“Four Letter Words” is a little different, though. It’s aimed at those who have already been through the first few years of undergraduate study. It’s about that awkward homecoming we’ve all had, either around the holidays or in early June, after everyone’s come home from their respective schools. Some people stay exactly the way they were that last day of senior high, while others appear to have morphed into completely different people.

Grovers Corners New Hampshire is a town that never existed. The question is, was it a real representation, or does it even matter? The life as lived may have little resonance with people now as the pace of the actions of the townspeople is so much slower than contemporary society. Maybe, it seems more real than our lives today because of it.

A Farewell to Arms could be a metaphor for its times. A story of World War I, the hero Lieutenant Frederic Henry, has to come to terms with the war he blithely entered. The country whose armed forces he is part of, Italy, was also blithe about going to war. Both pay for it in different ways.

This one’s tough even by Godard’s standards. He’s never been Hawks, but 1967’s La Chinoise makes Breathless look like Casablanca. Godard even pulls a neat trick; while satirizing the radicalism of the characters contained herein, he manages to enter the ranks of the “filmic radicals” by forsaking conventional narrative structure in favor of fragmented dialogues.

“A. (Anonymous)” is a relatively short mockumentary that tells the story of a group of people with social dysfunctions I didn’t even know existed. The founder of the group, for example, describes himself as formerly OCDWOTP — an obsessive-compulsive disorder wearer of tight pants. You better believe this odd compulsion leaves him with some “partial numbness.”

The thing I really liked about Charade is how the film is a little of everything: thriller, mystery, romance, comedy. Grant and Hepburn are strangely composed considering that the threat of murder is all around them. They find time for comedy, romance, and dinner on a riverboat. The least you can do is find time for Charade.

Filmed shortly after the nightmare that occurred at Columbine High School, Duck! was the first (and by far the worst) movie that presumed to make sense of the tragedy. If you enjoyed Michael Moore’s Bowling for Columbine you might as well force yourself to sit through this piece of tripe in order to get a different take on the subject. Where one film exploits both victims and survivors, the other attempts to poke fun at the media responsible for exploiting both victims and survivors. A rather clever idea to satirize something that is so blatantly unfunny; unfortunately, it was an idea that landed in the incapable hands of William Hellfire (Derwin) and Joey Smack (Derick).

Capturing the power of love is surely one of film’s most simple and yet most difficult callings. Even after years of attempts, many romances fall short of reaching any real truth and instead aren’t much more than a cinematic pillow for tired minds. Roberto Benigni’s The Tiger and The Snow strives to be more. The [...]
