...Funny Games as well as its recent American remake. (I lobbied for The Seventh Continent , but Beard had dibs on that one himself.) I had only hazy memories of the original, and the American version was not exactly one of my favourite films of 2008. Rewatching the two movies didn't exactly change my opinion, but I did find writing my essay to...

...Funny Face carries the Number 4 on its spine Of the five titles chosen for Paramounts new Centennial Collection line of DVDs, four are Audrey Hepburn vehicles. I suppose this is because these movies continue to sell well on DVD, though Im not banking on Paris When It Sizzles or War and Peace getting this deluxe treatment. As it is, this is...

...Funny Games? I had never seen the 1997 Austrian horror film directed by Michael Haneke, but after hearing he had directed a controversial shot by shot remake for North American audiences, I had to check it out So last week, I watched the film and all I can say was that I was in utter shock that this film was being remade (shot by shot...

In 2008, the re-make, also directed by Haneke, debuts with an all new cast and this time in English. The problem is that it is essentially a...

Then Tim Meadows pops up, and in his always perfect deadpan voice says, Dewey Cox has to think about his whole life before he performs. I was actually surprised when there was no generic dream-blur transition From here, we...
