MEN WITH HATS



NEW IN THEATRES...

* The Adjustment Bureau, in which Matt Damon and Emily Blunt get entangled in a mind-warped romance. My original headline was "Like The Notebook for boys...or maybe Inception for girls?" but, you know, girls like Inception. (Also in the print edition of The Portland Mercury.)

UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...

* Yi Yi, Taiwanese writer/director Edward Yang's epic-length examination of a family in flux. New on Blu-Ray. (Also at DVD Talk.)

THIS WEEK IN DVD/BD REVIEWS...

* Bambi: Diamond Edition, a fantastic release of one of Disney's most impressive movies, bringing this animated classic into the technology of the 21st century brilliantly.

* Jackass 3: Unrated, this time, the winner takes all the smuggled plums.

* Mesrine: Killer Instinct, the first part of last year's great French gangster epic.



Current Soundtrack: Love's Alchemy, "I Never Said Forever/Ophelia" (download); the Beatles, Abbey Road
