Less Than Zero ** (1987, Andrew McCarthy, Jami Gertz, Robert Downey Jr, James Spader) – Classic Movie Review 10,394
Director Marek Kanievska’s 1987 Less than Zero is a very wobbly film version of the Bret Easton Ellis cult novel, which is much changed and a great deal less interesting. Andrew McCarthy stars as Princeton college […]

Sweet Bird of Youth *** (1989, Elizabeth Taylor, Mark Harmon, Rip Torn, Valerie Perrine, Ruta Lee, Kevin Geer) – Classic Movie Review 5237
Director Nicolas Roeg’s interesting 1989 TV movie version of the Tennessee Williams play is reworked by teleplay writer Gavin Lambert, apparently using the playwright’s own revisions, though these are not always an improvement on the […]
Election **** (1999, Matthew Broderick, Reese Witherspoon, Chris Klein) – Classic Movie Review 455
Based on the 1998 novel by Tom Perrotta, co-writer/director Alexander Payne’s 1999 satirical comedy is an incisively funny winner. A metaphor for the state of American politics, Election is a very useful antidote to the late-90s […]
