I haven’t played D&D in years, so remind me – do clerics get a Stinking Cloud spell? If so, Viggo Mortensen, the smelliest hunk in Hollywood, is the perfect casting in Teresa, a Spanish language film. He’ll be playing a cleric opposite the impossibly hot Paz Vega, who will in turn be playing the mystic … Continue reading

Niki Caro’s last film, Whale Rider, is a favorite of mine. It’s a triumphant story of the empowerment of one Moari girl in New Zealand, but it’s the kind of film that makes you feel like a better person just for having watched. North Country is also about the empowerment of a single female, but … Continue reading
Doom, the latest video game turned into a movie, presents us with a cinematic first. In the film a character dies and then gets a free life. It’s during the much vaunted “first person shooter” scene – our hero is overtaken by an enemy and knocked down. In a truly amazing moment of bizarre filmmaking, … Continue reading
