where female writers are scarce and female writer/directors even more so, Lake Bell has done both with panache in her feature debut, “In A World...” That the film itself is a meta-commentary on the persistent and open sexism in Hollywood is even more impressive.

    by Beth Hanna on June 17, 2013

    What’s in a voice? Power, for one thing. The power to tell people things -- anything from an update on a global crisis to the general gist of a young adult movie franchise. This idea is at the center of Lake Bell’s hilarious, sincere and boldly feminist comedy “In a World,” which she wrote, directed...

    Review: Disney/Pixar's 'Monsters University'

    by Drew Taylor on June 17, 2013
