Jimmy P. (Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian) (2013 Cannes review)

<i>Jimmy P. (Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian)</i> (2013 Cannes review)

Easier to respect than embrace, Jimmy P. (Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian) tells its true-life story with understatement and features sturdy performances from Benicio del Toro and Mathieu Amalric. But this somewhat clinical look at the unlikely therapy sessions that took place between a French anthropologist and a traumatized Native American war veteran in 1947 feels hemmed in by its approach. You sense that French filmmaker Arnaud Desplechin wants to avoid the feel-good clichés associated with such a movie, but his alternative is tasteful but also a little too muted....  read more

Savages

The Wolfman Review

<em>The Wolfman</em> Review

Director: Joe Johnston Writers: Andrew Kevin Walker, David Self Starring: Benicio Del Toro, Emily Blunt, Anthony Hopkins Studio/Run Time: Universal Pictures, 103 min. Change is good, but not this time Twice, The Wolfman could have turned out to be something more than just an exercise in Victorian mood punctuated by scenes of dismemberment. Early in the film, the dour and eccentric Sir John Talbot (Anthony Hopkins) offers up a morsel of advice to his recently arrived “prodigal son” Lawrence (Benicio Del Toro), which might have set the theme for the rest of the film: “The past is a wilderness...  read more

Paul Giamatti in for Three Stooges Movie, Jim Carrey Out

Admittedly, we've already allotted a good bit of digital ink to a film that remains stunted in the pre-production stage (10 years and counting?), but it's not just The Three Stooges we're talking about here. It is the Farrelly Brothers' Three Stooges, and their casting process looks as chaotic as, well, a true Stooges film should be. ...  read more
