VIOLET STARS HAPPY HUNTING!!!



If you've got movies you've been waiting to go out and see, you might want to do that this weekend, because I have three reviews in the pipeline for absolute must-see movies that open next Friday, and I still haven't even seen everything that is coming. It's one of the most packed release calendars of the year. Consider yourselves...warned!

IN THEATRES...

* Bright Star, Jane Campion's portrait of the romance between John Keats (Ben Whishaw) and Fanny Brawne (Abbie Cornish).

UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...

* The White Sheik, Fellini's first solo film feels like more of a warm-up for the next big race.

THIS WEEK IN DVD REVIEWS...

* Castle: The Complete First Season, the fun cop drama with Nathan Fillion as a mystery writer shadowing a real-life police detective, played with moxie by Stana Katic.

* Observe and Report, Jody Hill's divisive dark comedy. It made me laugh.



Current Soundtrack: The Daily Show, 9/23/09 episode; Paul Heaton, "Mitch (Virgin Radio Session)"
