The Urge To Be Cool Begins To Undermine Its Very Self In Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’

March 15, 2014 by Tom von Logue Newth

It seems to be of little concern to Jim Jarmusch, the common journalistic shorthand that labels him as some “high priest of hip.” He seems actively to be courting the title in fact, with Only Lovers Left Alive, the most languorously cool movie of his career (amidst stiff competition).

AFI FEST 2013 Movie Review: Greatness Amongst Carnage In ‘Lone Survivor’

November 12, 2013 by Kathryn Schroeder

The sound of bones crunching against a tree, as a man’s body tumbles down an unforgiving hill; not once, but twice.

Film Rant: Dario Argento’s ‘Dracula 3D’

October 12, 2013 by Tom von Logue Newth

As the years go by it seems ever more likely that Dario Argento will never rescale the inspired heights of his ’70s output, the hysterical horror and steely set-pieces that more than make up for wooden acting, distracting dubbing, and leaden exposition. Mother of Tears had its moments and gave one cautious hope in 2007; […]

LAFF Film Review: ‘Fruitvale Station’ (Dir. Ryan Coogler 2012 USA)

June 22, 2013 by Kathryn Schroeder

Reconstructing the last day in a man’s life was the difficult task put to director Ryan Coogler with Fruitvale Station.  The events leading up to Oscar Grant’s untimely death on New Year’s Day 2009 is the basis for the story, the sensationalized media frenzy that came afterwards is left out of Fruitvale Station, giving the […]
