Movie Review: Before The Devil Knows You're Dead
Reel Weekend | 11 January 2008
Veteran director of classics such as Dog Day Afternoon, Network and Serpico, Sidney Lumet returns to the director’s chair to bring to the screen this gritty crime drama, starring Philip Seymour Hoffman and Ethan Hawke as brothers whose attempt at a jewellery robbery goes disastrously wrong. Dark, brooding and morally corrupt, this is a film that avoids easy solutions or upbeat endings, and is all the better for it.
Movie Review: Charlie Wilson's War
Reel Weekend | 11 January 2008
Tom Hanks stars in the story of Charles Wilson, a womanising, party-loving Democratic congressman, who in the early 80s led a campaign to arm the freedom fighters of Afghanistan in their fight against the pesky Soviets. Legendary director Mike Nichols works from a script by West Wing creator Aaron Sorkin in a spiky satire that is already attracting awards attention. Julia Roberts and Philip Seymour Hoffman complete the excellent supporting cast.
