  11. 'The Emperor's New Clothes'

  21. A Civil Action

    TIMES FILM CRITIC
    Friday December 25, 1998      "A Civil Action" comes close, achingly close, to greatness. Finely cast, classically shot, written and directed with sureness and skill and based on a book compelling enough to stay on bestseller lists for two years, it's...
