[movie review]      The House Next Door       4/6      Fados (2009)      "Carlos Saura’s documentary on the Portuguese musical tradition of fado is an inviting and immersive experience, the third piece of a song-and-dance triptych that also includes Flamenco (1995) and Tango (1998)." [movie review]      Time Out New York            Faithless (2001)      "This could be a regretful remembrance of things past on the part of "Bergman" or it could be a pure fiction torn from the ether." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Fall (2008)      "Each and every of Tarsem's visuals scratch onerously at the mind, heart, and cornea." [movie review]      UGO       3/5      Fame (2009)      "There are enough hoary soap-operatic plottings for a thousand Gossip Girls (emotionally distant parents, almost-rapes, suicide attempts), yet Tancharoen individualizes each crisis so that no one character comes off as a mock-universal surrogate." [movie review]      Time Out New York       2/4      Family Nest (1979)      "The characters morph into unconvincing mouthpieces for a highly unsubtle political critique." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Family Nest (1979)      "You'll want to fly out of this Nest, pronto." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3/5      Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)      "At last, Anderson has made a film that is nothing but a succession of autumn-gold shoebox dioramas." [movie review]      Time Out New York       4/4      Father and Son (2004)      "Sokurov firmly establishes his film as a spiritual parable; the characters’ every glance and touch seems a cosmic gesture..." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Fear(s) of the Dark (2008)      "Casts a decidedly uneven spell." [movie review]      UGO            Filth and Wisdom (2008)      "Leave it to the Material Girl to confound all knife-sharpened expectations, even in mediocrity." [movie review]      UGO            First Blood (1982)      "The entryway to the disturbed psychological headspace of a single man, one bent evermore on survival, instinct trumping all." [movie review]      UGO            The First Films of Samuel Fuller (1949)      "Tempting as it is to describe Samuel Fuller as the cinema's brute poet, the three films included on "The First Films of Samuel Fuller" encourage a more multifaceted reading." [movie review]      The House Next Door       4/4      Floating Clouds (1955)      "A colleague astutely described Floating Clouds's ever-deepening sense of detachment as a precursor to Fassbinder." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       4/4      Flowing (1956)      "The examination of behavior via cinema might be posited as the primary thematic obsession of Naruse's filmography." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       3.5/4      Flunky, Work Hard! (1931)      "Flunky, Work Hard! is a film at a crossroads, its most resonant image that of a fly trapped under a dripping faucet and flailing around the waterlogged sink." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Forty Shades of Blue (2005)      "Get it [Forty Shades of Blue] while you can." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       4/4      Forty Shades of Blue (2005)      "There hasn't been a [Sundance] Grand Jury Prize winner this terrific since Tom Noonan's What Happened Was…" [movie review]      Slant Magazine       3/6      Frontier of Dawn (2009)      "Garrel père reunites with Garrel fils for this frequently tedious rumination on rabid passion that still manages to linger in the mind." [movie review]      Time Out New York
