  2. Movie Review: 'Snow Flower and the Secret Fan'

    In trying to give a modern twist to "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan's" bestselling story of women and friendship in 19th century China, director Wayne Wang has been tripped up by his chick-lit tendencies. He should have trusted that author Lisa See's moving portrait of two girls bound by fate, custom and circumstance (as tightly and at times as painfully as the cloth that wraps and warps their feet) would be enough. Instead, he's weighted down the big-screen version with a couple of 21st century Sex in Shanghai-styled BFFs who've had a nasty falling-out.

  3. Reel China: Will it play in Peoria and Shanghai?

    Moviegoers in China enthusiastically see American films, yet the reverse is almost never true. But you'd think if there would be someone who might bridge the divide — someone whose personal background, connections and professional expertise could help bring Chinese films more into the U.S. mainstream — that person might look much like Wendi Murdoch.

  5. Film Reviews: 'Captain America,' 'Snow Flower and the Secret Fan,' 'Beats, Rhymes and Life.'

    “What makes you so special?” sneers the archvillain, a noseless Nazi. “Nothing,” replies Steve Rogers, aka Captain America. “I'm just a kid from Brooklyn.” It's classic Marvel, the “relatable” superhero: you too can whip the Axis, skinny kid; all you need is a German refugee doctor played by Stanley Tucci who asks, “So, you vant to go ovahseez, kill some Nazis?” When he zaps you with Stark Industries' Vita-Ray Hitler's not going to kick sand in your face anymore. And yet when the machine opens and Chris Evans, all 6-feet, 200-pounds of him steps out, there's a certain absence of golly-gee-willikers. The last origins movie before next summer's Avengers, Captain America: The First Avenger is far more watchable than Thor but it also feels perfunctory, offering little more than ersatz '40s atmosphere, the usual slumming thespians, a rousing USO number written by Alan Menken and David Zippel and the eerie CG that has wasted Evans' face to that of a 98-pound weakling.
