The story as told is just too depressing, too empty and, most of all, too dead and gone.

It wasn't meant to copy either film preceding it. It's not a great feat of creativity, but at least it represented some actual work by the people making the movie.

This unusual coming-of-age comedy boasts excellent character development and involving performances. It's a promising feature movie debut for filmmaker Kate Melville.

Director Steven Soderbergh's dramedy features great performances by Michael Douglas and Matt Damon in the story of entertainer Liberace and his longtime lover.

Soderbergh is clearly captivated, as are we all, by the rot underlying the glitz, but even with Douglas' nuanced performance, the film simplifies too many things.

Movie, movie on the wall, who's the lamest of them all? In 'Snow White and the Huntsman' that distinction is pretty much up for grabs.

Whether the biopic Behind the Candelabra ends up being a swan song for director Steven Soderbergh or merely the last entry in one phase of a long career, it's an impressive work.

Damsels in Distress |

Although the themes of clueless rich kids acting boorishly are very much the same as in Stillman's biggest hits, 'Metropolitan' and 'Barcelona,' the light and breezy "Damsels" more than stands on its own as an Austen-tatious delight.
