Sun, 25 October 2009 Two from director Spike Jonze. First, the highly anticipated adaptation of Maurice Sendak's Where The Wild Things Are. Then Jeff and Lisa revisit 1991's Being John Malkovich with its bizarre yet brilliant screenplay by Charlie Kaufman. Also Jeff has a fun, nostalgic night at the drive-in with Couple's Retreat and also checks out Michael Moore's Capitalism: A Love Story. Plus Lisa gives her thoughts on the Jonathan Demme documentary Jimmy Carter Man From Plains and also Elizabeth: The Golden Age. http://www.filmednotstirred.com/ Comments[0] |
Tue, 13 October 2009 A look at actresses-turned-directors. First up, Drew Barrymore's directorial debut Whip It, featuring great performances by Ellen Page, Marcia Gay Harden and Daniel Stern. Then a look back at Penny Marshall's 1988 Big, in which we all saw what actor Tom Hanks was capable of bringing to the table. Also Jeff digs Adam, finds Taking Woodstock mediocre, and has fun revisiting Die Hard and the genius of director John McTiernan. Plus Lisa enjoys Mrs Henderson Presents and State Of Play, finds Ghost Town enjoyable, and also really recommends Charlie Wilson's War. http://www.filmednotstirred.com Comments[0] |
