Cut

If you are like me, you’re always on the lookout for a new ass-kicking horror film that will change the face of the genre as we know it. Well, don’t get your hopes up, because ’Cut’ isn’t that film. As a matter of fact, ’Cut’ takes a giant [...]

All The Pretty Horses

Ted Tally. Matt Damon. Billy Bob Thornton. What do these three gentlemen have in common? A big fat Oscar a piece for their screenwriting talents, that’s what. Put these three in a room, throw in a best selling novel, and one could expect a pretty darn [...]

Triumph Of The Will

May 14, 2001 // 0 Comments

Leni Riefenstahl’s notorious propaganda film "Triumph of the Will" is a mixed bag – even more so if you are indeed German, as I am. I had never had the chance to see this film before, as it seems to be censored in Germany, and was indeed [...]

Shadow Of The Vampire

Only a few defining images from the silent film era still remain as a part of our collective consciousness — Charlie Chaplin’s ambling gait, Harold Lloyd dangling from a clock tower, the robot Maria from "Metropolis," and, of course, [...]
