Like fine wine, Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home has gotten better with age. It was too cheesy when it came out, even for Star Trek, the ultimate in SciFi fondue. That was then, this is now. It’s set in the 23rd Century and now, when Now was 1986. I remember that ’86 Now just as I remember n…

Big time action-comedies kind of got started with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy in 48 Hrs. Big stars, big action, big laughs – big time. Walter Hill was an action guy, a Western action guy. Directing megahunk Nolte, with a never funnier Murphy, set in San Francisco, his big hit paved the way f…

Frank Sinatra won a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical as the womanizing nightclub singer in Pal Joey. Sandwiched between the glamorous Rita Hayworth and the luscious Kim Novak, he’s at his lounge-lizard best in this mid-century paean to pre-liberation sexual politics. It’s a wh…

Sweet San Francisco – eccentric and accepting – takes wing in Judy Irving and Mark Bittner’s Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill. Telegraph Hill – as anyone who’s been there knows – is a wild nubbin overlooking Alcatraz. Fits that it would host a flock of jail-broke cherry-heads with a couple o…

Effectively two movies: the first, a boozy romp a la Mad Men; the second, a melodramatic horror of alcoholic insanity, complete with straight-jackets and padded rooms. The first is more fun. Isn’t it always, before ugly drunkenness spoils the party. The bubbly opening reels are a San Franc…

Saoirse Ronan and Laurie Metcalf are excellent in this heart-touching coming of age story. Saoirse is the self-named ‘Lady Bird’ – put in to Catholic school by her over bearing mom to save her from the streets of Sacramento. The story runs the usual gamut of parental relations, love, clique-y h… |

Brad Pitt hits a triple with Moneyball and then unexpectedly steals home. His Billy Beane strides through the National Pastime like a corporate buccaneer – smart, swaggering, fun – before receiving a surprising comeuppance from his daughter, a child of divorce. Together the personal and profe…

The true story of Oscar Grant is a bitter pill to swallow, in part due to the film’s focus on his struggle to pull away from his past and do better for himself, his daughter, and his family. History tends to keep a strong bond for better or worse and when it is compounded by prejudice, it can be… |
