Tales from the Script

Hollywood Reporter
03/12/10 Good "...an enjoyable if not particularly enlightening ride... To convey the lesson here (while paraphrasing Dante), don't give up all hope, you who dare to enter."
2.

Phyllis and Harold

Hollywood Reporter
02/18/10 Weak "This so-so doc about yet another dysfunctional middle-class New York Jewish family disintegrating in a recent bygone era is definitely best suited to home viewing."
3.

Red Riding Trilogy

Hollywood Reporter
02/05/10 Good "...while strong in performances and atmosphere, is a daunting tangle of characters, time periods, crimes and cover-ups that is more 'who's where' than whodunit."
4.

Looking for Palladin

Hollywood Reporter
11/09/09 Moderate "The unsubtle approach to a lead character -- a crude, motor-mouth Hollywood talent agent -- sinks this otherwise often watchable comedic drama."
5.

Tickling Leo

Hollywood Reporter
09/03/09 Good "...should satisfy serious older filmgoers, even if it suffers from wobbly storytelling.... director Jeremy Davidson still shines with this modest production."
6.

Fifty Dead Men Walking

Hollywood Reporter
08/18/09 Outstanding "Docu-like film based on exploits of an actual Belfast hood turned informer against IRA terrorists is an explosive cinematic experience."
7.

Grace

Hollywood Reporter
08/14/09 Poor "...whimpers a bit like 'Rosemary's Baby' and gurgles occasionally like 'The Exorcist,' but the video look and bare-bones craftsmanship all scream B movie."
8.

Mein Führer

Hollywood Reporter
08/14/09 Very Good "Hitler as film comedy is rare indeed... Filmmaker Dani Levy again shows his flair for comedy, inventiveness and a will to entertain."
9.

Yoo-Hoo, Mrs. Goldberg

Hollywood Reporter
07/16/09 Outstanding "Kempner has done everything right by organizing her bountiful material into a fascinating portrait of a worthy personality and her era..."
10.

Herb & Dorothy

Hollywood Reporter
06/04/09 Excellent "Delightful, involving... about an unlikely couple who became pioneer contemporary art collectors with working-class salaries."
11.

My Life in Ruins

Hollywood Reporter
05/05/09 Moderate "...sometimes as sunny as its locations but as familiar and predictable as a Greek diner."
12.

Serious Moonlight

Hollywood Reporter
05/05/09 Very Good "...a rollicking, nasty ride into the disintegration of a marriage... Meg Ryan is terrific... she makes Louise a ballsy, believable bitch to behold."
13.

The Good Guy

Hollywood Reporter
05/01/09 Very Good "...an impressive debut... sharp, fun and pleasant to behold, and its recreational, apartment and workplace locales are appropriately slick and showy."
14.

The Eclipse

Hollywood Reporter
04/28/09 Very Good "Quinn's performance, dodges cliche. Hinds and Hjejle are outstanding... McPherson has craftily woven themes of grief, love and the possibility of the unknown..."
