Definitely not the movie you want to watch with mother, this true tale of sexual perversity, jealousy and madness among the decadent set is engrossing enough as a case study, but likely to leave you feeling a bit queasy before, during and after. Julianne Moore plays Barbara Daly, a former actress who married above her station. Brooks Baekeland (Stephen Dillane) is an upper-class Brit who never tires of bemoaning the fortune his inherited from his grandfather, who invented Bakelite plastic.... Read more
Lawrence (a bearded and tweedy Dennis Quaid) is a professor of literature and a pompous ass. Maybe the death of his wife made him that way - maybe he always had it in him, but he's organized his life in such a way that no one else gets much of a look in. Not his pissed off teenage son, James (Ashton Holmes); not his colleagues on the faculty; certainly not his poor students; and least of all his own ne'er do well brother Chuck (Thomas Haden Church). The only one who genuinely likes Lawrence is Read more
Back in 1997, George Clooney was still a TV heartthrob first, a movie star second. He had just made a $100 million blockbuster - Batman & Robin - but he knew it sucked. He headlined a couple of competent A-list pictures, One Fine Day and The Peacemaker, but neither of them was better than average. 'I was being held to a higher yardstick, and I realised I better hold myself to a higher standard,' he said, looking back. ound this time, the director Steven Soderbergh was in a deep funk.

Speaking at the ceremony, Quaid quipped: "I remember when this town was a beanfield. I've been here 125 years. I started with Charlie Chaplin." Quaid, who used... Read more
Bob Dylan casts an elusive shadow. This year we've seen Hayden Christensen playing Not Bob (at the insistence of Mr Dylan's lawyers) in Factory Girl. Adam Sandler looking awfully like him in Reign On Me. And we've heard the real McCoy growl out a new blues on the soundtrack for Lucky You. Now we get no less than six Bobs (though none goes by that name) in Todd Haynes' bio-mash-up, I'm Not There. The title comes from one of the more obscure Basement Tapes recordings, and you can see why it... Read more
