A pushcart war erupts in a Paraguyan marketplace after Victor, a 17-year-old delivery boy played by young Baba Booey lookalike Celso Franco, unwittingly agrees to transport a passel of crates containing the remains of a disassembled kidnap victim. What starts with a pulse-pounding foot-chase soon gives way to a stock …
Jason Schwartzman (The Overnight) slacks hard in this tiny film from Bob Bymington (Somebody Up There Likes Me).
What separates this account of the counter-terrorist hostage-rescue mission that ended on July 4, 1976 from the two made-for-TV versions that came out within a year of the hijacking is elementary. If the focus is on the all-star cast of passengers, it’s a disaster picture. If the story is told …

Fellini's ever intriguing interweave of fantasy and reality, having to do with the drains on a fictional movie director's creativity. Parasites, vampires, angels, ghosts, and grotesques drift weightlessly through the hero's real and imaginary life, moving as if on floats or on turntables -- this remarkable new groove for Fellini …
A Peter Greenaway erudition display, or in other words a film to bang your head against. Arch, artificial (and harshly recorded) talk of sex, death, money, religion, Fellini (hence the title), Mondrian, Austen, Hardy, etc., in flat, rigid, squared-up compositions, sometimes containing antiseptic nudes.

A dramatization of the twenty-year correspondence between New York litterata Helene Hanff and a London book dealer she never met. This basic material, with its excessive necessity for voice-over recitations, will hardly commend itself beforehand as very intrinsically cinematic; and the deep-rooted reverence for books at the core of it …
feature-length film of Braydon Bringhurst’s attempt to summit "The Whole Enchilada," one of mountain biking’s most epic trails. The locale attracts expert-level riders from around the globe to Moab, Utah, to challenge its 8600-foot descent over raw terrain of rugged rock drops and boulder fields.

How …
