It’s a good thing I have an unexpected day off on Friday, because a deluge will start in earnest on the 10th (at least, for me). In the meantime, still a fair amount to see:Okay, explain to me why Chronicle – a movie designed to look like low-resolution video – is playing at the proudly [...]
Weak attempt at a theme post, seeing as these two movies really have very little to do with each other than both being in Spanish. I did see them on consecutive nights, though, so that’s kind of a theme. But, as far as Latin American countries go, the current situations in Nostalgia’s Chile and Miss [...]
Last year, I don’t think I heard much (if anything) about My Idiot Brother before catching it at Sundance USA, and it wound up being a fairly pleasant surprise. I may have oversold it a little, but it was a legitimately charming comedy with a nice cast that should have made a little more noise [...]
I swear, tickets at the Coolidge keep getting bigger. I think they know about this blog and are jockeying for real estate on the screen.OK, that’s because I pre-ordered a ticket for Celeste and Jesse Forever and thus printed it out at home. Meanwhile, I half-suspect that the Brattle just gives out ticket stubs because [...]

A few other things that received nominations show up in town for [...]

This was going to be paired with something else: At first, Red Tails for both having predominately-black casts or A Dangerous Method, which I saw on the same night. But I really said all I had for them in the TWIT entry(*). Then I figured a "first love" pairing with Young Goethe in Love, but [...]
Hey, it’s been a while since we’ve seen China Lion open a film in Boston – Love in Space and My Kingdom back in September. Nobody manned up to get 3D Sex & Zen Extreme Ecstacy, and Magic to Win only played a few cities (5 screens instead of the usual 20-ish). It looks like [...]
