LINCOLN'S STINKIN' THINKIN'


"There's a competition in me..."

NEW IN THEATRES...

* A Liar's Autobiography: The Untrue Story of Monty Python's Graham Chapman sounded like a good idea. In 3D, animated, built with audio recordings by the late comedian. Too bad it sucks.

* Lincoln. Day-Lewis. Spielberg. 'nuff said.

UPDATED TO CRITERION CONFESSIONS...

* The Private Life of Henry VIII, Charles Laughton's star turn as the corpulent king, in a bawdy historical picture from Alexander Korda.

* Weekend, the end of cinema as envisioned by Jean-Luc Godard.

THE WEEK IN BD/DVD REVIEWS...

* Film Noir Collection, Volume One: Olive Films bundles together four of its noir and not-so-noir titles for a pretty solid collection of 1950s B-movies.

* John Cage: Journeys in Sound, an informative documentary about the avant-garde composer.


Current Soundtrack: People are listening to the Beatles somewhere over there...
