Posted: Marjane Satrapi adapts her graphic novel about growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution and the Iran-Iraq war. |
Posted: PARK CITY -- Ageless rock bands and musicians play a teasing game of nostalgia with concert audiences, performing their golden oldies while slipping in new songs and trying to recast themselves for younger listeners. |
Posted: PARK CITY -- Another quirky movie out of Sundance, "Choke" relies on an appreciation for characters who have no foundation in the real world. |
Posted: PARK CITY -- A comedy in name only. Even in a year when many of the films in Sundance's prestigious Premieres section were sub-par, this one seemed particularly lame. |
Posted: MARRAKECH, Morocco -- Director Nabil Ayouch gives audiences what they may want -- a heady mix of Western and Oriental in this liberal dose of feet-tapping music and Egyptian belly dancing. But beyond the lavishly mounted dance floors, "Whatever Lola Wants" fails to engage. |
Funuke Show Some Love, You Losers! (Funuke Domo, Kanashimi No Ai Wo Misero) Posted: MARRAKECH, Morocco -- This black comedy about dysfunctional families based on a novel by Yukiko Motoya, has a talented cast yet looks like a television soap. The movie has a good boxoffice potential, though it appears out of place in a festival competition. |
Posted: PARK CITY -- When a film opens with the title, "Based on a true story," one wonders if the filmmakers are trying to bolster a flimsy premise with claims of authenticity. |
