CHRONICLE OF A SUMMER - Blu-ray review
Rouch and Morin provided a degree of access to “real” people that had rarely, if ever, been associated with a trip to the theater before.

THE IMPOSTER – DVD review
"The Imposter" is a thoroughly engaging look into one of the biggest cons ever pulled. Just when you think the story will get too incredulous, there are revelations that ground the account in plausibility.

THE INSIDER - Blu-ray review
Finally released on Blu-ray, “The Insider” earned seven well-deserved Oscar nominations back in 1999, including best picture, actor, director and screenplay.

LAY THE FAVORITE - Blu-ray review
"Lay the Favorite" had the opportunity to be an enthralling exposé of the gambling world. Think "Moneyball" in Sin City. Instead, the movie puts it all on the line until the dice finally come up snake eyes.

THE INTOUCHABLES - Blu-ray review
Without getting into spoilers, can I just say how refreshing it was to watch a film about a physically challenged person that didn’t end on a total downer?
