Rummaging through the Old Maids (12/19/08)
Posted by: Matt Gamble in Features, Previews, Site Announcement, TrailersFinally an easy week of recommendations. Ignore Big Willie or Jim Carrey, heck ignore Doubt and its prodigious scenery chewing by everyone involved (Pssst … word is in the final tumultuous conclusion that Philip Seymour Hoffman literally starts gnawing on his desk in frustrated disbelief at what has occurred). You don’t need a feel good movie, or a comedy or blatant Oscar bait this holiday season. Instead, try something different. Like an Independent Spanish time travel film. You know, like Timecrimes.
And what could be a better gift this Christmas then the gift of Burn After Reading? You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll discover just which of your relatives is part of a League of Morons. And isn’t that what the holidays are for?
As always trailer are after the break!

My wife and I saw Burn After Reading in the cinema a month or so ago. We loved it. J.K. Simmons just steals the entire movie in the 5 minutes of screen time he has. And it’s great to see the Coen brothers unwind with this kind of movie after No Country For Old Men. Great stuff.

I think you got it wrong on the scenery chewer in DOUBT, Matt. Meryl Streep is the chewer.

Hah. I wouldn’t doubt it Robert, but all I have to go on is the trailer.

I must agree with you that “Burn After Reading” is an instant classic. I’m still laughing from that one.
