- DirectorLasse HallströmStarsJuliette BinocheJohnny DeppJudi DenchA French woman and her young daughter open up a chocolate shop in a small remote village that shakes up the rigid morality of the community.This is not "Like Water for Chocolate."

- DirectorTim RobbinsStarsHank AzariaRubén BladesJoan CusackA true story of politics and art in the 1930s U.S., focusing on a leftist musical drama and attempts to stop its production.Better than rated, but should have cut the ending.
DATE: 2008-02-11 - DirectorSarah WattStarsMary KostakidisJustine ClarkeDaniela FarinacciDuring one unusually hot and tragic weekend, four people struggle after hearing some life-changing news. This, in turn, brings them together.Doesn't do meaning of life as well as Shakespeare' "signifying nothing" does, but is interesting, and upbeat. I wonder what death caused Sarah Watt to write and draw this movie.
DATE: 2008-03-24 - DirectorDouglas McGrathStarsToby JonesDaniel CraigSandra BullockWhile researching his novel "In Cold Blood", Truman Capote develops a close relationship with convicted murderers Dick Hickock and Perry Smith.Powerful character study about Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood." Sandra Bullock as author Harper Lee (To Kill a Mocking Bird) gives an Oscar deserving performance. Toby as Capote is also first rate. Gwyneth Paltro has a great singing voice (opening nightclub scene)
DATE: 2008-03-31 - DirectorMarc ForsterStarsWill FerrellEmma ThompsonDustin HoffmanI.R.S. auditor Harold Crick suddenly finds his mundane Chicago life to be the subject of narration only he can hear: narration that begins to affect his entire existence, from his work to his love life to his death.Most original script/plot, made me think of "Being John Malkovich." But in this one there is a point in the film where it departs from its initial premise that everything he is doing is what the author writes he is doing. She does not write, for example, that her character comes to see his "author." Although Will Farrell is the lead, it is anything but broad comedy/farce. Also stars Emma Thompson as the author, Dustin Hoffman as the literature professor who serves as Will's analyst, Maggie Gyllenhaal, with Linda Hunt cameo.
- DirectorKevin SpaceyStarsKevin SpaceyKate BosworthJohn GoodmanA swooning study of "Mack the Knife" singer Bobby Darin and specifically his relationship with wife Sandra Dee.Kevin Spacey's tribute to Bobby Darren. I knew Spacey was a great actor, but who knew he could sing and dance? He could have been a major singing star if he had wanted.
DATE: 2008-06-20 - DirectorWoody AllenStarsMia FarrowWilliam HurtJoe MantegnaA spoiled Manhattan housewife re-evaluates her life after visiting a Chinatown healer.Woody Allen wrote and directed Mia Farell in this tangled love affairs film with fantasy herb doctor.
DATE: 2008-07-22 - DirectorAlfonso ArauStarsMarco LeonardiLumi CavazosRegina TornéWhen tradition prevents her from marrying the man she loves, a young woman discovers she has a unique talent for cooking.Like Water for Chocolate
- DirectorR. KellyJim SwaffieldStarsR. KellyCat WilsonRolando BoyceThe first twelve chapters of R. Kelly's rap opera in which a one-night stand triggers a series of revelations about the sexual deceits of its characters.
- DirectorR. KellyVictor MignattiJim SwaffieldStarsR. KellyEric LaneLeShay N. TomlinsonThe second ten chapters of R. Kelly's rap opera in which a one-night stand triggers a series of revelations about the sexual deceits of its characters.Fascinating, novel production about a form of black "gangsta" life. Vignettes that all tie together in unexpected ways. Besides the zero degrees of separation, the other common thread is someone hiding in a closet. I had no idea R. Kelley was anything but a hip hop or something music person.
- DirectorMike NicholsStarsTom HanksJulia RobertsPhilip Seymour HoffmanA drama based on a Texas congressman Charlie Wilson's covert dealings in Afghanistan, where his efforts to assist rebels in their war with the Soviets have some unforeseen and long-reaching effects.Terrific film about covert war against USSR in Afghanistan. Mike Nichols, Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts
DATE: 2008-12-05 - DirectorMartin McDonaghStarsColin FarrellBrendan GleesonCiarán HindsAfter a job gone wrong, hitman Ray and his partner await orders from their ruthless boss in Bruges, Belgium, the last place in the world Ray wants to be.We visited Bruge once. Its memorable spiral staircase bell tower is featured in this film noir comic tragedy. There is even a glimpse of the rope that substitutes for a banister. Some of the action also takes place on its canals.
The film's story about Irish hit men (Brendan Gleeson and Colin Farrel) brought to mind Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) in "Pulp Fiction." But Bruge is a darker movie.
DATE: 2008-12-14 - DirectorChris WeitzStarsNicole KidmanDaniel CraigDakota Blue RichardsIn a parallel universe, young Lyra Belacqua journeys to the far North to save her best friend and other kidnapped children from terrible experiments by a mysterious organization.Fantasy with a little science fiction about a parallel universe where humans have daemons in the forms of animals. Good story really well done.
DATE: 2009-01-09 - DirectorShari Springer BermanRobert PulciniStarsPaul GiamattiShari Springer BermanHarvey PekarAn original mix of fiction and reality illuminates the life of comic book hero everyman Harvey Pekar.Intelligent but depressed guy with mundane clerical job and lousy life in general begins an underground comic strip about his life and the people in it, including his best wife, Joyce. Independent documentary film makers Robert Pulcini and Shari Springer Berman won awards for their novel script which included actors portraying the characters (Paul Giamatti plays Pekar) as well as some of the actual people.
