Quills
TIMES FILM CRITICWednesday November 22, 2000 Not content to simply explore the life and philosophy of the celebrated Marquis de Sade, "Quills" soon becomes a sadistic experience in its own right. Experiencing this pretentious wallow--overwritten, under-thought and...Tags: Peter Weiss, Politics, Advice Columns and Columnists, Cinema Industry, Entertainment

'Capturing the Friedmans'
!["This is private," David Friedman says, unequivocal and visibly upset, glaring at the camera in a page from his video diary. "If you're not me, then you really shouldn't be watching this because this is supposed to be a private situation between me and me. So turn it off, don't watch this, this is private."](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2003-06/8174867.jpg ""This is private,\" David Friedman says, unequivocal and visibly upset, glaring at the camera in a page from his video diary. \"If you're not me, then you really shouldn't be watching this because this is supposed to be a private situation between me and me.

The art of interrogation
![We've all seen it in the movies: the tough-guy private eye stubbing out a Camel filter on a suspect's neck and barking, "We can do this the easy way or the <I>hard way</I>." Or, at the other end of the B-movie moral spectrum, the sneering Gestapo captain, brandishing a hypodermic needle and chortling (with back-lot Bavarian inflection), "Vee haf vays to make you talk!"](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2003-03/6999057.jpg "We've all seen it in the movies: the tough-guy private eye stubbing out a Camel filter on a suspect's neck and barking, "We can do this the easy way or the <I>hard way</I>.\" Or, at the other end of the B-movie moral spectrum, the sneering Gestapo captain, brandishing a hypodermic needle and chortling (with back-lot Bavarian inflection), \"Vee haf vays to make you talk!\"")

'Swimming Upstream'
!["Swimming Upstream" is a welcome throwback to the rich Australian cinema of the late '70s and '80s that was suffused with the sense of an entire people discovering itself on the screen. There was a tremendous freshness, energy and lack of self-consciousness in such films as "Newsfront," "The Winter of Our Dreams" and "High Tide" — to name the first three that come to mind. At the same time, "Swimming Upstream" is a stunning instance of a work in which it is easy to perceive the universal in the particular.](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2005-02/16139451.jpg ""Swimming Upstream\" is a welcome throwback to the rich Australian cinema of the late '70s and '80s that was suffused with the sense of an entire people discovering itself on the screen.

Stunning 'Quills' funny, fast, horrific
Tribune Film CriticRight from its opening sequence, director Philip Kaufman's startling "Quills" gives us an anatomy of fear, images both silken swift and molten hot, scenes that disrupt and inflame the imagination.

'Twisted'
![In the junky woman-in-peril thriller "Twisted," Ashley Judd enters laughing, but not for long. Butched-out with cropped hair, leather jacket and a bloodstream gurgling with booze, Judd's Jessica Shepard has just been bumped from beat cop to homicide detective when the story opens. The tough-talking, rough-loving rookie inspector takes to her new gig with bravura, only to quaver when she discovers that her first homicide case involves a recent sexual conquest. When a second fling ends up filling up a chalk outline, the inspector knows she has a problem and, needless to say, she isn't the only one.](http://www.calendarlive.com/media/thumbnails/story/2004-02/11581330.jpg "In the junky woman-in-peril thriller "Twisted,\" Ashley Judd enters laughing, but not for long.
