  1. 'Brighton Rock' is old-school with fresh charm

    Graham Greene created a chilling portrait of a young gangster Pinkie Brown in his novel, “Brighton Rock.” He also co wrote the landmark 1947 noir British film that starred a young Richard Attenborough as the calculating and sadistic Brown....

  2. Film review: It's no crime to love Scott Thomas

    She may not get as much kudos as Meryl Streep, but Kristin Scott Thomas is one of the most riveting actresses working today and, being bilingual, she seamlessly moves between prime English- and French-speaking roles.

  3. It's brother vs. brother in 'Warrior'

    A film centering on the world of the raw and brutal form of competitive fighting known as mixed martial arts would hardly make this reviewer rush to the cinema. But director Gavin O’Connor’s new film, “Warrior,” much like last year’s Oscar contender, “The Fighter,” goes beyond the ring to deliver a solid dramatic punch with its story of two estranged brothers competing in the same tournament.

  5. 'Dolphin Tale' a swimming success

    When a film says “inspired by a true story” what you usually can expect is a diluted Hollywood version of a true story, and there is plenty of manipulated fiction in the new family film “Dolphin Tale.” But guess what? It doesn’t matter. The central crux of the story and the film’s marine mammal star, an adorable dolphin named Winter, are all real enough and are guaranteed to tug at the heart strings.

  6. Manland: IKEA's Mancave Section

    Make no mistake women love shopping, but their men, not so much.
    KIAH

  7. A close-up look at haute cuisine

    Food has become a spectator sport these days. Television has given us a smorgasbord of shows, from “Top Chefs” to “MasterChefs.” For those who like their food with a spicy side of loud and aggressive, the new documentary, “El Bulli: Cooking in Progress,” will be as about as exciting as watching water simmer. But for those truly interested in the art of cooking without the histrionics, this is a fascinating fly-on-the-wall experience of what was one of the world’s greatest restaurants.

  8. Lots to like about French film

    It’s Paris in the 1960s. Jean-Louis (Fabrice Luchini) lives a pleasant, placid life working for the brokerage firm his father founded, married to a pretty and prim wife, Suzanne (Sandrine Kiberlain), and living in a comfortable apartment, the same one he has lived in since he was a child. It seems his biggest bother is getting the housekeeper to serve his eggs at just the right soft boil. He’s barely aware of the women who use the stairs behind his back entrance to get to their cramped apartments on the sixth floor.

  10. Promised 'Oranges and Sunshine'

    When British social worker Margaret Humphreys (played by Emily Watson) informs a woman working in a pub that the daughter she gave up for adoption as an unwed mother in the 1950s was later sent to a children's home in Australia, she is stunned: “They told me that she had been adopted by a good family. What was she doing in a children's home on the other side of the world?”

  11. About something, or much ado about nothing?

    Anyone who struggled through Shakespeare in high school might find some glee in picturing the Bard as a rude, uneducated, drunken lout who never actually penned his literary masterpieces. Well, that’s according to one theory put forth by the new film, “Anonymous,” and it’s supported by an avid group of so called “Anti-Stratfordians” who over the years have included Mark Twain, Orson Welles, Sigmund Freud and British actor Sir Derek Jacobi (who performs a damning prologue to the film).

  12. A film as warm and fuzzy as Elmo

    I must admit I never paid much attention to Elmo, the red furry “Sesame Street” character. I preferred my muppets more feral, and with attitude, like Animal, Cookie Monster or Oscar the Grouch. They always seemed more interesting than the sweet-voiced and huggable Elmo. But after watching the superb new documentary, “Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey,” I’m a huge fan not only of Elmo, but its gentle genius creator Kevin Clash.
