    One Good Turn...: Anne Fontaine’s “The Girl from Monaco”

    by Eric Hynes on July 2, 2009

    French romantic comedies are the art-house import equivalent of pimped-out Hollywood blockbusters. Both appeal to a wide and diffuse target audience — moderately cultured bourgeois and pop thrill seekers — and both are basically critic-proof. Where Michael Bay obliterates scrutiny with fireballs and...

    Wave Goodbye: Agnes Varda’s “The Beaches of Agnes”

    by Michael Koresky on June 30, 2009

    Is the 81-year-old Agnes Varda a tireless self-promoter or self-eulogizer? After watching her lyrical, free-associative autobiography “The Beaches of Agnes” it might seem silly to even bother creating a distinction. In the past decade or so, this oft-named “grandmother of the French New Wave,” who h...

    Miles of Bad Road: Jennifer Lynch's "Surveillance"

    by Eric Hynes on June 25, 2009

    In one of the most spectacular flameouts of recent American film, Jennifer Lynch went from hot-shit prodigy to laughingstock with one wacko, lazily maligned movie: 1993's Razzie-approved "Boxing Helena." It's taken David's daughter 16 years to revive her career, but judging from her follow-up, "Surv...

    Coming of Age: Stephen Frears's "Cheri"

    by Michael Koresky on June 23, 2009

    Stephen Frears's version of Colette's novel "Cheri," adapted by Christopher Hampton, is ostensibly an examination of an aging Michelle Pfeiffer. A retired, past-her-prime courtesan in belle epoque Paris, Pfeiffer's Lea de Lonval still wears her beauty well, yet the lines on her washed-out visage are...

    The Game Remains The Same: Woody Allen's "Whatever Works"

    by Eric Kohn on June 17, 2009

    Marked by interchangeably trite and witty dialogue, "Whatever Works" is the definition of a minor Woody Allen movie. The director's triumphant return to New York City after several years of European excursions finds him in familiar, if not exemplary, form. Most people on the Allen bandwagon will lik...

    Small Change: Tatia Rosenthal’s “$9.99”

    by Jeff Reichert on June 16, 2009

    Animated cinema geared specifically for adults is an elusive proposition. Even if Pixar’s recent films (especially “Up” and last year’s “Wall*E”) and Nick Park’s Aardman entertainments have truly embodied that slippery archetype “fun for the whole family,” the mainstream of animation remains fart j...
