The DVD Report #17
Oscar has never been kind to films made in languages other than English. Even in the waning days of silent films when all films shown in the U.S. were released with English subtitles, masterpieces such as Carl Theodore Dreyer’s The Passion of Joan of Arc and G.W. Pabst’s Pandora’s Box (both of which are available…

Film Preview: Eye of the Dolphin (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C+ Review: The best that can be said is that it’s a pleasing, nautical shade of green. Otherwise, it’s just a girl holding onto a dolphin, which could be an image from any overly-common television…

Film Preview: Closing Escrow (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: There is no style or quality to this poster. It feels like every bit of it was an after thought, for if it were planned, I don’t know how the creators could have…

Film Preview: I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: C- Review: There aren’t many cheeses that are that shade of orange, but the poster uses it anyway to dominate the man’s head at the bottom holding a boquet a bit too high for any…

Film Preview: Reservation Road (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B- Review: My only Reservation about the poster is how Jennifer Connelly got face time and Mira Sorvino got none. Neither seems to play a central role in the film dominated by Joaquin Phoenix and…

Film Preview: Feel the Noise (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D+ Review: Really? This is the best they could come up with? I know the trailer suggests the film’s just going to be another quickly-forgotten rap-love-story pic, but did they have to make the poster…

Film Preview: I’m Not There (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: B Review: Using Cate Blanchett’s Dylan head to showcase the stars is unusual since she apparently has such a short part in the film. However, the silhouette is at least such that it can be…

The DVD Report #16
I began going to the movies in earnest fifty years ago, the summer I was 13. Many of the films I saw in theatres in 1957, as well as many of that year’s films I’ve since caught up with, are currently available on DVD. The year’s big awards winner, and still deserving of all its…

Film Preview: Silk (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: A- Review: Although I don’t get the way the title is displayed, the poster is nothing if not evocative. The Japanese girl that hides in his heart and mind looks demure as he holds his…

Film Preview: Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007)
Trailers (Due to age, may no longer be available) Posters (Due to age, may no longer be available) Poster Rating: D; C- Review: Nothing spectacular. It’s just another placeholder that just happens to use a thematically appropriate font. The poster is a bit deceptive. It uses the type of pose that was typical of Jimi…
