Oliver Stone’s 9/11 movie was toothless and very different from his usual work. World Trade Center was, putting it mildly, a disappointment. But it may have just been his opening salvo on the new state of the world; it turns out that Stone and Paramount secretly optioned the book Jawbreaker, CIA agent Gary Berntsen’s account … Continue reading
Way back, I used to do this little column called the Poster Attack!. It was a sarcastic little thing, sometimes existing solely to bash silly artwork but sometimes just simply a showcase for the latest film art. Since we have enough silly columns, I’ll try to get back to
The love for Tim Burton’s (and Henry Selick’s) The Nightmare Before Christmas is widespread and powerful in a way akin to A Christmas Story, neither of which I’m what you’d call a devotee of. I understand it, I’m just part of it. That said, when I heard there was a 3-D digital re-release of the … Continue reading

Sofia Coppola could be a character in one of her own movies. She’s very quiet, and every answer here was given in a halting, sometimes mumbling manner. I don’t know if she was tired or uncomfortable, but the style of her films – big, empty spaces where dialogue would be – makes a lot more … Continue reading

The Crypt-O-Gram message board discussion. For Crypt-O-Gram #7 I present another “Slider” puzzle. To solve, create yourself an Excel grid of 10 columns and 10 rows. Highlight the 5th column (“E”). For each row I’ve come up with a 1-word film title and provide clues to those films below. I’ve taken the last names of … Continue reading
Sofia Coppola’s movies are open and sparse, focusing on the things unsaid and the moments in between the momentous.
