  1. Kenneth Turan's picks: 'The Smiling Lieutenant' and 'Roxanne'

    This intriguing double bill with a theme programmers call "Secret Sweeties" is a chance to see 35-millimeter versions of rarely screened films, one old and one new, with the lion's share of the proceeds going to a great cause. That would be UCLA's student...

  7. Wes Anderson wrote 'Moonrise Kingdom' with a little help from friends

  8. Film review: Quentin Tarantino ropes himself a Western with 'Django Unchained'

    As diverse as Quentin Tarantino's first films (“Reservoir Dogs,” “Pulp Fiction,” “Jackie Brown”) were in tone (tragic, comic and romantic, respectively), they all took place within roughly the same world and the same genre — urban crime. The iconic status that accrued to him in that genre could easily have hardened into a straitjacket. In addition, his dialogue is so relentlessly contemporary that he seemed about as well suited for a 19th century period piece as Ang Lee was for a CGI superhero project like “Hulk.”

  9. Tidings of comfort and latkes

    What am I cooking for Christmas dinner? Well a goose, of course, a fine, fat one, cooked in the Barbara Kafka way that involves high heat and an hour of resting in the cooling oven; and my mom's sweet-and-sour red cabbage; and blanched Brussels sprouts finished in hot fat. There will be no foie gras this year for the obvious reason, so there may be another pâté, something absurdly luxurious made from pheasant and juniper berries or some such.

  10. Film review: 'The Lucky One' never gets the fire started

    Hollywood keeps making adaptations of Nicholas Sparks novels, even though they've never really burned up the box office. Maybe “The Lucky One” will be, well, the lucky one, but it's hard to imagine why. Sparks films have become their own subclass within the Romance genre; and this one feels so familiar that, in my mind, its details began to blur with those of its predecessors before the closing credits had finished.

  11. Film Review: 'This Means War' a humorless slog

    There is much humor to be found in the outrageous, even dangerous, lengths a sympathetic character will resort to in the name of obsessive love. And there's plenty on display in the preview teaser for the next “Ice Age” movie as Scrat — the 21st century's Wile E. Coyote – dives to the bottom of the sea in pursuit of his beloved acorn.
