            Ridley Scott's ROBIN HOOD
            by George Bellefontaine
            Although Ridley Scott is rarely favored by the critics, he is one of my favorite filmmakers. Few directors today can bring a story and character(s) to life as well as he does, even though the studios often try to murder his work. In the case of ROBIN HOOD, he takes a totally different approach than...

            Something unusual from Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe
            by George Bellefontaine
            A GOOD YEAR

            Some may call it a romantic comedy but the romance is really secondary to the story of a highly successful London stock trader ( Russell Crowe) who changes from A-hole to a decent sort. This happens after he must return to the South of France ( winemaking country) to settle...

            The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford
            by George Bellefontaine

First there is the outstanding cinematography, not only of the landscapes but of the various nuances the camera explores of each character. Then there is the acting. Outstanding doesn't even come close to describing...
