...or Watergate: How two reporters brought down a President
"All the President's Men" is a superb account of Washington Post reporters Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward's tenacious investigation into the Watergate break-in that would eventually lead to the resignation of President Richard Nixon. Director Alan J. Pakula uses the spareness that he brought to "The Parallax View" two years earlier to create a sense of paranoia and evoke the awesome machine ...

Excellent, engrossing, substantial complexity --
and one of Gene Hackman's greatest performances. The man is so real, and the character so believable, you'd think Hackman were the character. Except he isn't, because the character is a hackman, while Hackman is an extraordinary actor. Probably Cruise's best performance, better than in "Color of Money". Garey Busey does a perfect turn, and Holly Hunter get's to vamp. The only film in ...

The Greatest Business Film Ever Made
This is, quite simply, the greatest film ever made about business and the capital markets. Wall Street is brilliant and infinitely quotable. There are just so many good lines in the film delivered to perfection by Michael Douglas. This is certainly Michael Douglas' best work, for which he most deservedly won the Oscar. The acting, writing, and directing are phenomenal and culminated in a true ...

An existential odyssey
Into the Wild will not be to everyone's liking. Some people will dislike the protagonist, Christopher McCandless, and others will find the movie's pacing to be slow. Yet, I was fascinated by and even a little envious of Chris's dogged attempt to find meaning in life and his disregard for other people's expectations. Like the ascetic monks who would wander into the desert to find enlightenment, ...

Ken Burns is the best
As someone who's working on a novel about western 19th century America, this documentary is amazing. The questions it leaves us with are one's of wonder--how did they survive? They traipsed across the country in a boat, in horseback, and by foot. And back. They survived weather at -38 degrees; climbed mountains only to find more mountains, traversed deserts only to find more deserts. And through ...

One of my favorite movies
Movie showed up on time and in perfect condition. As much as I enjoy this movie (and have for years), the producers comments about the making of the movie were even more enjoyable and interesting then the movie itself. I will not give away any of what I learned. Also the comments were quite substantial. So I spent one evening watching the comments and another night watching the movie.

Amazing motion picture!
Julia is simply a perfect movie. Jane Fonda's performance is one of her very best. And Fred Zinnemann's direction is flawless. Alvin Sargent's screenplay movements between past and present and from present to future are so smooth and fascinating. Just a brilliant movie all around. Beth

My favorite "non-greatest hits" album from Neil Diamond
I've had this CD for over 20 years now. It's a masterpiece in its own right. When you listen to a Neil Diamond song, you are focused on that one song as a great moment for Neil, even if the rest of his album may not impress you. But this album of "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" is something to be cherished from Neil Diamond as a whole concept, a project. On this album, Neil Diamond's voice ...

Conspiracy nutters need not reply
Capricorn One This is one my favorites. When it came out the Apollo missions were the state of the art space craft. So that's why these astronauts look so crammed together for the (impossibly long) mission to Mars. If they did a remake today, they would no doubt use something more like a shuttle with some room to exercise in! That quibble aside, the premise behind Capricorn One's plot is ...

Superb Acting and a Good Story
Although some of the things shown in the movie were not true and the character of Billy Sunday was a composite of several people and not a real person, the important basic facts were true and remarkable. Carl Brashear did in fact lose a leg from a shipboard accident and did come back from that tradegy to become a master diver with an artificial leg. And he faced a lot of racism. The man had ...

Hal Holbrook mesmerizes as Mark Twain
Much as Mark Twain had to do in his life, Hal Holbrook mesmerizes audiences with his portrayal of Mark Twain, the first stand-up comic this nation has ever known. Hal Halbrook has performed his ever changing Mark Twain stage act before he became a household name in the movies. It took a made for TV special about Mark Twain by Hal Holbrook to rekindle this nation's curiosity about him. A lot ...

You gotta love Stephen King
This is the best of all presentation of selected Stephen King's short stories. After viewing it at least 12 times, I still love it. Some of the lines have become family phrases, such as "Meteor s___!" and "What would you do without me, Henry?" The outstanding actors are outstanding. Creepshow is a great addition to your King library.

Jim Carey at his best
We've always loved the Majestic, but it's especially poignant watching it now, as America is at war. The small town that rescues Jim Carey's character is what we all want; the sincere sharing of joys and sorrows with others that have been where we've been. I don't know why The Majestic ended up being a relative sleeper. (For that matter, I don't know why Saving Grace, Pure Luck, and other ...
