Mansfield Park
TIMES FILM CRITICThursday November 18, 1999 With its self-effacing heroine and deeply moral concerns, "Mansfield Park" is Jane Austen's unlikeliest candidate for screen success, but that hasn't stopped writer-director Patricia Rozema from trying. She's turned what...Tags: Frances O'Connor, PG-13 Rated Movies, New York, Miramax Films, BBC

Scream 3

-
Princess Mononoke
TIMES FILM CRITICFriday October 29, 1999 Animated it definitely is, but "Princess Mononoke" is no Disney movie, not even close. A $150-million-grossing phenomenon in its native Japan, the most popular home-grown film in that country's history, it marries a...Tags: Miramax Films, Gillian Anderson, Gaming, Movies, Shintoism

Love's Labour's Lost

Solid Cast Drives the Action in 'Rangers'

Holy Smoke
TIMES STAFF WRITERFriday December 3, 1999 "Holy Smoke," a high-risk, darkly comic triumph, is the most unabashedly outrageous movie Jane Campion has made since her debut, "Sweetie," a decade ago. Like that film's heroine "Holy Smoke's" Ruth is at intense odds with...Tags: Miramax Films, Family, Sophie Marceau, Vincent Perez, Marcello Mastroianni

Reindeer Games
TIMES FILM CRITICFriday February 25, 2000 "Reindeer Games" is genre all the way, a standard brand updated with the requisite modern touches.
