"All the President's Men I have seen this one a couple times now, and it's one of my favorites. One of the best movies about good journalism (there are a lot of good ones about bad journalism too) and one of my favorite movies based on a true story. And the acting and dialogue are all so very realistic that you almost really believe that if you would have been able to experience the actual events it couldn't be much more thrilling. I'm not blogging about this movie right now just to go along with the recent presidential hype of yesterday's inauguration of Barack Obama. I actually saw this one a couple months ago when my girlfriend rented it on Netflix, and it's just next on my list of movies to mention. But it's easy to imagine that must worse things went on behind the Bush administration than what happened here with Nixon. And lets just hope that Obama's presentation of being and open and honest administration is for real. After watching All the President's Men, it's hard to ... "

"Oliver Stone has long been synonymous with political passion projects, but his latest film, W., may be his most ambitious effort yet, if only because of how quickly the thing came together and got made. Now the serio-comic biopic about our sitting president is about to hit theaters, less than ten months after anyone had heard of its inception, and it’s getting a number of favorable reviews, will possibly rule the box office this weekend, and could even garner an Oscar nomination for Josh Brolin, who portrays the man with the titular initial, George W. Bush. But not all political passion projects are quite as successful as W. is expected to be. Some such films have been banned, while some have simply failed to acquire an audience on more democratic grounds, whether in terms of box office, critical or awards recognition. Yet regardless of the reception of a political passion project, either at the time of release (or intended release) or decades later, it may be regarded as an achiev ... "

"The Democratic National Convention is over, and all the ecstatic party members have left Denver to go back to their zombie-esque lives (Bob Hope said it, not me). But after four days of celebrating what it means to be a Democrat, some may not wish to settle down and calmly wait out the next two months until Obama’s (possible) win, let alone the next five months waiting for the candidate to (possibly) be sworn in as President, participating in the normal non-specifically-Democratic, non-self-congratulatory activities that most of us are content with. So, one thing excited Democrats can do is watch movies that will continue to inspire and encourage their beliefs and politics. As Karina already wrote, The American President is one movie that just barely may allow Obama fans to relive his DNC speech. Also, beginning yesterday, the Oscar-nominated documentary No End in Sight will be available in full

Sydney Pollack, RIP

"Nothing like a tragic loss in the film world to remind me how broad the art of film can be and how many worthy films are out there that I have yet to view. Earlier this year, when reviewing the Oscar nominees for Best Picture, I singled out Sydney Pollack's performance in 'Michael Clayton' as being particularly good. In the later part of his career - the part most familar to myself as a relative youngster - Pollack was best known as a producer and actor. While I knew of him as a director, it turns out I have been ridiculously neglectful of the man's filmography. Of course, most people have seen 'Tootsie,' the 1982 comedy that starred a cross-dressing Dustin Hoffman. But other than this blockbuster, the only Pollack-directred film I've actually seen is 'The Firm' (not a bad film, if I may say). But Pollack, we should not forget, was an Oscar-winner. He directed 'Out of Africa,' starring Meryl Streep and Robert Redford, two of the cinema's most likable performers. And though Redford ... "

"The Parallex View captures the feeling of distrust and paranoia (or is it paranoid if they really are out to get you) in the government and in corporations that pervaded the country in the early 70s. (see All the President's Men (1976) ) The movie is very dark. Maybe it was too dark for its time, because it was passed over when it first came out, but has gained a justly deserved cult following since then "

"Early in the film All the President's Men, Editor of the Washington Post Harry M. Rosenfield (Jack Warden) tells reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein (Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman) that "Charles Colson, special counsel to the president, has a cartoon on his wall. The caption reads 'When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow.'" This could just as easily apply to the film; All the President's Men grabs viewers with its first shot -- an extreme close up of a typewriter banging out the date -- and, without the use of the gratuitous histrionics of most thrillers, doesn't let let them go until its close.All the President's Men tells the story of Woodward and Bernstein, the reporters who broke the Watergate scandal and followed the story all the way through. The two fought to get the scoop, fought to tell the story, fought to find the truth, and then fought to get it published. (There was a lot of fighting, as you can tell.) The film is based on the boo ... "
