  9. 'Beyond the Hills' tells a different kind of exorcism tale

    In 2005, Romania's equivalent of the sensational O.J. Simpson trial rocked Eastern Europe when a priest and four nuns from a convent in the country's remote Moldavia region went to prison for accidentally killing a young woman during an exorcism. The case captivated the public, attracted interest from filmmaker Roman Polanski and ultimately inspired writer-director Cristian Mungiu to make "Beyond the Hills."

  11. Deborah Landis, ever the advocate for costume designers

    Designing costumes so ingrained in popular culture that they still inspire Halloween disguises 30 years after they were created &mdash; Michael Jackson's "Thriller" jacket, Indiana Jones' signature outback slouch look and the unforgettable "College" sweatshirt from "Animal House" among them &mdash; would be enough of a career accomplishment for most people.

  17. Did 'We Have a Pope' foretell Pope Benedict's resignation?

    As topics for fact-based movies go, you&rsquo;d be hard-pressed to find one as tricky as the papal selection. The process is cloaked in secrecy, for starters, and it&rsquo;s not like it happens much more than once a decade.

  21. Golden Globes 2013: Michael Haneke on his parody Twitter account

    In what has been one of the strange joys of this awards season, a parody Twitter account attributed to Austrian filmmaker Michael Haneke has become a treasure trove of comedy gold with its digs at Terrence Malick, pictures of cats and general sense of levity that is at odds with the super-serious nature of the filmmaker's work. That Haneke's "Amour" has been winning prize after prize, including the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and five Oscar nominations, plus a Golden Globe on Sunday night, has made it seem even better.
