Serenity (2005)
Serenity....science fiction at it's best
Wow...I wish I had found this gem of a show when it was on the air and could have supported it..if this series doesn't come back it's a crime, because 99% or the alternative crap that the networks will churn out will have less than 1/10th of the heart and humor and fabulous writing that this movie and supporting series had. From the music to the humor to the synergy of these characters I enjoyed this movie from beginning to end. I so enjoyed the characters that I am disappointed I Can't find out more of them. This needs a sequel. The studios need to have more writers direct, the dialogue was so snappy and quick and smart that t almost rolled up and over the edge, but just backed off when I thought I was laughing just a bit too much. This sort of quality writing is not often found in scripts and jumps out at you in stark comparison to the dry and formula writing we have become used to.
Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)
It's about courage, integrity and standing up for what is right
I thought this was an excellently crafted film. The Black and white setting helped recapture the feel of the era. I thought the writing was crisp. The segues with the jazz was very nice, the interview with Liberace classic, the Kent cigarette commercial wonderfully placed. Overall if David Straithan (not sure on the spelling) should definitely receive a nomination for his portrayal of Edward R Murrow, if that wasn't an academy award winning performance then I have no idea what one is. i can't believe the trash talking gong on and labeling of this film. It was about the importance of our rights, the Constitution and the importance of standing up for what is right and our rights regardless of what the cost is. I thought it was a portrayal of courage and integrity. How this turns into anything about liberal and conservative is beyond me, Go see it, it's a film that makes you really think about the direction our media is taking, it makes you feel good about our country and the proud of those who risked all to uphold our constitution and the rights of our citizens.
The Wonderful Ice Cream Suit (1998)
Ray Bradbury shows his genius
In a time when Hollywood can't seem to come up with anything, but rehashes trash that was trash before it was rehashed. Along comes a short story and some creative direction. If it had a bigger budget I think it could have hit 11 or 12. We had to track this one down and buy it, one of the rare gems...just open your mind to the unorthodox and enjoy Of course if you don't like ti your probably a republican. You can tell the difference between a novel adapted from a short story and one that has been created in committee in some room where people have degrees in accounting and couldn't be creative unless they're preparing something for the IRS. Edward James Olmos steals the show with an outstanding performance, I never saw him coming, the ending is so un-Hollywood as is the pace and creative direction this very low budget film went.
just kidding....kinda
