[movie review]      Slant Magazine            3:10 to Yuma (1957)      "It's nice to have Delmer Daves's solid western on DVD, even this special edition is just a throwaway portion of its remake's promotional machine." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)      "Simultaneously subversive and reactionary" [movie review]      CinePassion            49 Up (2006)      "Essential viewing" [movie review]      CinePassion            9 Songs (2005)      "It has the rough, penciled-in feel of a sketch, flurries of palpable physicality left along the path of a dissolving relationship" [movie review]      CinePassion            A Scanner Darkly (2006)      "Ponders the inherent doom of Slacker transgressors" [movie review]      CinePassion            Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)      "Well-constructed and satisfyingly low" [movie review]      CinePassion            Ace in the Hole (1951)      "A prophetic scald" [movie review]      CinePassion            Achilles and the Tortoise (2008)      "Takeshi Kitano in a contemplative, pretty-but-is-it-art mood." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Act of Violence (1948)      "Fred Zinnemann's best movie" [movie review]      CinePassion            An Actor's Revenge (1963)      "There's a visual slash every minute" [movie review]      CinePassion            Adoration (2009)      "Moody, gliding filmmaking and ripples of quizzical humor save it from being a lugubrious game of therapeutic musical chairs." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Adventureland (2009)      "Observant, soulful, often achingly attuned to clashing emotions" [movie review]      CinePassion            An Affair to Remember (1957)      "An Affair to Remember and a movie to treasure." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3.5/4      An Affair to Remember (1957)      "Often regarded (or dreaded) as the ultimate chick flick, due in no small amount to its fetish-object role in Sleepless in Seattle, An Affair to Remember deserves better than to be the receptor of Meg Ryan's crocodile tears." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Alexandra (2008)      "Eccentric and tender, it is a picture out for grace rather than polemics, and it finds enough to make one see emotional intimacy anew" [movie review]      CinePassion            Alexandria... Why? (1978)      "Chahine's Alexandria is as fervidly distinctive as Fellini's Rome" [movie review]      CinePassion            Alice, Sweet Alice (1977)      "Every composition is more ornate than at first expected" [movie review]      CinePassion            Allegro Non Troppo (1979)      "Bozzetto's satire serves both Darwin and Genesis." [movie review]      CinePassion            The American Soldier (1970)      "The phantoms of Old Germany are everywhere" [movie review]      CinePassion            And Then There Were None (1945)      "A tightly self-winding contraption" [movie review]      CinePassion            Android (1982)      "Erudite, low-tech sci-fi" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Andromeda Strain (1971)      "Disquieting" [movie review]      CinePassion            Angel-A (2007)      "A better grubby guy/hot chick fable than Knocked Up, certainly much more honest about its male-fantasy status" [movie review]      CinePassion            Annie Oakley (1935)      "George Stevens amply appreciates the showbiz synergy of performers and audiences in the carnival arena" [movie review]      CinePassion            Antichrist (2009)      "A hoot" [movie review]      CinePassion       3/4      Antonio Gaudi (1984)      "Had Lewis Carroll switched from jotting down his visions to carving them in stone, his works might have looked a lot like Antonio Gaudí's." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Antonio Gaudi (1984)      "Teshigahara lets Gaudí's works speak for themselves, and what strange music they make." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            Apocalypto (2006)      "Nothing if not visceral" [movie review]      CinePassion       2.5/4      Aquarium (2008)      "In The Aquarium, a fishbowl carved out of desert rock gives Yousry Nasrallah's film its title as well as its presiding image of urban malaise." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Art School Confidential (2006)      "Messy, squalidly funny" [movie review]      CinePassion            Arthur and the Invisibles (2007)      "A candy-colored fusion of Dahl, Dr. Seuss and the director's own mischeviousness" [movie review]      CinePassion            Artists and Models (1955)      "Nothing beats Jerry's face on TV, simultaneously the poster boy for pop culture and a warning sign of its fallout" [movie review]      CinePassion            As Tears Go By (1988)      "The pinwheeling, phosphorescent spirit is undiluted Wong Kar-wai" [movie review]      CinePassion       3.5/4      Ashes of Time Redux (1994)      "Wong heightens action tropes the way Sergio Leone found arias in western showdowns, though in his version of the Hong Kong martial-arts netherworld the mandatory melees play second fiddle to the characters' melancholic languor." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul (1963)      "The birth of Brazilian horror as a direct act of blasphemy" [movie review]      CinePassion            At the Circus (1939)      "Beguiling" [movie review]      CinePassion            Atom Age Vampire (1960)      "Wretched dubbing and chainsaw edits can't dim Anton Giulio Majano's assorted cinematic aperçus" [movie review]      CinePassion            Autumn Leaves (1956)      "Irresistible and perverse" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Avenging Conscience (1914)      "One of Griffith's most experimental films" [movie review]      CinePassion            Awakening of the Beast (1969)      "An Artaudian cyclone, replete with genius" [movie review]      CinePassion            Away From Her (2007)      "Too content with its own "maturity" and "restraint," yet it invaluably offers Christie for audiences in delicate contemplation, and chaste consummation" [movie review]      CinePassion            Bad Day at Black Rock (1954)      "Millard Kaufman's dialogue at times sticks to the roof of the mouth, but Sturges' visual construction is minute" [movie review]      CinePassion       3/4      Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009)      "It may not have the wounding thrust of Ferrara's, but it shares with that film a bottomless compassion for its crazies, to say nothing of the exhilaration of seeing a fearless director and a fearless actor pushing each other beyond extremes." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       3/4      Ball of Fire (1941)      "After the rush of His Girl Friday, Ball of Fire is a more sedate ride, full of such marvelous passages as the conga line Stanwyck's delectable Sugarpuss teaches the professors." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Bananas (1971)      "A study of the Cuban Revolution by way of Freedonia" [movie review]      CinePassion
