Color Me Kubrick
Good 66 Points 2005

Color Me Kubrick isn’t for everyone. It was worth viewing for me because of its lens into the London show biz scene and its masterful Malkovich performance. I’d wager the more you know show business the more you’ll like this true show biz story about some nasty funny business. BTW, it’s also …

Catch Me If You...

Indeed, it feels like an old-time movie set in the Rap Era.

$5 a Day has three main assets: classic Christo…
