    "In addition to winning Best Picture (and seven other awards) at the Oscars last week, Slumdog Millionaire passed a major box office benchmark. It has now grossed more than $100 million in the U.S., which is pretty astonishing for a film with one-third of its dialogue in a foreign language. But is Slumdog’s popularity a one-shot in terms of its audience’s interest in India, or are moviegoers actually now more curious about the nation and its own films? Some websites are simplifying the question of whether or not Slumdog will be a gateway film with polls asking if American moviegoers will now “go Bollywood” (40% of Cinematical readers flat out answered, “no.”), which is rather silly since Danny Boyle’s movie bears no resemblance to the majority of Bollywood pictures. In fact, Americans have in the past received far " [More]

    "Yes, it’s that “most wonderful time of the year” again. And unless the scent of pine turns you on or you’ve got a fetish for glittery objects (like the crazy queen who must have designed this year’s Macy’s window display after watching A Beautiful Mind on acid – there’s even a borderline creepy ode to the “diva Tinsel” stenciled on the glass. Check it out if you’re in NYC, it’s a must!), you’re probably feeling about as sexy as eggnog right now. But don’t despair. If Macy’s can turn a stalwart tradition into an LSD trip I can find the perversion in The Sound of Music. So without further adieu, here are some sexy, family-friendly suggestions for gathering around the DVD player with the clan. Heavenly Creatures Dashing Cary Grant stars in Henry Koster’s 1947 The Bishop’s Wife, about an angel sent down to earth to help a holy man (played by the delightful David Niven) build a church – and recover his shaken faith in the process.

    "Is romance dead? David Carr seems to think so, at least in American cinema (both Hollywood and “Indiewood,” as he inclusively clarifies). While celebrating the subway station meet-cute from the beginning of Milk, a scene he claims to be of an increasingly rare sort, Carr states that American filmmakers “can do romantic pathology and entropy, but the kind of love for the ages, a big-movie kind of love? Not so much.” If you agree with him, blame the back-to-back Best Picture winners Titanic and Shakespeare in Love for feeding us the kind of romance that’s so cheesy it clogs our arteries and gives us a coronary. Left with a burst heart and a lack of quality Nora Ephron movies, most of us have been cynics when it comes to love stories these past ten years. Yet cynics can still be swept off their feet, and American filmmakers h " [More]

    "Opening today, Soul Men features the final performance from Bernie Mac, who died unexpectedly on August 9. The movie also includes a cameo from Isaac Hayes, who died one day later. Both men join a long list of people whose last films were released after their deaths, a list that includes Brad Renfro, whose final performance, in The Informers, can be seen in theaters come next May. Unlike some names on that list, Bernie Mac, whose voice can also be heard in the new animated sequel Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, isn’t likely to receive a posthumous Oscar nomination as a tribute to his final work. But as one of the most underrated comic actors of the past few years, Mac likely gives a great performance as soul singer “Floyd Henderson,” enough to fall in with the crop of posthumously released roles we’ve showcased below: [More]

    "The name says it all. What more can one write about this masterpiece expect praise it on all counts. The greatest casting, Best of acting, Brilliant adaptation of the novel, great scripting, wonderful photography, marvellous color for the period, legendary musical score and great direction. No movie has all these qualities combined. You have to search unsuccessfully for any flaw in this great movie. Need one have to say anything about Gables Rhett, Viviens Scarlett or Leslies Ashley and not to forget Olivia or Hattie McDaniel all of whom bring Margaret Mitchells characters to life. MAx Steiners score has set the trend for similar music for decades after GWTW. Keep watching this movie every time you feel that you have forgotten it as it grows on you.

    "One of the many fads for cinephilic YouTubers, perhaps next in popularity after mashups and sweded remakes, is the condensed movie. Actually, thanks to a recent Empire contest, the art of sweding and the art of fitting features into a 60-second time frame is now also a mashed-up fad (though I guess sweding has always involved shortened versions). But while in this day and age any fanboy can do a shortened remake of his or her favorite movie or an abridged recut that breaks a film down to its bare essentials (i.e. its use of the f-word), condensing a film is not necessarily a low art. Just look at the 76-minute video Academy by R. Luke DuBois, a conceptual artist who works with both audio and visual mediums. A couple of years ago, using a time-lapse process, DuBois crafted this compilation of sped-up versions of Best Picture Oscar winners, which he says “allows us to explore the temporal, " [More]

    "Vivien Leigh: Scarlett & Beyond This is supposed to be a retrospective on the life of Vivien Leigh, but at times it felt more like Jessica Lange's audition tape. Her role as the host has her fawning over Vivien with over written dialogue that's also over acted while putting herself into strange tableaus. Anyways, I'm sure it would be a good documentary for anyone interested in Vivien Leigh. I'm really not. Her acting often bugs the hell out of me. But again I had to watch this because it was on the Gone with the Wind special features. There are three discs in that set. Sheesh! Rating: 6/10 " [More]

    "Gable: The King Remembered This seems to be made by the same team that put together James Dean Remembered. Again this documentary feels very dated. Very 70's. People have this creepy causal yet too hip and high minded kind of feel. It's so hard to describe. I guess the only exception would be Andy Devine. Again, it's probably interested if you are a huge Gable fan, but I'm usually not terribly interested in the lives of these absolute mega-stars. I just watched it because it was on the special features for Gone with the Wind and I'm anal about watching all of them when I rent a movie. Rating: 4/10 " [More]

    "The Making of a Legend: Gone with the WindI suppose since Gone with the Wind is such a long movie they figured the "making of" documentary should be longer than normal as well.If you love Gone with the Wind but don't already know all about the story behind the making of the movie, then you'd probably find this pretty enjoyable.I find the film to be rather humorless epic melodrama. Although done well, not my favorite kind of faire. So I enjoyed this documentary from a film history aspect, but there were a few times when it felt a bit tedious just like the movie it's about.Rating: 7/10 " [More]
