  1. Film review: Quentin Tarantino ropes himself a Western with 'Django Unchained'

    As diverse as Quentin Tarantino's first films (“Reservoir Dogs,” “Pulp Fiction,” “Jackie Brown”) were in tone (tragic, comic and romantic, respectively), they all took place within roughly the same world and the same genre — urban crime. The iconic status that accrued to him in that genre could easily have hardened into a straitjacket. In addition, his dialogue is so relentlessly contemporary that he seemed about as well suited for a 19th century period piece as Ang Lee was for a CGI superhero project like “Hulk.”

  3. The Postman

    TIMES FILM CRITIC
    Wednesday December 24, 1997      The year is 2013. America's consumer society lies in ruins, a hodgepodge of faded Coppertone billboards and tilted Union 76 globes. Heartless bandit hordes rape and pillage at will. Who dares stand in their way? Can...

  4. 'Never Met Picasso'

    Times Staff Writer
    Margot Kidder is back, looking far too young and beautiful to be the mother of a 30-year-old son, and giving a beguiling performance as an easygoing parent in Stephen Kijak's skittish "Never Met Picasso." It's a wry comedy, decidedly on the callow side,...

  5. 'Open Range'

    Say what you like, think what you will, scoff if you have to (and you will definitely have to), but in the final analysis Kevin Knows Westerns.
    Times Staff Writer
    Say what you like, think what you will, scoff if you have to (and you will definitely have to), but in the final analysis Kevin Knows Westerns. Returning to the genre that won him Academy Awards for best director and best picture with 1990's "Dances With...

  6. Movie review: 'Open Range'

    Chicago Tribune Movie Critic
    2 1/2 stars (out of 4) Kevin Costner's "Open Range" tries to open up the Old West once more as prime movie territory. This portrayal of an 1882 Montana range war is an epic film with big stars and spacious landscapes, and since I love Westerns and...

  7. Donnie Brasco

    TIMES FILM CRITIC
    Friday February 28, 1997      How much Mafia can you take? Are you entranced by the Talmudic distinctions between a wise guy, a made guy and a connected guy? Do you relish hearing cold-eyed thugs mumbling, "I don't mean no disrespect"? "Donnie Brasco" is...
