Lower Depths, TheLower Depths, The (Donzoko) (1957)
3 stars (Good Enough) It does not try to hide its origins as a play – the story unfolds in a limited amount of space, it is very heavy on dialogue and there is a good amount of melo/dramatic acting.
DVD $49.95 $37.45
When We Were KingsWhen We Were Kings (1996)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) It includes quite a bit in its economical running time – as well as the fight it sets the scene with musical items, interviews, monologues from you know who, and describes the political scene in Zaire.
DVD $19.95 $14.95, $19.95
Diving Bell and the Butterfly, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, The (Le Scaphandre et Le Papillon) (2007)Aro Favourite
4 stars (Very Good) It must have been a physically and mentally challenging part for Mathieu Amalric to perform. The director does well to keep things from being over sentimental and to mix the scenes to avoid too many being staged consecutively in the hospital.
DVD $20 $15
Skulls, TheSkulls, The (2000)
2 stars (Good Try) There is quite a bit of movement in the bowels of this campus.
Waltz With BashirWaltz With Bashir (Vals Im Bashir) (2008)Recommended
4 stars (Very Good) The animation technique was impressive and was effectively used to complement an ambitious screenplay that for the most part works.
DVD $19.95 $14.95
Musketeer, TheMusketeer, The (2002)
2 stars (Good Try) No contest between Chambers (a flower pot) v Roth (a terrific baddie). A fairer match up would have been Roth v Curry the baddie from "The Three Musketeers" (1993).
James & IseyJames & Isey (James and Isey) (2021)Recommended
2 stars (Good Try) Charmingly done. A slice of a long life.
DVD $29.95
World According to Garp, TheWorld According to Garp, The (1982)Recommended
2 stars (Good Try) A more compact screenplay would have kept the better scenes closer together. Lithgow raised the interest level twofold.
Day Will Dawn, TheDay Will Dawn, The (1942)
2 stars (Good Try) The screenplay is watchable and has the expected romantic distraction but this does allow a bit of screen time for Deborah Kerr. There is also talent in the supporting cast which does help you get through the night.rn
Three Men and a Little LadyThree Men and a Little Lady (1990)
2 stars (Good Try) Moving the screenplay across the water enabled the casting to be boosted with talents such as Fiona Shaw and others in the supporting roles.
