Review of I'm Not There
It's All ThereIn this deep and provacative documentary on the life of Bob Dylan, we are invited to share in many aspects of the life of the man and artist.

The Golden Compass was an adequate movie - by regular movie standards. I wasn't cheering for the heroes as much, as I was, in say, The ... read morePosted on 12/08/2007 by dougiejr3 Angelika Houston vs Angelika DallasI am kind of upset that all of the stars that the Angelika Dallas has been able to showcase - including stars from "The Kite Runner", and "Romance and Cigarettes" not to mention several others, and all Angelika Houston has been able to persuade is Keir Dullea (of 2001: A ... read morePosted on 12/06/2007 by dougiejr3
