Suspended Animation

2007-11-25 17:10:00 by Paul Matwychuk in The Moviegoer
...delicately crooks her fingers the way a cartoon princess does Nothing else in Enchanted is anywhere near Adams level. Timothy Spalls subplot as Narissas bumbling henchman devotes too much time to him wearing wacky disguises and not enough to his pathetic desire to win the queens affections. A scene where Giselle is shown reading a book about...

Drunks: 'Days of Wine and Roses'

2007-09-25 18:25:44 by Kim Morgan in Sunset Gun
...delicately down the concoction with an almost vampiric joy, as if knowing another potential boozer is a sixth sense. It's a sad moment watching poor Remick throw that drink back, her innocent enjoyment and eventual giddiness made all the more tragic by how unaware she is. In the midst of an almost predatory drinker and harboring the right...

DVD Review Of Landscape In The Mist

2007-10-11 14:36:00 by cosmoetica in Unspoken Cinema
 
...delicately tender. Just look at the scene where Alexandre, once found by Voula and Orestes, after working at the café to eat, hands his sister a sandwich, or the scene where Orestes says goodbye to them. Any Hollywood film would have had Orestes give up his dream of the Army and care for the children. But, in this world- the realistic one...

BLACK EMANUELLE'S BOX: VELLUTO NERO

2007-11-03 13:51:00 by Robert Monell in I'M IN A JESS FRANCO STATE OF MIND
...delicately lit by Gastone Di Giovanni. The strength of VELLUTO NERO is that is how effortlessly it seems to maintain its heavily stylized look while rapidly moving along (the efficient editing was by future Eurosleaze director Bruno Mattei I must admit a fetish for Susan Scott ( rn Nieves Navarro), whose gaze can melt down the strongest of...

Broken Flowers

2005-12-04 01:12:00 by Your Guide to the Undead in The Film Journal Blog
 
...delicately performed The remainder of the film descends into pointless melancholy, and Jarmusch relies far too heavily on a type that Bill Murray has now overplayed Jarmusch is unquestionably an American original. He's certainly allowed a minor misstep like Broken Flowers

Across the Universe

2007-10-10 18:20:00 by Danielle Ni Dhighe in Scan and Pan
 
...delicately treading a fine line between realism and artifice. Elliot Goldenthal ( Titus , Frida ) contributes some original music and is also one of the people responsible for the song arrangements. You've never heard the Beatles quite like this There are thirty-four Beatles songs used in the film, mostly compositions of John Lennon and Paul...

...delicately soft poetical substance. It combines an intense and colorful handling of images with a beautiful voice-off narrative, making the spectator walk along the intimate emotions and thoughts of John Smith & Pocahontas ( Colin Farrell & Q'Orianka Kilcher ) as if in a loud lecture. As if through the words, we were picturing in our minds...

Centennial Tributes: Ethel Merman

2008-01-16 08:30:00 by Josh R in Edward Copeland on Film
...delicately, attractive in the conventional sense or particularly photogenic. The camera doesnt lie, and what works on a stage doesnt necessarily translate onto the screen film is fundamentally an actors medium, not an entertainers. In close-up, it was apparent how limited Mermans dramatic skills were, and the extent to which she was dependant...

Making The Cut

2008-01-26 12:18:00 by John in Confessions of a Film Critic
...delicately choreographed scenes, some of which work wonderfully and some of which simply dont. At times the staging feels enclosed, introducing an unnecessary air of stage-bound claustrophobia despite Burtons compelling staging and coherent vision. He is at his best when he sates his appetite for the macabre, indeed the film is far more...
