Monday, September 3rd, 2007

“Ratatouille” (G, 110). Not merely funny, smart, beautiful to look and surprisingly moving, but with one of the most lovable heroes in a long time—Remy, a rat with a culinary genius.

THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES BY THE COWARD Mastidon, from Venice!!!

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I have also seen this film with an incredibly long title, but my opinion differs a bit from Mastidon’s, although I completely see where he’s coming from and readily admit that he has some valid points. The film is long and slow, but I was never bored. The acting was so good throughout that I never got tired of the flick. But I’ll have a full review in time. Here’s Mastidon who not only assassinates the film, he has proof that he shot both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie!

Director James Mangold talks 3:10 TO YUMA, westerns and remakes with Quint!!!

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with my longish interview with director James Mangold about his new flick 3:10 TO YUMA. I was pretty happy with it as you can see from my review.

Our conversation covers a lot of ground, from the concept of remakes, to the early days of the project when Tom Cruise and Eric Bana were rumored to be playing the leads to the fight to get a western made in today’s studio system. I even bring up WALK HARD, a spoof of biopic films that leans heavily on Mangold’s own WALK THE LINE.
