Rudy is the first perfect boyhood football movie, if not necessarily the first overall perfect football movie. It beatifies a tough Irish-Catholic boy from Chicago who lionizes football, then plays it and is defined by it. Daniel ‘Rudy’ Ruettiger grew up craning his neck one state over, towa…

Perfect credits lead to a fitfully entertaining movie about some monumentally smug people in Heartburn. Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson – in his prime – lead the credits. The great Mike Nichols directs, fifteen years after directing Nicholson in the scandalous Carnal Knowledge…

I can’t say much more than simply see this documentary if you are either a Doors fan or a fan of 60’s and 70’s music lore. The iconic Jim Morrison had a mind that few could fully understand; The poetry in his music and the unpredictability of his life is something that many will talk about… |

Perhaps a movie past its time – when the Dallas Cowboys were TV America’s Team – but a rousing and funny movie nonetheless. Notable for a classic Nick Nolte man’s man performance, football action that for the first time seemed real, and a whiff of the larger changes going in 1970’s society outsi… |

An intense movie that will raise your heartbeat and keep it there through the film. I’ve never been a smuggler — but the heart-pounding sequence at the beginning of the movie really get to me. The brutality and craziness of the Turkish prison experience dropped my jaw and kept it there for pret… |

Turn it up! I’d done just that right before an opening title card instructed “This film should be played loud!” You don’t say. Clapton, Van Morrison, Dylan, Muddy Waters, Neil Young, the Band: Of course turn it up. The Last Waltz has been lauded as a landmark concert film since it appeared i…

François Truffaut’s The Man Who Loved Women hasn’t aged well. Perhaps that happens to every Lothario. It certainly seems to happen to movies about them. Nonetheless, this famous French film carries a certain fascination given that it was created by the legendary auteur behind "the Auteur Th…

It hasn’t aged well, this Seventies icon. Maybe because Woody Allen self-parodied himself in real life, or Left Wing Manhattan neurotics are no longer exotic characters, or topical gags don’t have much shelf life. “La-dee-da, la-dee-da.” Sure it’s still a benchmark movie. The Academy doesn’t …
