Reader nyjm, in comments following my review of Agora, just out on DVD, would like me to link my reviews to Netflix, for easy adding of films to rental queues. Is this something that many of you would find useful?

Once upon a time, a film this epic, this relevant, this emotional would have been celebrated as a great entertainment and important storytelling with something vital to say about the world today.

quick list: five great football movies that aren’t really about football

Tue, Oct 19, 2010
no comments yet
