Ella McCay: a Generous Movie in an Ungenerous Era
I was wholly involved, engaged and intrigued watching Ella McCay. We as a race should be more embarrassed by our obsession with finding new cool, cinematic ways to represent bullet trajectories.
Foggy, Indeed
Someone’s got to be the last remaining John Cusack completist.
How Cheap Trick Outlived Their Moment, and I’m Glad.
Even now, even all washed up, they still sound like Cheap Trick.
No Cult Favorite: BREAKING AWAY Is a Masterpiece
I trust Breaking Away completely. Simply and without strain, it remains one of the greatest and most truthful American films ever made.
Prescription for Chaos: HEADHUNTER and the Films (and Fantasies) of Larry Cohen
Larry Cohen made the outrageous into the outrageously insightful, always in his own voice, always on his own terms. And so it is with HEADHUNTER.
Invisible Ink: Brian De Palma’s AMBROSE CHAPEL and the Masterpiece That Wasn’t

Genre Discipline, Then Genre Sprawl: THE RIP
The Rip is great for a while. Then it isn’t. Worth a look.
When Entertainment Hurts: MARTY SUPREME
Undeniably a very good movie. But…
A Low-Tech Descent: Springsteen and the Sound of Silence
I found Scott Cooper’s Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere quite reasonable. Check it out.
