HE IS A GOLDEN GOD



NEW IN THEATRES...

* Hesher, Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as the title character. Hit an open chord, take off your shirt, and be a teenage dirtbag, baby.

Playing Portland at Cinema 21 starting this weekend.

* True Legend, a disappointing new action flick from the awesome martial arts choreographer Yuen Woo-Ping. Lame story, too much CGI.

UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...



* The Great Dictator, Charles Chaplin's daring comedy parody of Adolph Hitler still packs a punch today.

THIS WEEK IN DVD/BD REVIEWS...

* The Misfits, John Huston directs Clark Gable and Marilyn Monroe in their final screen roles. Also stars Eli Wallach and Montgomery Clift, in a script by Arthur Miller.

* The Unloved, Samantha Morton's softly rendered, heartfelt directorial debut.




Current Soundtrack: Adam Wade, "Gloria's Theme;" The Indelicates, David Koresh Superstar [album available for download, name your own price]
