Side by Side
In Side by Side, Christopher Kenneally takes on the ever-contentious topic of 35mm film versus digital video by exploring the development of each and comparing them, as the title says, side by side. The movie opens with an air of mourning for the death of film, and continues on to examine everything from when Arriflex stopped investing in film technology to when the first RED camera was released, and beyond. But perhaps most interestingly, Side by Side examines this subject from the standpoint of film-making careers and how they have been affected—explaining how positions as diverse as editor, cinematographer, film... read more

Found in: Movies, ReviewsThe 30 Best Fight Scenes in Movie History
I haven’t been in a fight since 10th grade (unless you count an attempted mugging in Kenya where I fended off some unarmed teenagers with a bag of water bottles), and I’d very much like to keep that streak alive. But at the heart of every good story is a struggle, and some times that struggle gets physical. We devoted a whole issue to exploring violence in the arts last year with philosophical nuance, but this list just celebrates a good fight. Sometimes it’s good vs. evil, sometimes it’s more complicated. We celebrate the underdog, the outnumbered and outsized finding... read more

Here, we've listed 10 of the worst examples of famous actors doing infamously bad accents:... read more

If you've been poking around lately on those music blogs they have on the interwebs, chances are you've heard a thing or two about the new ANTI- signing, Dead Man's Bones, which also happens to be the band of Half Nelson/The Notebook/bunch of other stuff movie star, Ryan Gosling. Now, the music of Dead Man's Bones doesn't move me in any particular way, good or bad; it's just kind of there. "Gothic folk," as they say, complete with a kinda-creepy children's choir. However, it does actually sound like music that would be released on ANTI-. Which is to... read more
