    "Miracle at St. Anna (2008) IMDB Oh man, how I wanted to like Miracle at St. Anna.  So, so badly.  But I just couldn't.  Most of the time I was left scratching my head, going "What? WTF!?"  Yeah, its kind of like that.  For lots of different reasons. First, the plot.  We are witness to one Hector Negron (Laz Alonso), in 1980's New York City, as he pulls a gun on and kills an unassuming man as he walks up to Hector's Post Office window.  When the police investigate, along with the help of a bumbling cub reporter, they discover a marble statue head, which turns out to be a priceless relic from a bridge the Nazi's destroyed in WWII Italy.  Presumably " [More]

    "It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Barry Jenkins’ film Medicine for Melancholy, and we’re lucky enough to have Barry be big fans of Spout as well.

    "With the first weekend of the 2008 Toronto International Fim Festival now in the dustbin of history, here are a few notes from the ground: Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler premiered here last night, fresh off its Golden Bear win in Venice, and nary a negative word has so far been heard.

A film at the polar opposite end of the buzz spectrum is Spike Lee’s The Miracle at St. Anna, which even admirers of Spike’s provacations are calling a waste of time. Our own Kevin Kelly was at the film’s junket, which he says devolved into “The Elect Barack Obama Show” when neither journalists nor the filmmaker could keep the conversation focused on the movie. Kevin will have a repo ... " [More]
