‘Country Strong’ Trailer
Posted on Tuesday, September 28, 2010 at 12:26 am by Danny King in the Videos categoryI missed the boat on this a couple of months ago, but seeing as how I just reviewed Shana Feste’s The Greatest, I thought it would be appropriate to share the trailer for Country Strong, her next feature which will … Continue reading

Posted on Monday, September 27, 2010 at 7:10 pm by Danny King in the Videos categoryApple has posted the first official trailer for Joel and Ethan Coen’s True Grit. Along with The Fighter, True Grit is a major Oscar contender that has been kept in the shadows for quite some time. Jeff Bridges is the … Continue reading
Movie Review: ‘The Greatest’ (2010)
Posted on Sunday, September 26, 2010 at 11:12 pm by Danny King in the Reviews categoryIn an odd way, Shana Feste’s The Greatest works in a lot of the same ways as Atom Egoyan’s Chloe. Needless to say, the two films offer very different plots, but both of their subject matters should be familiar to … Continue reading
‘The King’s Speech’ Trailer
Posted on Friday, September 24, 2010 at 3:27 pm by Danny King in the Videos categoryYahoo has posted the trailer for Tom Hooper’s festival favorite The King’s Speech.

Trailer for Ron Howard’s ‘The Dilemma’
Posted on Saturday, September 18, 2010 at 7:30 pm by Danny King in the Videos categoryApple has debuted the trailer for The Dilemma, the next film from Ron Howard. Outside of the great TV series “Arrested Development,” Howard’s experience in comedy has been very limited. The Dilemma‘s trailer doesn’t have any sort of wow factor, … Continue reading
Movie Review: ‘The Town’ (2010)
Posted on Thursday, September 16, 2010 at 9:06 pm by Danny King in the Reviews categoryThe sense of place in Ben Affleck’s The Town is outstanding. The film introduces Charlestown, MA – a square mile town that averages almost a single bank robbery every day – as a source of evil. The inhabitants are products … Continue reading
Trailer for ‘The Fighter’
Posted on Thursday, September 16, 2010 at 12:49 am by Danny King in the Videos categoryDavid O. Russell’s The Fighter is one of the few main awards contenders remaining that hasn’t been seen by a large audience. For me, this adds a certain intrigue to the project. The Apple trailer is impressive, though it is … Continue reading
Depp and Jolie in ‘Tourist’ Trailer
Posted on Wednesday, September 15, 2010 at 11:37 pm by Danny King in the Videos categoryBased on the Yahoo trailer, it’s likely that The Tourist will have a much more breezy feel to it than writer-director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck’s powerful 2006 drama The Lives of Others. Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie appear to be … Continue reading
