He refers to all the close-ups of the three main characters which say as much as the dialogue, and couldn’t have been seen adequately from theater seats during a live performance. I don’t really ...

    /FilmAuthority Authority: 783
    Wow. After watching  The Carter , the new all-access documentary on  Lil’ Wayne , one might consider recommending it as the best doc about a hip hop icon ever. The problem with this superlative lies in its limitation. Similar to labeling Lil’ Wayne a rapper—even “the best rapper alive” as many ...

    "its like a Greek tragedy, only Im the subject" The moment that sold me on James Tobacks excellent documentary, Tyson , was when the former heavyweight champion of the world was holding back tears, murmuring about when he became a fighter, after trainer Cus DAmato took him under his wing: "He spoke with me every ...

    Seems like today, everyone’s talking about the same few news items. I’d hate to be left out. * Adding to the endless speculation over who will be cast as whom in “Spiderman 4,” Nikki Finke enters the more or less pointless but, I suppose, fun fray by naming Anne Hathaway as having been “approached” ...
