The Skeleton Twins *** (2014, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Luke Wilson) – Movie Review
A movie that starts with both its central characters trying to commit suicide isn’t going to be all a bundle of laughs, and nor is this one, but it certainly tries hard to amuse as […]
Cookie’s Fortune *** (1999, Glenn Close, Julianne Moore, Liv Tyler, Chris O’Donnell) – Classic Movie Review 1594
Welcome to Holly Springs, Mississippi… home of murder, mayhem and catfish enchiladas. Director Robert Altman is in surprisingly blunt, indulgent and benign mood produces a slack, hollow-centred 1999 comedy thriller film that’s fairly amusing, enjoyable […]
Brute Force **** (1947, Burt Lancaster, Hume Cronyn, Charles Bickford, Ann Blyth, Ella Raines, Yvonne De Carlo) – Classic Movie Review 1580

Loser *** (2000, Jason Biggs, Mena Suvari, Greg Kinnear) – Classic Movie Review 1500
Jason Biggs and Mena Suvari reunite in 2000 after American Pie (1999) for a softer option. Co-producer/writer/director Amy Heckerling’s movie is a mild, bitter-sweet teen romantic comedy. Biggs plays a hard-working, rural upstate hick-from-the-sticks, who comes […]
Harold and Maude ***** (1971, Bud Cort, Ruth Gordon, Vivian Pickles) – Classic Movie Review 1077
Director Hal Ashby’s 1971 adorable oddball black comedy has deservedly proved an enduring favourite. Bud Cort stars as Harold, a rich and appealing but self-destructive and needy young weirdo who is obsessed with death. Strange […]
Totally F***ed Up **** (1993, James Duval) – Classic Movie Review 1039
Gregg Araki’s 1993 movie Totally F***ed Up focuses on a gang of half a dozen gay and lesbian teenagers living in Los Angeles who are totally fed up and f***ed up outcasts. Writer-cinematographer-editor-producer-director Gregg Araki’s […]
