Today's podcast reviews "Requiem".  Find out what Sallie and Sharita thought of this film.


Requiem is Directed by Hans-Christian Schmid and is about a young woman (Sandra Huller) who comes to believe that she is possessed and seeks help from friends, family and her parrish priests.  The tale is based on a true story and is set in Germany with German subtitles. 

HOW DO YOU SAY WOF IN GERMAN???
WOF stands for Waste of Film

Sallie Says "Don't see this unless you have insomnia.  It Sucks!"

Sharita Says "z z z z z"

WEEKLY RENTAL RECOMMENDATIONS

This is a horror story about an American family who takes a road trip and finds themselves stranded and confronted with a band of cannibals.  Wes Craven produces this remake of his 1977 classic by the same name.  Directed by Alexandre Aja and starring Kathleen Quinlan.

Sharita Says " It's a cheap thrill.  Check it out if you like gore"

After Hours - This 1985 comedy is Directed by Martin Scorsese and features Griffin Dunne, Roseanna Arquette, Catherine O'Hara and Teri Garr.  Set in New York, this takes place over the course of one evening and is one man's adventure as he tries desperately to get home.

WOF of the WEEK
this stands for Waste of Film

I care about you and I would hate for you to waste your precious time on this film directed by Neil Jordan (The Crying Game).  The film is about a transvestite Patrick "kitten" Braden, played by Cillian Murphy, who travels to London to search for his mother who abandoned him at birth.  Trouble seems to find Patrick wherever she goes, including getting mixed up with the IRA.  The movie is narrated by the lead character and each chapter of her life begins with a caption which gets old real fast.  I really wanted to like this film but honestly there were too many sub-plots and I felt as if the movie would never end.  There is some witty dialogue and fun costuming choices (70's scene).  The soundtrack is amazing, but alas the film failed to keep my interest and I regret renting it.  The film also stars Liam Neeson and is based on the novel by Patrick McCabe.

...Don't say I didn't warn you

xoxo, Sallie

The Departed
is a crime-thriller directed by Martin Scorsese.  It's set in Boston and follows the story of two young police officers on opposite sides of the Law.  One cop is in alliance with the Irish Mafia by night and infiltrates the Boston police by day.  The other is sent undercover to join the Mob and bring down the notorious Mafia Boss.

The film features an all star cast. 

It's a Split!!!

Sharita says "It was a let down."

Sallie says "Worth it!"

Shortbus is a story about New Yorkers who come to the exclusive club Shortbus to work out problems in their sexual relationships.

Sharita Says "Do your research first...but see it if you like films about New York, are comfortable with explicit sex, or are a pervert."

The Last Kiss is a film about relationships and Zach Braff stars in this melancholy tale of a young man going through a premature mid-life crisis.  Blythe Danner, Tom Wilkinson, Jacinda Barrett, Rachel Bilson and Casey Affleck star in this film.  Directed by Tony Goldwyn, this is a remake of the Italian film, L'Utimo Bacio.

Sallie says "Don't see it with your significant other...but see it."

Don't know what to rent this week and need a suggestion??? 

Sallie says "Lolita"

Director Stanley Kubrick's 1962 film version of Vladimir Nabokov's novel scandalized audiences -- and still shocks today. James Mason gives an amazing performance as Humbert.  Humbert is uncontrollably attracted to jailbait teen Lolita, played by Sue Lyon. Mason knows no good can come of his pursuit, but he continues despite the overwhelming reasons to stop.  Peter Sellers costars as Mason's nemesis, Clare Quilty.

Sharita says "Inside Man"

Dispatched to a crime scene where a bank robbery is in progress, police detective Keith Frazier (Denzel Washington) hopes to apprehend the cunning thief (Clive Owen) so he can make his case for a promotion. But when a savvy negotiator (Jodie Foster) with questionable motives arrives on the scene, an already unstable situation threatens to implode. Spike Lee directs this tense action-drama co-starring Willem Dafoe and Christopher Plummer.
