    "This is the first in what will be a series of posts examining the artistic life cycles of Oscar winners who failed to find continued mainstream success after taking home the statuette. If you have suggestions for stars or filmmakers that you’d like to see profiled, let us know in the comments. Roberto Benigni swang from general obscurity in the United States to media darling following his Academy Award for Life Is Beautiful. But what’s happened to him since? He was only the second filmmaker since Sir Laurence Olivier to direct himself in an Oscar-winning performance. That’s a long way to go for someone who had only been seen here in Blake Edwards’ terrible Son of the Pink Panther and as a sex-obsessed cabbie in Jim Jarmusch’s Night on Earth.

I suppose, on the one hand, it was that, but on the other hand, it was really an uneven collage of vignettes that left me just a bit sleepy. Coffee and Cigarettes are the ties that bind several vignettes featuring random famous people talking, smoking, and sipping coffee - unless the people are British, and then they prefer tea. Or, unless they're the Wu-Tang Clan, and then they prefer herbal refreshments of all kinds. Some of the vignettes work: I think my favorites were Cate Bl ... " [More]

    "This movie is worth seeing just for the scene where Iggy Pop and Tom Waits sit down in a little bar to drink coffee and talk about how they've quit smoking. Absolutely hysterical. I love these guys. Did anyone else see where Iggy Pop went stage-diving for his 60th birthday. A rockstar to make Mick Jagger jealous!! " [More]
