Travelling with Art
Imagine traveling the world, staying someplace entirely new every few weeks. Or you could actually do it. Glenn the Bad Dahli Lama does that. Most people I meet really aren’t comfortable with the idea of traveling. There’s so many … Continue reading
A Side of Love
This is so un-chronological. First we watched Waitress (made in 2007), which had Andy Griffith. Andy was also in Play the Game (2009). Marla Sokoloff was in that as well. Because of that movie, we watched Love on the Side … Continue reading
Southbounders without Conflict
Nobody knows how to pronounce Appalachian Trail, but that doesn’t stop them from making movies about it. The Appalachian Trail, as we’re told in the opening narration, is some 2168 miles long, stretching from Maine to Georgia, going through 14 … Continue reading
Prelude to a Movie About a Kiss
Metaphors are like smiles… or is that similes? So I’m watching Prelude to a Kiss. And it’s an OK love story. A little quirky. I like that. Once upon a time, Alec Baldwin was quite the leading man. Back then … Continue reading
Froggy Met a Princess
Somewhere around 2004 Disney shut down their animation studio and disbanded it. The future was computer animation, not hand-drawn stuff. Their competitors found themselves awash with well-trained talent. In 2009, Disney released a new hand-drawn cartoon, The Princess and the … Continue reading

Lars Never Promised You a Rose Garden
Mental illness in movies is usually just a metaphor. In the movies, people tend to recover. It’s uplifting. Lars and the Real Girl is about this troubled guy who introduces a blow-up doll as his girlfriend. But it’s not what … Continue reading
Playin’ the Game
I love being manipulated by movies. Especially when I don’t see it coming, or when it’s done some way that I’m not used to. We decided to watch Play the Game because Andy Griffith is in it. What could be … Continue reading

Cookie’s Fortunate
It’s got a dumb name, if you ask me, but nevertheless you’ve got to see Cookie’s Fortune. It’s a film from 1999 starring Liv Tyler, Glenn Close, Julianne Moore, Charles S. Dutton, Lyle Lovett, and a whole bunch of other … Continue reading
Hey Ain’t From Another Planet, He’s My Brother
John Sayles is a script doctor. So is Carrie Fisher. I’m guessing they bring her in to work on snappy dialog and clear characterization, while he’s more for plot and motivation. But I don’t really know. When he’s not working … Continue reading
Anita and Me and Her
Usually I don’t think of English movies as being “foreign films”. I’m familiar with their language and culture and history, to a point. I listen to their music. Not so keen on their food. Enjoy that King Arthur stuff, Sherlock … Continue reading
