Quintessential American film is 'for the kids'
As the nation unwinds for the Fourth of July, it's a good time to ask: What's the definition of an American movie? Is it a fable of our forefathers like Young Mr. Lincoln? A chronicle of collective heroism like Saving Private Ryan? A song of small-town virtue like It's a Wonderful Life?Fuhgeddaboutit.While hacks and advertisers continue to recycle images of decorated veterans, firehouse Dalmatians and cherubs with sparklers parading down Main Street, an increasingly multicultural and urban [Read more]

The Stoning of Soraya M: A Brave New Film on Women's Rights in Iran
Meanwhile, adding a strong secondary message about the danger of mob rule were the film's male actors. I have to say the part of Hashem, the widower pushed by the movie's villains into serving as the necessary 2nd witness, was portrayed with a slightly clunky performance. Yet, the two lead villains -- the plotting husband Ali (Navid Negahban) and the lawless mullah who assisted him in condemning Soraya (Ali Pourtash) -- delivered first-rate performances. Never have I so thoroughly despised a mov [Read more]

Soul on Ice: Black hockey players
You know what I mean. We all do it. You see someoneon TV or about town and they kinda look like they could be, but you neverreally know. When Vin Diesel appeared in “Saving Private Ryan,” you know you wonderedif he was Black. This was one of those moments, so I kept watching. Every timehe was interviewed, I’d turn my head sideways examining him as if he was somesort of grifter. I said to myself, “that’s a brotha!” The more I saw him, themore convinced I became [Read more]

Have modern visual effects robbed us of reality?
Re: Have modern visual effects robbed us of reality?Posted By MarvMarble 1 June 11, 2009 02:02:56 PMI don't have a problem with it. Although I know what I'm seeing isn't real, I'm usually caught up in the story (if it's good) and it's real enough for me.Besides it's not a new thing. Often in the passed, minatures were used instead of CGI. Sometimes they looked brilliant. Other times you could kind of tell they were models. Did it take us out of the film? Maybe. If so that's not just the province [Read more]

But by will, courage and the providence of God, those who survived the landing changed history, Carter said.When he told his 9-year-old son of what he had learned, his son asked, “Dad, what are we fighting for?”Sometimes adults overlook the answer to that question, Carter said.

We didn’t watch the finals of Britain’s Got Talent.

By the time we remembered, the final was over. So we watched a repeat of Timewatch about D-Day instead.It focused on Omaha Beach, the toughest a [Read more]

Murda, He Wrote: D-Day ceremonies highlight shift in America's image
BAYEAUX, France —What Europe thinks of the U.S. or even if their opinion is relevant is a common topic in the popular media, particularly on cable news. And most of it paints a chilly relationship with Europe, save England.There’s no question America’s reputation has taken a hit during the last decade or so. But Saturday’s commemoration of the Allied invasion of Normandy highlighted an America at the height of its popularity. It also offered further proof that the tides a [Read more]
