    REVIEW | An American Tale: Todd Haynes' "I'm Not There"

    by Chris Wisniewski on November 19, 2007

    In the next month, every film critic with a byline or blog will recap the past year in movies and pick ten films as 2007's finest. More likely than not, these lists will serve as springboards for an endless series of harangues on the declining quality of cinema. (Do we really need to be reminded tha...

    REVIEW | A Snark Tale: Frank L. Anderson & Barry Poltermann's "The Life of Reilly"

    by Nick Pinkerton on November 14, 2007

    I'd guess that most people under 30 who know of Charles Nelson Reilly at all remember him as played by a leisure-suited, compulsively spectacle-tweaking Alec Baldwin on an SNL "Inside the Actors Studio" skit. The joke, as always, was that Will Ferrell's James Lipton was prostrating himself before a ...

    REVIEW | Mean Girls: Noah Baumbach's "Margot at the Wedding"

    by Michael Rowin on November 11, 2007

    It's with great disappointment I report that "Margot at the Wedding," Noah Baumbach's follow-up dramedy, is not only nowhere near as sharp as its predecessor, "The Squid and the Whale," but a failure in its own right. Leaving behind "Squid"'s relatable adolescent's-eye view on divorce for a hackneye...

    REVIEW | The Earth Trembles: Joel and Ethan Coen's "No Country for Old Men"

    by Michael Koresky on November 6, 2007

    The term "return to form" may be overused, but it certainly applies to the Coen Brothers' new adaptation of Cormac McCarthy's novel "No Country for Old Men" -- in its visual economy, maddeningly beautiful symmetry, and eccentric mundanity the film is a reminder of why the Coens were initially tagge...

    REVIEW | Lost in the Supermarket: Julien Temple's "Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten"

    by Nick Pinkerton on October 31, 2007

    By the year 2015, any band that made the cover of NME in the Seventies will have been the subject of either a feature-length documentary (with commentary by Bono) or frontman biopic. As one to whom pop music and film both have both meant a great deal, I can't understand how this arrangement benefits...

    REVIEW | Me, Myself & I: Ash Christian's "Fat Girls"

    by Michael Koresky on October 30, 2007

    The indie gay cinema movement in America was a necessary response not only to mainstream studio filmmaking but also to the hetero bias of other "alternative" cinema avenues; because of the outsider status of the films it was once difficult to too harshly criticize their narrative and aesthetic fault...

    REVIEW | Star Power: Theodore Braun's "Darfur Now"

    by Indiewire on October 29, 2007

    "Darfur Now," Theodore Braun's infectiously optimistic, if perfunctorily realized, documentary about the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Sudan arrives in theaters at a crucial moment. While the civil war in that wartorn region rages unabated, demanding more international visibility, the wave that br...

    REVIEW | Fallen Down: Anthony Hopkins's "Slipstream"

    by Indiewire on October 24, 2007

    William Gaddis's slim final novel, "Agape Agape," takes the form of a stream-of-consciousness rant delivered by a highly erudite narrator on his death bed that encompasses scattered memories, ruminations on late 19th and 20th century Western culture, and elderly grumblings about the experience of mo...
